Values to Live By

“True success is reaching our potential without compromising our values” Muhammad Ali Over the past 2 years, I’ve begun to grasp what Muhammad Ali said. I’m understanding that without value, there’s no direction, there’s no standard by which one lives their life. Around the New Year, I spend a good amount of time reflecting on…… Continue reading Values to Live By

Benefits of a Weekly Brain Dump

Last night, my dad called to chat about the2020 King of the Baggers Race that I had sent him a link to (Indian Motorcycles won, so this girl is quite happy). The conversation then turned to everything that needs to be done when him and my mom sell the house. Which led to brain dumps…what…… Continue reading Benefits of a Weekly Brain Dump

Just Do It

Going into 2020 my motto was “Just Do It” and “Make It Happen.” In the past, I never really had words that I lived by, or at least not anything that was constantly in my mind. I have subtle reminders, like “perseverance” tattooed on my neck in Braille. As well as, “All the strength you…… Continue reading Just Do It

Forgiveness, Friendship, and Fat

With the weather starting to cooperate here in New England, it’s actually feeling like spring. To take advantage of this, I’ve been making it a habit to get out for a walk every day. On my walks, I tend to throw on a podcast that is somewhere between the topics fitness, nutrition, and lifestyle. Thursday…… Continue reading Forgiveness, Friendship, and Fat
