Typically speaking, I’m not one to laud the eccentricities of famous folk. I’m more apt to laud the opinions and perceptions of that of the common human.

For the past six months or so, I have started to notice a pattern. Anytime I post a slightly viral-ish post in a facebook group, I get between 10 and 30 requests to ‘have a conversation’, ‘pick my brain’, ‘ask me about my journey’, ‘get insights into how I did it’. This equates to as […]
Stop looking up to others to be your sole source of inspiration. Ask rather, how can I inspire myself? Stop looking down on those who struggle. Instead ask, how can I lift them up?
