Finding passion through misery
When I started thinking about my passions, I really was unsure what I had to say. Why would anyone care what I had to say about anything? But then I realized that so many people have been exactly where I am, some many people are exactly where I am.

Why Confidence Is Not Inherent, It’s The Skill Set, That We All Have To Learn.
Confidence is nothing, but to trust yourself and your abilities. No one is born with confidence. It’s a skill, and you have to learn it. Confidence is vital in almost everyone’s life. However, there are thousands of people who are struggling to find confidence in their selves.

Combining Passions
I came across this page in my Facebook and thought I would submit an article to share my passion for sewing/creating doll fashions. I have been sewing since I was 14 years old, having taken home economics in high school and have never stopped.

Tuesday Quote Of The Day (Willpower Is Essential)
Life is demanding, life is stressful, and life is challenging. I think we all know that much. We surely couldn't be criticized to come home, after another busy and energy sapping day at work, just to completely unwind and relax on the couch in front of the television. By the time we get home in the late afternoon, or early evening, we feel exhausted as it is, but then to cook dinner and clean up afterwards, maybe even get the kids organized and ready for bed also, we feel more than justified to having a couple of hours to ourselves, just to do something more leisurely and enjoyable. There are other options for us, but we tend to turn away from them because they require energy and effort. For example, we could go to the gym perhaps, because we failed to exercise again today, and we know that exercise is vital to our health, but we feel tired as it is, and not to mention, it's too cold to even so much as step outside just to even get to our car. We could perhaps hop on the internet and look at better working options, such as researching about business management, or finding a better job for ourselves, because we immensely hate the job that we are currently at, but it's more enjoyable staying on the couch to scroll through Facebook, after all. Maybe we could even apply ourselves to the actions that are working towards achieving our goals, and the life we desire, for those couple of hours, but it's more relaxing and enjoyable to just stay on the couch and watch our favorite television shows.

What Being Late On Rent Taught Me About A “Poor” Mentality
As a 27 year old business owner, being late on rent isn’t something you want to happen. Well, no one really wants to be late paying rent. It’s scary when the first of the month comes around, and you really don’t know what you are going to do.

Magic vs Logic
The idea about the placebo effect has been crossing my mind lately. You know the experiment, when two groups of people are told they've been given the same medicine (or what have you) when really group A was given the actual medicine and group B was given a sugar pill? This was and still is conducted to test the reliability and effectiveness of medication.

What A Day!!!
Have you ever had a day that was so perfect, amazing, and you did not want it to end? Most of us have had those days that we wish we could capture it with one shot, and put it in a frame. Maybe it was your first kiss, first taste of a food that was so delightful you want to savor the taste forever, or if you have seen something that was so beautiful you want to lock it away in your memory forever.

Message from a Fawn at Dawn
Moving from Manhattan to the no-cell-service, summit of a foothill north of Boulder, Colorado was quite a jump. It was a transition from sprinting home at night to make sure no dangerous human was following me, to hurrying up the dog walks in case a mountain lion was watching me. It was sirens and street chatter to deep gusts of mountain winds or the soft falling of snow. It was waking up every morning and looking out the window to my right, to see the same old coffee shop with the same, expansive lines winding around the street corner, versus waking up in the morning, looking to my right, and seeing, well, this - the unexpected.
