How to Defy the Odds
What are the odds that you should be alive right now reading this article and my website? We don’t normally think about the likelihood of our existence on this planet but I believe that it’s something to ponder and be thankful for. We tend to not think about the odds behind being alive and breathing but it is quite fascinating if you do a little bit of research. According to Business Insider, the probability of you or any other human being existing comes out to 1 in 10^2,685,000.

You Were Not Created to Fail
You were NOT created to FAIL. I recently had a life changing experience. I had lateral ligament ankle surgery. I suffered so many ankle sprains I had stretched my ligaments beyond repair. I have been spraining my ankle once every other year since I was 12-years-old. I am an active person. I am a runner, a hiker, a dancer...it really took a toll on me and it was incredibly tough to make the decision to go through with surgery. Also, because I was afraid of losing my job. A job I didn't like but paid me a decent salary.

Sickness
Fear is only two of many different ways we perceive it to be. True fear which you acknowledge as danger causes you to freeze, hide, or flee. Then there's irrational fear which is a phobia, but fear could also be a sickness for the people who think very differently than the "normal" way of thinking. Fear can cause damage to a person's brain and impair the memories, so their way of thinking is distorted.

Improving Yourself at Work and in Your Personal Life
Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen. I am a United States Marine on his lunch break and thought I would share some tips and advice I've picked up during my life. I see a lot of brand new marines, "Boots," as we call them come to the motor pool each week. They tend to do one of two things, neither of which is helpful to anyone. They either run and hide trying not to be noticed; in which case they come back the next day able to contribute nothing more than the day before; or they continuously get in the way of someone trying to do their job. There is healthy in between, however, it seems to be hard for the average person to grasp. Here's a few tips to not only be a better help but to make your day goes as smoothly as possible with the minimum amount of ass-chewings.

Navigating Young Adulthood with No Parental Guidance
When you're a kid, the phrase "Mother knows best" usually means that you have to do something that your mother wants you to do or not do something that your mother thinks you shouldn't be doing. While when you're young, "Mother knows best" usually means you just lost a fight, this phrase can bring immense comfort and relief to those same kids when they begin the journey into young adulthood. Many of my friends also in their early 20s use their parents as a lifeline for what to do for a job interview, when you go to the doctor by yourself, how to not turn all of your clothes pink in the washer, easy recipes to make, and some even see their parents as a 24-hour-ATM. BUT, if you're reading this, I'm sure you know that we are not all blessed with loving, supportive parents that show you how to adult. That's why I've put together some tips and resources that I've found helpful for learning how to navigate young adulthood with no parental guidance. I hope that this helps someone through this very difficult transition, and even though it isn't the traditional way to grow up, you're not alone, and you can still accomplish all of your goals while creating a life that you enjoy living.

3 Podcasts That Will Inspire Your Quest for Personal Growth
The podcast is a relatively new phenomenon that allows us to digest information while on the move. Whether related to music, sports, lifestyle, and the like, we just plug-in, switch on and get going. However, the podcast space has become somewhat saturated in recent years, and finding audio gold is akin to discovering a needle in the proverbial haystack. However when you do, there are some inspirational and educational podcasts cultivated by individuals encouraging you to step out of comfort, push the boundaries and empower your inner selves. Want to know three podcasts that fit this mould? Of course you do.
