Self help, because you are your greatest asset.
The Power of You
In early 2017, my life was pretty simple, straightforward, and—as strange as it is for me to think about in hindsight—completely bland. I was 20 years old and a full-time law student. I worked my part-time retail job on the weekends, and I spent time with my girlfriend on my days off. I saw friends from time-to-time, but for the most part, I kept to myself and was focused on my grades and my career prospects.

My Transformation Story
January 21, 2019 My transformation story starts about six years ago—it was January 2013, I was severely depressed, overweight, and I had absolutely no hope for the future. I remember I had thought that the world was going to end on December 21, 2012 like they had been predicting for many years leading up, and then when the world didn't end like it was supposed to, I found myself hopeless in January 2013 still breathing, still alive, but feeling completely lost.

Why I Changed My Name at 25-Years-Old and How Does It Feel
Imagine for a minute. Yesterday, you were still responding to the name “Karen,” and suddenly today you are Allie. It is official; it is on your workstation, on your passport, on your bank account—just “Allie” everywhere.

Things to Let Go of in the New Year
2019 is here and we're still finding ourselves somewhere we don’t belong. Some of us are still living in the past, while some of us are just living in the future, but there are some of us who are still struggling with their present.

Are You an Old Soul?
What is numerology? The beginning of numerology is somewhat of a mystery. Some of the first written records of numerology appear in Egypt and Babylon. There is also compelling evidence that numerology was used thousands of years ago in China, Rome, Japan, and Greece. Numerology has been found to stem back all the way to BC a practice even our ancestors were familiar with.

Adversity
Many extraordinary people have come out and brought interesting insights to our world. The old phrase, "maybe things happen for a reason" comes to mind here. If someone had never come across a misfortune then what they brought into the world wouldn’t be part of our history. I believe Horace’s quote because there is so much one needs to think about. The only reason why we have Google is because somebody had a dream about it. It all depends on how we look at our misfortunes, either in a positive or a negative way.

Making 2019 Your BEST Year Yet
How often do we maintain our New Year's Resolutions? For most, we can endure the change for a few weeks, maybe a month, before slipping back into our old habits. But why is this? Why would committing to something that is beneficial to us be a burden instead of a priority?

Learning to Love Myself
Before this year I had spent most of my life craving and begging for validation and acceptance from my relationships with others. My decisions based upon the reactions I wanted from those around me and my heart constantly searching for a person to come around and validate that I was worthy of attention and admiration. Each relationship I held with a death grip, afraid to lose that sense of self-worth that I had defined based upon the affirmations that they spoke. When they were drained by my constant need of reassurance and broke away from me, I was left with this sense of feeling worthless and broken. On to the next, I searched for another person to complete in me what was broken, learning nothing from the time before.

Oh Look a Squirrel
I wasn’t going to write anything tonight or for the next few, days but I have some thoughts I need to get down. I’m not one for New Years. I don’t need a party or a bar or a club, in fact I’ll probably be asleep by 10 PM tonight, which is my norm. However, I understand that New Years night and day are important for many.

The Power of Habit. Top Story - January 2019.
December is an interesting month for most of the modern world as people get together with their families, eat a surplus amount of food, and exchange gifts or perform other religious acts. This holiday is quickly followed by an entire week of shopping deals, in which people are likely to participate considering they are still in the "money-spending mood."
