In this article, I’m going to tell you to do something that may seem oxymoronic. It’s something that I’m struggling to do myself. I grew up with a lot of fear, and I’ve slowly been conquering them. One of them being my fear of water. What if I told you that some of the most…

I think you read this from here, almost every time I write a new blog post. Our world is so “go, go, go.” We place a lot of emphasis on taking action, and if we aren’t doing something, we are doing nothing. As if nothing was a bad thing. The absence of something is very…

When arguing with another person, every rebuttal can feel like sweet revenge. It’s definitely the case when you feel passionate about a subject, and another person has the audacity to try to prove you wrong.

The greatest life lesson I learned last year is to not be scared to go for something you want. I guess there’s two lessons another one is to be authentic in everything you do. I’ll try to find a way to connect these things together because the two together will help me accomplish a lot…

A thing that makes me unique is that I’m a deep thinker. I don’t like thinking on the surface level, or short-term thinking. The decisions I make should make a difference beyond just me and the situation at hand. I think that’s what makes me a good problem solver. When I come up with a…
