Have you ever wondered why is at the end of some weeks you thought you were productive, but you look back and realized that you haven’t done anything to move you forward in your purpose or goals?

There’s no doubt that summer is usually a time of refreshment. As the sun gets brighter and the days become longer, we all have an urge to slow down and relax.

Many set goals, but only a few people have set their mind to actually achieving them. At this point, they don’t have a goal, but a dream because they haven’t taking action.

There is nothing like growing up as a kid with a teacher as your parent. I remember sitting in last period, moments before summer vacation, anxiously counting down the last minutes of the day.

Have you ever made it to a point in your life where you’ve reached a personal plateau? After months and months of working hard in the gym, you’re finally starting to reach your fitness goals.

From the time we are young, we’re taught that education is the only way to have a thriving life. As we leave high school we’re handed a catalog of careers to choose from in hopes that they will lead to promising careers and plump paychecks.

Before last year, I never knew how important my thoughts were to my success. No, I’m not talking about worldly success, but success in my mental and spiritual health.

For most of us, January is a month of planning or testing. Some of us are just getting around to setting our yearly goals, while the rest of us are finalizing and testing them out. Either way, it’s an opportunity for us to start fresh, pursuing the things that matter to us most.

If you couldn't tell by now, I love January. To me, it represents a month of new beginnings. And although any time is a great time to set and start new goals, there’s something exhilarating about closing the chapter of a year and starting anew with the next.
