Happy Halloween!

I realized that I've been putting a lot of things off lately, which has been making me feel lazy.  So, this week, I will be focusing on getting those things done that have been on my to-do list for weeks, dare I say months.  I haven't fully grasped how time can just get away from me the way it does, but that's not the type of life I want to live.  I typically like to point out how I'm going to stop the bad habit, but I'm not exactly sure what to do here.  As always, I try to find the balance.  

It's the week of Halloween, and I couldn't be more excited.  For the first time, I live in a place where I will get trick-or-treaters!  I still have to buy and carve a pumpkin, but at least I can say I have all the candy I need.  Minus the several pieces that I've already eaten...  😋😉

Happy April Fools' Day!

I'm not a very creative person, and have never come up with something truly funny to do to my friends, family, or any roommates I've had over the years.  Maybe one day I'll be able to put some of the ideas below to good use.  Until then... these are just amusing.

Why Do People Do What They Do?

Last week, I attended a client meeting with several of my co-workers.  During said meeting, one of my co-workers, and good friend, got up to get water for our guests from a mini fridge in a cabinet located in the meeting room.  But, she wasn't really quiet or discrete about it, and proceeded to slam the cabinet doors, while our guests were speaking. Maybe it's because I've lived in an apartment for too long, and the sound of my neighbors slamming their doors and kitchen cabinets has become a big pet peeve of mine.  But, to me, her actions seemed a little rude.  It got me wondering... why do people do some of the things they do? After doing some Googling, it seems like there are many reasons for why people slam things like doors, cabinets, and toilet seats.  Reasons range from anger, lack of awareness, laziness, selfishness, bad manners, and lack of consideration for others.  I immediately did some self-reflection.  While I'm pretty good about not...

There is No Gain Without Struggle

We all struggle with something.  In our moments of struggle, it's impossible to think that other people could possibly be feeling the same hurt, frustration, and loneliness we are.  Remember you are not alone.  Struggling is a part of being human.  Without it, we would not appreciate the good things that we have.  Today, recognize that without struggle, we are not driven to be better.  You are better today, than you were yesterday.  Just keep going!  Keep taking steps every day to work towards your goals of personal development.
