Quest to Success:
Before we start, let's take a moment to clear your mind, relax, and refresh your thoughts. How many of us desire wealth and success? How many of us seek for a better lifestyle for our body, mind and soul? How many of us are willing to do whatever it takes to live a better lifestyle for our body, mind and soul in order to achieve wealth and success? These are all relative questions you should be asking yourself everyday if you're serious about your quest to success.

What Jordan’s Legacy and The Last Dance Teach Us About Change
Who else rewatched The Last Dance when it dropped on Netflix? As a basketball or Bulls’ fan in the 90’s, it’s hard not to be overcome by nostalgia when you see Jordan hit any of his legendary game-winning shots. But when examined closely, the docuseries is much more than just an ode to the best basketball player of all time (yes, we believe this to be undisputed). It’s a story about organizational greatness, and the teamwork, resilience, and passion required to achieve it. How does it apply to our lives today, personally and professionally?

Health Is The Real Wealth
I personally know of numerous people who bust their butt off for their job or business, working long hours, and who average around just 5 of sleep each night. They basically leave at the crack of dawn, and don't return home around 6pm-7pm, time enough for dinner, a shower, and at least a couple of hours with their family, before bedtime. As it is, some still come home to do more work. One particular friend has always stood by his motto of working hard and maximizing the hours he has awake, and then he can sleep when he's dead. I'm sure a lot of people around the world live life in the same manner, especially entrepreneurs and executives, who work their bum off to build profits for their respective businesses, yet sacrifice their sleep in the process, likely also family time. With the time spent within their business, another activity that often goes by the wayside, is exercise. With their stream of income on the line, the importance of creating profits is absolutely crucial, hence why they believe they need to work long hours, and sacrifice other aspects of life, because it's money they rely on, and what they believe determines their survival and enhances their future. Those who work in corporate jobs aren't much better either. Many people work long hours, and even work overtime unpaid, to remove any potential they may possibly be dismissed off the back of not meeting the company's requirements, and losing their income source altogether. Let's be honest, no matter what work we do, many of us place so much emphasis on, and prioritize any actions, that are income producing, or to do with money. We do it to ensure we have food on the table, to ensure we have a roof over our head, and to ensure we have some funds left over to live some sort of quality of life. At what cost though, are we doing so?

Crazy 2020, but a lot to be thankful for
Crazier than 2020 I started my year in my senior year of college in New Orleans. Stressed with with what I thought to be my final semester, I spent much of my time hitting my dab pen then hitting the books. I got a night job at a local gas station right as Mardi Gras rolled around. Showing up to work drunk every day ensured that I got fired within 2 weeks of starting. The party didn’t stop when Mardi Gras came to an end, and I stumbled back to my dorm at 3am for many nights afterwards. Becoming increasingly disillusioned, the school ended up sending me to University Medical Center for a psychological assessment. My discharge paperwork listed: “Schizoaffective Disorder, Alcohol abuse, THC use disorder, Current every day smoker, Psychosis, and Disorganized Schizophrenia”.

12 Habits of Highly Effective Entrepreneurs
One of the most important things you can learn about yourself and your goals is successful in people's habits. Habits are just that, patterns we develop over time that help us keep on track. For example, you may have a habit of taking off your shoes at the end of a meeting or the end of every day of work.

Passion, Love, Generosity And Hard Work
For many people, the ultimate goal is financial freedom and wealth. To them, it's about working their way up the corporate ladder, in order to receive an executive's salary, or to be generating substantial profits within their business, and with either of these results, they are classified as success. Either of these pathways lead to a higher income, and increases the potential to create wealth and financial freedom for oneself, but is this really success though? It's long time been considered by many, that money is what generates happiness, satisfaction, and fulfillment, in life, when the truth is, it doesn't. It's a myth that money solves all our problems, and that life can become totally stress and trouble free. Whilst, when used wisely and effectively, money can definitely be a beneficial commodity that can enhance our life, it's not what delivers happiness, satisfaction, and fulfillment in life, hence why it doesn't form the complete picture of success. Climbing the corporate ladder, or generating substantial profits within our own business, are definitely great achievements, there's no disputing that, but the question remains as to our true purpose behind achieving these goals. Are we really climbing the corporate ladder, or operating our own business, because we are genuinely passionate about the work we do, and we have a strong desire to serve, lead, encourage, uplift, and support others, or are we truly doing it for the sake of a higher income? The answer lies in how we greet each day, after waking from our sleep. Are we inspired and driven by our work, that we are excited and motivated about getting out of bed, to get stuck into another days' work, and do something we love, or are we simply dragging ourselves out of bed, dreaming about doing something more enjoyable and satisfying, yet are pretty much forcing ourselves to go because the pay is good?
