2019-12-0600 minMove Groove GrowAllow Your Self To SuckEVERYONE SUCKS AT THE BEGINNING.
If you want to be great at whatever is you want to pursue you've got to tough it out during the awkward phase of sucking.
Some might have more talent than others, but that's no reason to not try.
Because I promise you the work you put in compounds and builds up to something.
2019-11-2900 minMove Groove Growimportance of empathy in lifeEMPATHY is NOT SYMPATHY.
Sympathy = "Aw poor you."
Empathy = "Hey man, I get what you're going through. It sucks."
If you want to feel more connected to other people in your life, empathy is key.
But it's not gonna be easy. You've got to get over your own ego and judgement to truly put yourself in someone else's shoes. It's listening to understand, not listening to reply.

They’re already going to be passing opinions about you anyways.
People who are doing real things are too busy trying to build something for themselves don’t have time to put others down.

2019-04-2200 minMove Groove Growthe same lesson WILL KEEP COMING BACK until you learn itEver wondered why certain situations trigger you?
I believe that whatever triggers you, is where the lesson is.
It's the "end of your comfort zone" all those inspirational quotes on Instagram talk about.
And here's the truth, if you don't figure out how to process what triggers you, it will keep coming back in one way or another. Why? Because it's a part of you, and your life doesn't change until you change.

It's important that you focus on this ONE THING when times are both good and bad.

It's even harder for many to be patient with themselves. You are at the center of how your life plays out... if you aren't loving and patient with yourself, things will be MUCH harder for you.
Why be your own worst enemy when you can be your own best friend?

2018-09-1503 minMove Groove GrowWhat people overlook when it comes to productivityA lot of us relate productivity with the amount of things we get done and the amount of hours we put in.
But one of the biggest things people overlook is that productivity is also a management of energy.
If you don’t have the energy, your 10 hours of work will be crap compared to someone who put’s 3 hours of work in but has had a quality nights sleep.
Imagine being able to be productive for about the MAJORITY of your day.
