It's common and understandable after days of labor to feel like one of our main freedoms is to do what we want by doing nothing. But let's be realistic it's not about toxic productivity but remembering the joy in learning and daily tasks. I, for one, have always enjoyed the maintenance of the things I cherish, including relationships as an example. So why not learn to take your time further by learning things or relearning to love the things you do know and once enjoyed?

In a world that constantly changes and so does the mind when pulled in many directions. I feel one of the best ways to combat becoming a drifter, is to have and build a plan around where you're going also with the reality in mind we're getting older. Even if that means hitting some roadblocks and revamping a plan it's better to have one for your life than not having one.

I believe failure is not a state of true being but an idea lived in. If we learn to look and these moments as opportunities to reroute growth then we'd feel less like failures and more like eternal students striving to learn through natural trial and error.

Learning to commit to anything worthwhile especially yourself can really help propel you towards what we so dearly seek. Many times I missed out on great opportunities because I gave up right before their attainment. Things take time undoubtedly but we can help to keep our faith in our goals when we know, feel n' see the results of our commitment.

This one is in memory of a dear friend of mine who just passed away this week, Rest In Power Winnie! The only way we can grow, teach and support each other is to support ourselves first. Finding the strength to do so isn't a task for the faint of heart but it can lead to exponential growth for anyone who takes upon the journey.

Seeking counsel from those you love, a stranger, etc should never feel like a weakness because it is not. I have found that it has become one of my greatest strengths in growing through this school of life.  Support comes from reaching out when you feel the need and taking the best of that support as needed.

I was a guest on a show earlier and the question was "Is being a nice guy enough and why do we finish last?". I wanted to speak on this but from a broader perspective, I feel we don't finish last we quite emotionally/literally put ourselves last.

I have found as a growing co-creator with the universe it can be a little stressful trying to manage your time between life and creative endeavors. Here are a few of my thoughts on finding and growing into my own balance.

If you have no self control in your finances or life and can't seem to keep up with your own appetites there is a problem? Sometimes the key to our struggles is in viewing them from a different lens and making a few adjustments. Just a clean up in your thought process and relationship with your resources, may just be the quick fix you've been look for (sarcasm).  

Let's us remember the precious and the rare are not always easy to come by. Be Patient, stay open and keep up the inner work new friends are everywhere. Sometimes we can have an open mind but a closed heart, let this not keep us from connecting with other like souls.
