Self help, because you are your greatest asset.
Diaries
Diaries, I used to find them a commitment. Given I have quite a busy schedule I never found the time to write in one. However, once I started, I couldn't stop. I find it a way to say things words can't explain. They don't even have to be private. If you feel like writing something down because speaking up isn't easy, start with that.

How to Stop Being Negative Through Taking Responsibility
I’ve started to believe that the way you approach situations is a choice, and from that choice, future opportunities present themselves in the way you want to perceive them. In essence, you make your own “luck.” That’s not to say the people that struggle have chosen to struggle. We all have our fair share of issues and hardships but—now especially—the temptation to stay a victim is palpable.

The 10 Most Helpful Ways to Become a Better You
#1 - Abandon your comfort zone. We always fear leaving our comfort zones—and never achieving anything extraordinary because we are afraid of what a bit of courage might cause. We must understand that our comfort zone is our enemy. It’s the little voice telling us to keep that job we know we hate, or to stay in our relationships we know we’re unhappy in, or to not go after a girl or boy we know we’re interested in. We stay in it because we are afraid of what facing adversity and humility feels like. We tend to get so afraid of being anything but “comfortable”, that we never end up pursuing our dreams, and always settle for mediocrity. We should abandon our comfort zones— and stop letting our fear of the unknown dictate what we can or can’t do with our lives. The world is ours for the taking, and we should make our lives exactly what we want to, regardless of who says otherwise.

Hey, Is Anyone Listening?
I recently moved to London after living in Ireland for five years and travelling to 45 countries during the same time, something that I would love to write about some day. Although I will always love Ireland with all my heart, being a guy from South America, used to massive and quite chaotic cities, I was missing all the buzz from a big metropole and due to nothing seemed to be flowing anymore on the other side of the Irish sea, I thought this would be the best opportunity for me to make the big move. Well, here I AM! Living the dream in one of my favourite spots in the whole world. Well, am I really?

12 Feet Down
The triumph I felt crawling out of the pool early one morning last summer should probably be reserved for Navy Seals and Olympic champions. Nevertheless, I wrapped a soft, oversized beach towel around my body, inhaled the calming scent of chlorine and exhaled pure, unadulterated triumph.

Take Back Your Power
How many times has someone made you upset, angry, broken your heart, disappointed you, or made you feel unloved or unworthy? You might say it happens all the time, but I'm going to tell you something radically different, something which you might find difficult to accept. The truth is that no one's ever done that to you... ever.

How to Cope with Loss?
Leaving. The little voice that has been inside your brain since you've known yourself. Some taking it seriously, some pushing it down; for fear or for reasons beyond themselves (and me). Obviously, everyone wants to spend spring break in Bora Bora, a week in Belize. But you notice this voice becoming louder and louder when, one day during work, you consider starting a new life in a small city in Colorado. However, when it starts approaching unbearable, the fear overcomes. Then, how to let go?

This Is Why Rejection Is a Good Thing
Have you ever thought you were in love only to be told by the one you admire that he or she wants to break up with you? Have you ever applied for a job and been told the organization or company chose someone else? Have you ever applied to a school or program and been declined entry?

5 Healthy Habits: Your Mind & Soul
There comes a time in our lives when it feels like the weight of the world lies right on our shoulders. I am no stranger to the stress and anxiety that a busy, yet goal-oriented lifestyle, can bring. Additionally, with added responsibility, whether it be personal, educational or business, comes a lot of added tension and pressure.
