Fake it until you make it – or better – fake it until you BECOME it! Everybody that knows me well knows i’m a huge fan of TEDTalks and lifehacks.

We’ve all heard it before or some derivative of this. Including the old childhood saying, “sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me:” “who cares what they say”, “don’t listen to them” We know we should listen to the advice and not care what ‘that’ person is saying, but it’s hard sometimes!

The more I pried into this action, the more I found that a lot of other people do the same thing. This is really just a way of life, such as, ‘keeping up with the Joneses’ or ‘the grass is always greener.’ You also may [...]

‘You have the whole world in front of you!’ Most of us have heard this (or a derivative of it) at some point in our lives. And for the most part it’s generally true. But you must be careful to not allow it to become an excuse for putting things off and “starting monday”. ‘Make the most of each day and live everyday like is your last!’ Another common phrase many [...]
