                            Photo by  Efrem Efre     Why Your Nose Might Be Lying to You Have you ever confidently walked into a room and said, “It smells like grandma’s cooking in here!”—only to realize there is no food nearby, no grandma, and you’re actually in a post office? That, my friend, is your senses which sometimes plays tricks on you. They’re cute, yes. Useful? Often. But trustworthy? Not always. Let’s talk about the eternal, philosophical, brain-tingling debate: Reason vs. the Senses. Or, more simply, thinking vs. feeling (and seeing, and smelling, and hearing, and tasting—if you’re really into tasty snacks). This topic has roots older than your grandma’s heartfelt recipes. It’s been a point of contention for thousands of years, stretching back to ancient philosophers who wore cool togas, asked inconvenient questions, and wouldn’t stop talking about The Truth . Your Senses: The Gossip Q...

Paolo Coelho The One Thing Holding Your Dream Hostage (I will give you a Hint: It’s Not Your Alarm Clock) Picture this scenario: You’ve got a dream. Maybe it’s writing a novel, launching a food truck empire, or finally taking that momentous leap into a new career. You can almost feel it. But then—all of the sudden—you’re hit with a case of the “what-ifs.” What if I’m not good enough? What if I fail miserably? What if my food truck catches fire for a number of crazy reasons? And suddenly, that dream gets placed into the far corners of your mind, right next to your forgotten New Year’s resolutions and that guitar you swore you'd learn to play. Paulo Coelho, in his bestselling novel *The Alchemist*, drops a truth bomb that’s simple, bu...

Sorry to be the bearer of painfully obvious news, but someone had to say it. This idea, wrapped up in the delightfully catchy phrase “you’ve got to be in it to win it,” isn’t just for gamblers and late-night infomercial sweepstakes—it’s a life philosophy. One with glitter, balloons, and just a hint of caffeine-induced confidence.☕ Check out this week's Podcast 👇  Picture this: you’re standing on the sidelines of a dance floor, music pumping, lights flashi...

Life is a crazy journey. On most days you are sipping your coffee and feeling amazing and then other days you accidentally hit "Reply All" on an email intended for your work bestie, which causes us to descend into chaos. Like Dante's journey into hell, we have all experienced moments when life appears to pull us down into our own personal Inferno. The good news is that falling doesn't mean the end. It's true that sometimes you have to reach your lowest point—or at least scratch it a little—in order to come out stronger, smarter, and possibly even funnier. The core of personal development is this journey—going through adversity and coming out of it changed. Let us examine how Dante's Inferno is basically a disguised self-help book. Welcome to Your Personal Inferno (It's Not Forever, I Promise!) Dante’s Inferno 🔥begins with the poet waking up in a dark, scary forest. He’s lost. Confused. Not sure how he ended up there. Sound familiar to life? We all ...

Never ask yourself if it’s realistic or not.”  Deepak Chopra   Follow Your Passion, Even If It’s Wearing a Cape and Riding a Unicorn You know that little voice in your head that whispers, “Hey, wouldn’t it be awesome to quit your job and open a bakery that only sells Star Wars-themed cupcakes?” Yeah, that one. Most of us laugh it off, sip our coffee, and go back to our Excel spreadsheets. But Deepak Chopra—author, spiritual guru, and all-around “follow-your-heart” advocate—would tell you to throw that spreadsheet into the trash and chase that cupcake dream like your life depends on it. He once said, “Always go with your passions. Never ask yourself if it’s realistic or not.” And honestly, there’s something wildly refreshing about that adv...

Apollo Robbins Stress: Is It All in Your Head? (Well… Kind Of!) Have you ever found yourself spiraling into stress over something that, when you really thought about it, wasn’t that big of a deal? Maybe you panicked over a delayed email response, convinced you’d ruined a friendship because of a typo in your text ("F** you" instead of "Thank you"—we’ve all been there). The truth is, stress isn’t always about what’s happening to us but rather how we perceive it. Check out this week's Podcast 👇  This brings us to a brilliant quote by Apollo Robbins: “Attention is what steers your perceptions; it’s what controls your reality. It’s the gateway to the mind.” In other words, where you focus your attention determines how you experience the world. And sometime...
