Would you plant a seed if you knew it wouldn’t grow?
How many of you remember putting a red kidney bean in a jar and watching it grow? When we performed this experiment, we felt certain that we would see something after just a few days. We were instructed to place the jar, in a sunny spot, and observe the bean as it grew, noting what…

Follow the confidence you feel and connect to your destiny
There are certain things that we find we can grasp easily yet oftentimes, we may feel that these things come too easily to us, and we may choose to pursue something that offers a greater challenge.

how much truth can you accept about yourself?

Don’t ‘should’ on Yourself!
Do you remember the last time someone told you that you SHOULD do something? How did you feel? I’m sure you didn’t graciously say “why thank you for that tip” Why am I so certain of your response? Well should is a word that we attach to authority figures, be it parents, or folks paid…
