Thank You to a Legend: Steve Jobs

Steve Jobs RIP

Tonight after an evening out I came home to check some emails and noticed on my Twitter feed a number of tweets about Steve Jobs. As we all know now, Steve Jobs has passed away leaving many of us saddened. I simply wanted to share my condolence with his family, friends and those whom knew and worked for the company I admire the most. For me, Steve Jobs and Apple have been an inspiration.  It was a legend that I've been able to watch through the growth of my early adult years. A company's philosophy to "Think Different," which I have lived with every day since I heard those words. Barack … [Read more...]

Don’t Be Afraid of Yourselves

August 30, 2011 By | Leave a Comment

If you have never contemplated this thought before, this might be a big one for you, so please read more than once.

Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure..." read the entire quote here. The reality is that we are afraid of what we can become if only leave behind many things we know that are comfortable and embrace new opportunities.

It's been a while, I know you must be upset with me if you enjoyed reading my blog posts on a constant basis.  I'm now a couple of weeks into living in my place and I've learned something I want to share.  Something that hopefully will help me get back to writing my blog posts. All of this year I have tried to lose weight and get into good shape.  Before I moved to Toronto, while I was living in my mother's house I was having a hard time controlling my diet.  This was because I didn't have control of the groceries and even my schedule.  I couldn't create a routine and limit myself to … [Read more...]

Be Patient

July 18, 2011 By | Leave a Comment

Stop expecting everything to come to you all at once. If it did, you would be overloaded and complaining about how you can't handle it. Now that I've said that, you're probably remembering a time when that happened to you. We all want everything to come to as at once. We want the money, power and respect to be in our laps tomorrow. If it was, it would be worthless and you would waste it as quickly as possible. Life is frankly sweeter when you have the patience for things to take their own time. I'm not saying be slow or lazy, but letting things take their natural course is important. People … [Read more...]
