I feel like I may have said this before. I feel like I have written a 1,001 variations on this theme. I feel like I should really adhere to this sound advice. Look, try the best that you can to surround yourself with people who push you to […]
I was listening to my iPod, while walking in this extreme heat. I have this silly goal of 10,000 steps each day. Even in this heat. Sigh. I’m too committed. Anyway, there I am walking, listening to music when Bananarama’s song Cruel Summer comes on. I stopped mid-step […]
The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity. The fears are paper tigers. You can do anything you decide to do. You can act to change and control your life; and the procedure, the process is its own reward – Amelia Earhart […]
