By nature, humans are selfish creatures whether we know it or not or whether we express it or not and no that’s not a bad thing at all. I’m not talking about the greedy, uncaring, rude type of selfish that comes from acting out of fear-driven emotions. I’m talking about the type of selfishness that is required for you to take care of yourself first and foremost; knowing full well that if you do not, you are not very much use to anyone else because we really cannot serve from an empty cup. The thing with this is, that even though I truly feel we are naturally and innately drawn to do this, we are otherwise taught that selfishness itself just falls into one category of “wrong” or “don’t do it”. When, just like everything, your intention behind it is key.
Where you decide to expend your efforts will decide where you end up in life. The ideal is to find a way to stay true to your own goals that you’ve laid out for yourself. If you don’t have any goals yet, then finally take the time to decide what you want out of life.
“When it comes to where I want to exude my efforts and energy in life, it’s on something that I want to make sure is true to my own mission and my own goals. So working for myself is something I take very seriously and everybody I work with are people who in some capacity share a similar vision.” Casey Neistat
What does it take to make this day yours? You have to approach each day as if you are blessed and capable of accomplishing your goals. With determination, you can truly determine the course of your life.

I see patience as a little breather in between manifestations.
The thing about being an entrepreneur is that you have to love what you’re doing and have a consistent drive to continue producing. The success comes on the other side of staying motivated and finding a way to make your ideas work.
“The thing about being an entrepreneur is that it’s all to you. A lot of people like to make excuses, I don’t have connections, I don’t have money, I don’t have this, but if you find something that you like to do or love to do, be great at it and see if you can turn it into a business.” Cuban
This life we live will be filled with different issues and problems we have to face. The best way to go about them is to engage them head on. Know that if a problem comes your way, that you have the wisdom, tools and resources to handle it.
“Turn towards the problems that you see and engage with them. Walk right up to them, look them in the eye, then look yourself in the eye and decide what you’re going to do about them.” Matt Damon
When you believe in yourself, there is little to stop you in whatever you want to accomplish. Self-belief gives you the power to push forward and to defy the odds. You will be able to handle any roadblocks that come your way. You will also brush off the naysayers. You experience peace of mind and joy in your achievements when you build unshakable self-belief.
Entering Sacred Space Something unique happens when we come to the yoga studio or sit on our meditation cushions. We close the door behind us, shutting the noisy world outside. We remove the dirt and insulation of our well-worn shoes, forgetting for a moment the path we have trodden to arrive. We take off our […]
What separates a champion from someone who’s mediocre? Many times it’s the discipline to go through mundane daily tasks to get to an ultimate goal. Stay consistent in your actions and you will eventually see results.
“I feel I was born to fight because I have no other interest in anything else. Everybody’s a fighter in their own right. You’re a fighter, I’m a fighter. But everybody don’t get up every morning and run.” Mike Tyson
There’s something that beats deep in the heart of most people. Once they can tap into that they will find their life’s work and nothing will ever be the same again.
“But in the end, the most important thing is what’s the purpose of your life? Why are you here? Everything on earth has a purpose and you do too. That purpose provides an inner drive that once you tap into it can give your life immense fulfillment” Tony Robbins
I recently realized, by seeing how someone else was depending so much on me for fulfillment, how much I was doing the same to someone else. And it’s amazing how life and the Universe work in such a way where the student is always the teacher is always the student and one is best to always remain humble and know that learning never stops. If you do stop learning, then you’ve technically stopped living for life, where our souls incarnate into the manifestation of matter reality to experience creation in the physical realm. Which brings us back to remembering who we really are.
As it goes, the Universe is set up in such a way that when we need to keep our hearts open the most, it is during the most absolute difficult times to do so. Those times we may be struggling to find our self-worth or confidence because while we know how good appreciation and respect feel, we still rely on getting it from others to make us feel secure in ourselves.
The path to success involves creating a clear vision for your life. Without that vision and a specific goal you’re going to falter along the way. Success in the majority of cases doesn’t occur by accident.
“The most important thing is that you have a vision, that you have a goal, because without that vision and without that goal again you’re drifting around and you’re never gonna end up anywhere.” Arnold Schwarzenegger
We are here to serve, and service alone will bring you true peace and joy. Serve in joy and expect nothing in return and watch as a domino effect of universal support lights up the planet.
