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?

My Journey
My Journey Through Language I was born in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia, and was adopted and brought to America soon after. I do not know how I was cared for as an infant there or if anything happened to me there that would affect me later in life. But as a child, I was always shy. In elementary school, I was good at making friends with my peers but, I always had a problem talking to adults. Maybe it was because I had a slight lisp or even just because I'm an introvert, but it got so "bad" that my mother, a 3rd-grade teacher at the time, felt I should go to speech therapy. From my perspective, that didn't help. My journey through language has been rough. I’ve been pushed around a lot. Being taught to do one thing and then later on in life told it was wrong, to being silenced for months because it was the way of stripping my identity. My relationship with language has taken me down many different roads, but I feel like I’ve finally found my voice.

On fear of failure in modern times
I once attended a high school reunion. I was 20, a college student with a boyfriend, good grades and a social life; my future looked promising. That was 10 years ago. Now, the sole thought of attending another one of those makes me feel dizzy.
