Pure Confidence
Self-confidence is hugely important. It determines what levels of success you achieve and how much joy you have in your life. It can raise or lower the quality of your treasured relationships. I don’t feel anyone formally verses us in the art of being confident, and while our parents may have encouraged us to believe that we could do something (if we were lucky enough to have that level of support), I don’t feel we grew up realising its significance.

The Money Jar.
The year was 2011, and I and my young son were living in income-based housing in a somewhat rough part of town. I was barely supporting us through odd job and online gigs. I was fortunate enough to qualify to not have to pay rent on our apartment but I still had the rest of the bills to pay, including a ridiculous propane bill in the winter. Before anyone scoffs at this, let me tell you this is not fun, it's not easy, it downright blows. Living in income-based housing is two steps away from being homeless, and there is a stigma that comes with that, which is very hard to overcome.

What is Money?
'Money makes the world go around' as many times as we heard that phrase, theres some truth to the statement. We all need money to pay our monthly bills and rent. We need it to provide food and water for our families. We need it for valuable resources and to start our own business.

You Do Have Time-
Have you ever uttered these words: "There just isn't enough time in the day”? I know I have. I mean, that's just how it feels sometimes, right? Between work, kids, chores – when is there actually a moment for us regular people to do something that we want to do?

Have You Faced Rejections Like Everyone: Here Is How to Move On
Let’s face it. We all have been rejected various times in our lives. The other day, I was checking my mails to gauge what’s happening with the stories or my freelancing proposals sent to many publishing houses and companies.

A Simple Question to Help You Find Your Place In Life
What do you want to do with your life? This was the most challenging question for me to answer when I was a teenager. No chemistry question could compete with this one, despite how terrible I was at chemistry.

Six Habits of Deeply Miserable People
The fact is that many of us sleepwalk through life, totally unaware that actually, we’re not happy at all. We have all the trimmings of the perfect life — we have the right hobbies, we get the promotion, we have 2.4 children, a golden retriever, and a white picket fence.

Just Wondering
Entry 1: In my teenage years, I thought that adulthood was going to be great. In my head, I was going to get married have a few kids, graduate from college and be great. But DID life open up a can of whoop a** or not. I’m married with more than a few kids (which is great) but I haven’t graduated. I am afraid of moving forward or something because I just can’t put forth the effort to do better. Now I have tried and tried but each time I failed. And the way life is failure is FAILURE. It’s just hard to come back from. Though they want you to think, “hey, when you fail, you could get back up and try again.” Then sooner or later you’d succeed. I don’t know if it’s just me but ummm. I have failed plent of times. Actually too many time to count and my whole adulthood FAILURE. I’m yet to actually reach a real goal and I’m 26.

Slice of my life
My story. I can tell you now that it didn't start off all that interesting, even now I'm sure some wont think it is, but I like writting and I think I want to share it with someone, or at least whoever is willing to listen. I intend for this story to be entirely non fiction, tell it like it is kinda thing only I will be changing names and places for privacy. (Also on a side note you'll have to excuse any typos or words missing spaces, my laptop needs replacing as it's old and a little broken).
