Put Yourself First

The One Where I’m Walking the Walk

Okay, really it's more like crawling...but still, we all had to crawl before we walked. The lastĀ Letters I posted was titled "The One Where I'm a Fraud," and admittedly it was less than my usual motivating content. I just felt so fake, like I wasn't doing anything for my goals, which is honestly a feeling … Continue reading The One Where I’m Walking the Walk

Big Dreams, Little Goals

Mondays aren't always our best, most productive days, are they? We wake up sad that the weekend has ended and grudgingly head back to school or work.

The One Where I’m a Fraud

I'm a writer...am I? I write essays for school. I write for this blog. It's not very good. I want to write books, but I don't actively write my book often enough to say I write books. So am I a writer? But if I say I just want to be a writer, will I … Continue reading The One Where I’m a Fraud

200 Days of Self Love

I've spent a fair few blog posts documenting my troubles with self love, which led to the decision last Valentine's Day to try an exercise calledĀ 365 Days of Self Love. It mostly is what it sounds like, unless you have a very dirty mind about everything: every night I write down in my journal one … Continue reading 200 Days of Self Love

Finding Motivation from the VMAs

A lot of the older generations claim that we millennials don't yet understand how the world works, and I'm not going to pretend as if we have it all figured out, but they don't understand how our world works, either. Last night were the MTV VMAs. Yeah, it's a bit of a shitshow in the … Continue reading Finding Motivation from the VMAs

Why am I doing this, you wonder? Well, quite simply, I like talking about things that I … Continue reading Summer Favorites 2015

Back-to-school is upon us all, and whether you go to school or just get bombarded by all of the ads and posts about it, you must be feeling some sort of that sentiment that a new year is starting...but wait, isn't it August? Every year we seem to start two new years: a calendar year … Continue reading Starting at the Middle
