Self help, because you are your greatest asset.
Why Every Writer Needs A Dog
A recent scientific study suggests that walking has therapeutic benefits that may even exceed those of running. Apparently the action of walking raises endorphin levels and this has a positive effect on the way we feel and our thought processes. For a long time I was a long distance runner over both marathon and ultra marathon distances. I was a lot younger then and eventually my knees sat me down and had a long chat. Basically, they explained, I could continue running if I insisted, but that they were simply not going to participate. To soften the blow, they suggested that they would be prepared to participate in as much walking as I wanted to do.

Leader of the Pack
Hello dolls, I’m put my inspirational hat back on😂. Thank you for letting me vent last week. This week’s post is about being a leader by knowing the difference between a LOSS & a LESSON. It is so important because you have the younger generation (your kids, nieces, nephews, & little cousins) looking up to you and the legacy you are going to leave behind. Show them that it is okay to fuck up but get up and do better, cause that’s what real BOSSES do!

Trial and Error
We are all born with the inability to function on our own, we are open and vulnerable to the world in hopes someone will care for us. Needing someone to lean on in order to survive because as newborns we cannot adapt to the new responsibilities of life. We have a clean slate, unmarked and ready for the world to make its first imprint. As we grow older we grow accustomed to the new realities, we learn and grow and celebrate the big milestones that are too soon taken for grated. We become fixated on the next step, the next stage all while not realizing that we are missing precious and memorable moments.

What Do You Want The Power To Do?
What do you want the power to do? That is well known banks advertising slogan and branding. An interesting question that we probably have been asked in one form or another. Maybe as kids we talked about what superpower we would want to have. Perhaps we’ve played the game Would You Rather.

Treat Yourself: The Best Gifts Men Can Give Themselves
With so much going on at the moment, it's easy for men to ignore the importance of self-care. One of the fun things about manhood is that you never fully grow out of being a child, and no one expects you to. After all, boys will be boys, right?

Words
There's a special language within you. Honestly, how would you know if nobody told you, right? I use to be afraid to do something amazing at one point in my life. So it kept me from bringing out more potential, a lot earlier. Now, were just getting started! See, I found my language, so I'm here to write to you today. Through experience, don't ever neglect to love yourself on the inside. Don't forget about you. The sooner you start to realize that, is the earlier your progress can step forward and start speaking for you. The language you speak within, is the compass that can hinder you, or direct you, healthily. Of course there are mistakes that are made a long the way, but when you find your language. Oh man, what does it take to speak a language? A Voice! You knock out two birds with one stone. Finding your voice, saying no to the chit chatter around you (inside yourself), and saying YES to the greater things that are meant for you.

Letting Go to Hold On
The above video by YouTube channel Einzelgänger is about the Taoist perspective on letting go. Being in a flow state is mentioned many times throughout Taoist teachings and it's something I struggle with. There's a part in the video discussing how an archer who is fixated on a material prize will not shoot as well as he truly can because the focus is on the future rather than the present. As a future thinker myself, that really hit me.
