Be Vacation You

Be Vacation You

Everyone on vacation is far more open to meeting new people, taking on new experiences and opportunities. Why not be like this in everyday life as well. There are amazing people and experiences around you in your normal life that we all let slip away because of our approach to them. Every exchange is an opportunity and your approach to it has a strong connection to the eventual outcome. Be vacation you.

The Opportunity of Adversity

The Opportunity of Adversity

Every piece of adversity or failure provides you with an opportunity. It is a choice to have this mindset and seek positive opportunities resulting from negative situations. Having this perspective can dramatically improve your life and reduce time spent suffering. I challenge you to seek out an opportunity that presents itself because of a negative. Continue to consciously do this until it becomes a habit. I am confident you will see the impact.

Bad Days Don't Exist.

Bad Days Don't Exist.

Bad days are something you create. We allow insignificant negative things and energy spill over to the rest of our day by labelling it a "bad day". This is simply a waste of one of our most valuable resources, time. Don't allow anything negative to have more power than it needs to. You dictate how you respond to things, so don't let anything be all consuming. No bad days. It's your decision, so stop making excuses and radiate positivity.

Keep Talking

Keep Talking

#BellLetsTalk is an amazing initiative started to begin the conversation on the importance of mental health. While its great that the conversation has begun, it is on all of us to continue the conversation and create a cultural shift away from the stigmatization of mental health issues. Sunny & I discuss why this is so important and share some of our personal struggles with mental health. We encourage all to continue the movement and to keep talking! Much love

Your Environment Matters.

Your Environment Matters.

It often goes unnoticed the impact our environment has on us. From your mood to your level of performance, all facets of your life are impacted by who and what you are around. If you are in a negative environment it is on you to be proactive and seek out ways to alter that environment or create a new one. You control where you are, make sure its the right place.
