Man, I have been hearing an abundance of people say that they are freakin' exhausted. Makes sense. The "pressure" of the Christmas season, trying to maintain social standards and putting everyone in front of your own needs can be draining. I found myself I this predicament a time or two. It didn't feel good, trying to replace my love for my son with material things because I was working all the time. I had the mindset, "I have to do this for him. I have to work 7 days a week

Your childhood wasn’t ideal. Now adult relationships are somewhat a struggle and you have no idea what kind of parent you are aiming to be? We got you. I have been thinking about how two kids can have the same parents and one prospers positively, while the other takes on their parents habits and lifestyle. Why is it that sometimes negative people teach you the exact way you don't want to be? And sometimes we follow their paths? It's mindset and having someone interact with th

Goodbye “Self 1” Goodbye Ego + Judgement Do you guys even know how much “bigger” our game gets when we let go of ego and judgement, let’s call it our “self 1,” and focus on our “self 2,” reality? Think of all the people who’ve done you wrong. You can either be spiteful and pessimistic, or you can buck up and get over your ego and look at it as a learning experience. What is this trying to teach you? How are you going to come out of this situation as a better, more evolved per

Why is it so important to live by PURPOSE? Most people have never even thought about writing their PURPOSE, let alone living by it! People look at me like I’m cracked in the head when I ask if they’ve written their PURPOSE. They look at me like I am some type of foreign creature because I am so passionate about the MAKE IT HAPPEN planner and all that it’s about. I first wrote PURPOSE 10 years ago, and for the most part, it’s remained the same. Each year I add and even take so

Being in tune with your mental health is a huge part of understanding your PURPOSE. You may feel like your life is a rollercoaster of emotions, and that’s so flippin normal. What is important is understanding why you’re feeling the way you are. I know you’ve all heard of my scissors of cutting out the negative bullshit in your life, but it’s so important. If you find yourself constantly feeling anxious or annoyed and irritated, look at what is making you feel like that. If yo

Except the coach is yourself and half time is 2018. Here we are, the year is half way done. But we still have half way to go! Make it count. If you have PURPOSE written out, reevaluate your actions and contributions thus far in the year. Feeling good about that? Awesome! Don't change anything and keep doing you. Get sick to your stomach because you know you had good intentions but didn't follow through on any of them? Write out your ideal scene. Go to your planner and look at

TGIF: Can be so controversial & for good reason. If you are like me and 42% of the population in the United States, you work weekends. SO, THANK GOODNESS I GET TO WORK THIS WEEKEND? Wowsa. But seriously, THANK GOODNESS you get the opportunity to expand your workdays in a week to the weekend too. It's basically free time you get to accomplish endeavors. That may mean on Monday, when everyone is just getting to their start of the workweek, you get to go explore nature in a kaya

A friend as defined by Webster is this: “Friend: a person whom one knows and with whom one has a bond of mutual affection.” A friend to ME: People who truly care if you are succeeding, happy, healthy are those who are actually friends. I’ve said it a million times, “people who don’t have a deep sense of meaning, lean on instant gratification and pleasure to fulfil the void.” How can we avoid? By writing out PURPOSE and living by it! It’s seriously as simple as that. Bonus poi
