Mood follows action is a saying that I most likely read somewhere on Instagram or in a personal development book and it has stuck with me. Take action and your mood will follow. It's a simple concept when you take time to think about it. If you have been following me for awhile, you know I am a big fan of the Compound Effect by Darren Hardy and the principles behind it. Actions do not need to be huge in order to make a great impact. I actually think that making them small mak

Note to self: I do not have to take this day all at once. I can take it one step at a time, one breath at a time and one moment at a time. I am only one person. Things will get done, when they done. I will trust the timing of my life. Have you ever felt like everything was piling up on you shoulders and slowly crushing you? Or maybe you get that feeling of sinking... like when you were a kid and would stand at the edge of the tide, allowing the waves to pull the sand from und

I have spent a lot of time calling myself a slacker and honestly, sometimes I truly feel like one. However, when I look back at how far I have come since the start of my journey, I know that is bullshit and I am just hard on myself. Despite not really working out for the past few months I have basically maintained my weight and that shows growth! Yes, I've lost some muscle and I'm carrying an extra 5 pounds, but in the grand scheme of things, that's a win! This shows me how f

For the longest time I have ebbed and flowed with what I blog about, what I post on social media and how I go about doing it all. I talk a lot about not letting social media influence the things you try in life and not to compare yourself to the things you see, but it's hard. The reason why I speak about this so much, is because I was guilty of doing it for so damn long.
