“If you really want to do something, you’ll find a way. If not, you’ll find an excuse.” – Jim Rohn. Do you have difficulty in achieving your goals? Do you find that you start your goals, but rarely see them through to the end? If so, it’s likely you’ve been making excuses.

5 Things I Do To Get Myself Out Of A Slump

My Morning Routine & What I Do To Win The Day. “Either you run the day or the day runs you”- Jim Rohn. My morning routine has been one of the most life-changing habits I’ve developed.

We spend a significant portion of our time designing. We design our homes, we design our work schedules, and we even design our feeds for the gram. But how much time do we really invest when it comes to designing our own lives? Up until recently, I spent much of my time doing, and not really questioning.
