Self help, because you are your greatest asset.
5 Ways to Combat Negative Self-Talk
Haven't started on that project because you know you're going to fork it right up? Do you wake up paralyzed with guilt about the 47 people you haven't responded to? Are you trapped in a cycle of feeling bad about feeling bad???

Don't Get Walked Over
I was once one of these people who was very relaxed, very easy-going, and would always go out of my way to avoid any conflict or confrontation with anybody. I was always someone who was very gentle natured, courteous, kind, and considerate. In fact, I am still all of the above, however I have made a subtle change to the way I conduct myself nowadays, and that is, I no longer live my life pleasing others. I no longer accept when people try to take advantage of me and walk all over me. You see, as someone that is easy-going, gentle natured, caring, courteous, considerate, and kind, there are unfortunately many people who love to take advantage of these behaviors, and they do so for personal gain. They see it as a perfect opportunity to manipulate that person into doing what pleases them, even if it is of detriment to the person they are taking advantage of, or manipulating. It's just an unfortunate characteristic that so many people possess in this world, which is of course selfishness. So many people will totally disregard, disrespect, and dishonor others, as long as there is something in which they can personally benefit from. The biggest benefit that people look for in life is to have things the way they want them, of course. Basically whatever is convenient for themselves. The thing is, people just don't about trying to create circumstances to suit and benefit themselves, they go out about trying to manipulate others into being the person they want them to be, or doing what they want them to do. The worse part to all of this is that those people who do try to walk all over us, manipulate us to do what they want, and influence us to believe what they believe, are often our own parents, friends, partner, and other loved ones. The very people who supposedly love and care for us, who supposedly want the best for us in life, are often the culprits who walk all over us, and because of our relationship with them, we often become a victim of their manipulative games.

Why You Should Aim for Imperfect Productivity
The internet is jam-packed with stories of people showing off their working schedules. “I wake up at 5 AM. I do yoga between 05:15 and 6:00. I turn off all distractions and work through till 12:00.” Blah, blah, blah…

Am I relaxed yet?
Since the pandemic started, I realized more and more how much I needed some “me” time. I had long been hustling and running from place to place, and now I felt the need to just… stop. However, like any productivity-addict, here is how I felt about relaxing:

Why You Should Live Alone in Your 20s
Your 20s are your experimentation decade. You should take risks, accept every challenge, take in as much of the world as you can. Every time you say yes to something new, you are one step closer to figuring out who you are and who you want to be.

How to Turn a Pandemic into a Tool for Success
When the Covid-19 pandemic began over a year ago, I walked into it with mental health challenges such as anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Without going into all the morbid details we all remember, it didn't take long for me to discover that a lot of us were dealing with the same issues: weight gain, exacerbated depression and anxiety, and unprecedented stress that caused physical repercussions like fatigue, headaches, and sleeplessness. It seemed that while the virus began to rage through the country, our avoidance of it began to rage against us as well, myself included.

Why We Don't Trust Others or Ourselves
In a world where fabricated reality abounds and where we are surrounded by an endless supply of opinions, there are many places to look for answers. We may have questions about career opportunities, relationships, childcare, travel destinations, cooking tips, or how not to be bored on a Saturday night. All one has to do to find solutions is search online and see what hundreds or even thousands of people have to say about it.

My Journey Thus Far
My life has been anything but perfect...but I feel like we all have our own version of a "Broken Road" that we have travelled down. I mean, nobody's life has been perfect right? That would be an impossibility, to have every single thing in your life go exactly the way it should? First of all, you don't start out choosing your life's path, your parents do, so before you even know what you want...they have started molding you into who they "think" you should be, but that is normal right?

Sister Circle
March 30, 2021 Dear Nikki You do not know me, but you are an inspiration. You have been through things publicly. I feel that does make you stronger as a person. Personality even allows you to make it through any rough time that comes your way. I listen to your music and can relate to some. I love the beats on others. No matter what though, you always have strength.
