How To Reach Your Goals and Remove Your Blocks
We live in a society that tells us when we want something, we should let nothing and no one stand in our way, to go out and make our dreams come true. What happens when we are the ones standing in our own way? When we are creating our own blocked and slowed progress? The three things that we all face in life are the same three bricks that make up the walls that block the road to success and achievement. Fear, doubt, and resentment are the main causes of our inability to progress and achieve our goals. It is only through self examination that we may begin to remove these blocks in our paths and move ahead towards our reward.

Make Your Disadvantages Your Advantages
We all have disadvantages. They can be anything from upbringing to a dead end job. Anything that may be a disadvantage can be turned to an advantage. The key to turning things around is to use your situation. What I mean by that is learn everyday to see how you ended up in your current position.

Positivity Hour
I bet you're wondering. What is this "positivity hour" you speak of? Well allow me to explain a little bit of how I came up with the idea. Two years ago along my journey, I was going through a lot of problems and living at my older sister's house. It was a hard time for me and I was unable to think clearly. I had no job, money, and with all that going on around me— my vibrations had began to drop. Now, you may think that even though I am a spiritual person that I don't have issues. Lol, think again, I have problems like everyone else living in this universe. I knew that I had to do something to protect my energy and my spiritual health. Throughout my days, I would always catch the angel numbers 11:11.

Living Through the Lens of Should
We view our lives and this world through different lenses. These lenses are shaped and formed by the beliefs and agreements we make with ourselves. Some are dark, some rose coloured, others pessimistic. Personally, I prefer optimism. The lenses individuals choose to see the world through are endless—unique to each person—but common threads can be found.

Making a Living Out of Not Having a Life
Bonjour. My name is Laura and I'm here to fascinate you with the world of colorful truths. Based on the well known fact that this generation of kids ages 18-25 are extremely spoiled, what is a way to bridge the age gap and have them start adulting early? Well let me inform you on this thing I like to call "revving ones engine." Basically it consists of experimenting with challenging tactics. If you challenge yourself everyday, this combats laziness, raises self esteem and boosts productivity. It can also have an effect on your libido😉 Needless to say...all of you who are chillaxin on the couch behind your screen trollin the social media world....You're missing out on endless potential. You are the ambassadors of the future!! You have the potency to change this era (and stigma) of this generational gap where kids are programmed with a sense of entitlement. All by resurrecting your innate desire to serve. The word serve has many connotations...in this context it is directly linked with your true passions. Yes, you read correctly...you can earn an income doing what you love. Be a duke of all trades. Start with a poem, a guitar riff, a sandcastle. The recognition will come...you only need to begin. What's beyond your front door?

Discovering Time Management II
During the first week of planning in order to find my 12 extra hours, I found that attempting to micro plan my week put too many constraints on my psyche and my day. It didn’t allow for moments to waver, and neither did it allow for life’s little roadblocks. Trying to plan out every hour can have an adverse effect on attempts to organize and maximize time.

It's Not About Them
I got up this morning with no intention to write. I had been sick over the past weekend and after staying in bed for two days, I finally decided to get up and shower. With all of this new found energy, I decided to do something that I have been wanting to do for a while now. I decided to write. I wrote an article a few months back but haven't had the itch to write since then that is until today.

Fight the “Good” Fight
Every day I wake up to the news, every day it's the same: violence, killing, crime, hate. Currently there is a race for government offices, so we get to see commercials about corruption, lying, and people whose only concern is themselves. We take this in and try to decide who is the lesser of many evils. We watch the news and think why do they show all these horrible events. But this is what we have all accepted, like it or not. If it's not violent, if it's not a crime, it's not news. I am guilty like many others of seeing "fluff stories" and saying, really is that news? We are bored with the good. Nobody wants to hear about someone paying for someone else's cup of coffee. Nobody believes in a commercial about a politician who does things for others just because. We all hate and our saddened by these mass killings, but what can we do about that it? Whatever side you are on, on gun laws, I doubt anyone is on the side of children being killed. What I am writing is not about gun laws, I am not debating which party is better. What I am writing about is being "good." We can't change everything in the world, but we can try to make things better. For the record I do not believe anyone needs a weapon that’s only use is to kill multiple people quickly. I mean, bombs aren’t legal. Why is that? Because, there is only one reason to have them; mass killing.

No, We Can't Make It Alone
When we are born, we spend about 8 months inside the women that'll give birth to us. Then, one day we pop out and say hello to the world, where the doctor, nurses and the person who brought us to the world wait for us to react to this new environment. In some cases, our association with the main person on this event might not be positive which becomes a factor for why we feel so alone since we're kids and in isolation and depression. There's a phrase I've always heard. "We were born alone and alone we'll die. I don't know who invented that ton of ridiculousness because I've realized that the phrase couldn't be more wrong.
