Adulthood: My Story
Exactly a week after my high school graduation I was rolling back and forth on the couch while cartoons played on the television at three in the morning. My whole body was shaking and my heart was racing like I had been slurping on half a pot of coffee half an hour before. While whispering to myself "You screwed up. You screwed up. You screwed up." over and over under the catchy theme song, I was hyperventilating to the point that I wished I could pass out just so the thumping in my chest would stop. What exactly was causing me to cry hysterically and wish for the sweet relief of sudden death, you may ask? The fact that legally I counted as an adult while having no idea what I was doing with my life.
Kendall EarlPublished 6 years ago in MotivationWhat It Takes to Become a Real Expert
"Expert" It's a title that is so overused today that it's honestly lost its shine. I remember attending a webinar from ClickBank several years ago about affiliate marketing. One thing they pushed was for people to call themselves experts.
Eric BurdonPublished 6 years ago in MotivationHow To Win Every Day
What do you consider winning your day to consist of? You do not need to do as much as people think you need to do to win every day. I am going to give you an easy tool that will help you win every day, and help you string as many winning days together as you can. If you begin to win consistently every single day it will become a habit, and when winning becomes a habit for you, success arrives to you effortlessly. The tool that will allow you to do just this is called a power list. I recommend getting a journal for your power list, it is important that you write it down on paper. Every day is a new page, and every day you place the date and five tasks that you must complete that day, or tasks that you think will help you if you did them. Only five tasks, that is not a lot of effort when you think about it. As you go through your day begin to check your tasks off as they are done. Once, and only once you have finished and checked off all five tasks have you won the day.

Michelle SchultzPublished 6 years ago in MotivationHello, World
Things always happens for a reason. They is no greatness without hard work. There is no winning without effort. There is no change without sacrifice. And as long as life passes by most people discover that. Some younger, others older, some even go through life without really understanding what this idea of pushing yourself to a goal means.

Hey everyone! Welcome to Day 16! Hope everyone is still writing along. I'm writing as my two-year-old naps so... let's get started before she wakes up. The quote for today is one of my personal favorites: "This is how you do it: You sit down at the keyboard and put one word after another until it's done. It's that easy, and that hard." - Neil Gaiman

Am I the only one who believed that we are on earth for a better reason than just the simple way of life that is 8am to 4pm day work?

Michelle SchultzPublished 6 years ago in MotivationI'm starting a blog
I've never had a blog before, but I figure here is as good a place as any to have one. It shouldn't be too hard right? Sharing your life with a bunch of total random strangers on the internet that may or may not be serial killers or psychopaths. Or maybe just a bunch of internet trolls. Anyways, I'm getting side tracked. I was going to tell you about today.
Anna PalmerPublished 6 years ago in MotivationIntense Changes
It's been a while and it truly sucks to be away from the things you love. For me it's writing, among other things. I've had some intense life changes happening all year long. I've moved cross country and I'm readjusting to a familiar city. It's nostalgic and interesting to be home. A lot of people don't move back to their hometown once they leave. Statistically, 58 percent of people between 25-35 return to their hometown while ten percent will return after the age of 35. What normally makes people return? Family, community, familiarity, higher paying positions or lower living expenses. For me, it was almost all of the above.
Karina NistalPublished 6 years ago in MotivationLifetime List
As a person with a type A personality, I have a deep affection for lists. Anything I can put on a list and later check off makes me feel happier. I have daily, weekly, and monthly to-do lists. It helps me feel organized and accomplished. Whether this is true or in my head, who knows?

So. Everybody wants to be a star, right? That's what I thought I wanted more than anything for the longest time. I'd lay in bed fantasizing about acceptance speeches and stadium performances; proving my grade-school bullies wrong about me and anything else that's supposed to go right for the protagonist in a YA novel.
