Warming up
Anytime you do something for the first time, it won’t be perfect. In basketball, it’s called first-time jitters. Some basketball players airball their first shot and miss really badly when coming off the bench. Then those same basketball players then manage to score the next 2, 3, 4 or more shots in a row. Give Continue reading

Stress
Stressing about something has always seemed stupid to me… Because immediately after you go through that stressful thing or finish that stressful project, it all goes away. Almost as if there was no trace of it ever happening. Everything leading up to the moment is completely erased because what matters is the end result. Stressing Continue reading

Invest in Yourself
I talked about investing yesterday. Investing in mutual funds, index funds, ETFs, and automated investment portfolios are all relatively safe and good reliable investments. If you had $1000 and no idea how to invest, most people will guide you to one of the things listed above. But what is truly the best investment you can Continue reading

INVEST!!! (Roth IRA)
I just recently opened up a WealthSimple investment account and deposited some money in a personal and Roth IRA portfolio. So far, I’ve made $3.70. I get this indescribable rush every time I see my account go up. If I keep depositing money on a monthly basis, based on the save 10% of what you Continue reading

Meeting Stuart Weitzman
I shook Stuart Weitzman’s hand today. When Mr Weitzman arrived at the lecture room, he immediately took the time to go down the line and personally shake everyone’s hand, while also offering a kind and genuine smile. He approached people with nonchalance, and his 76-year-old frame made him seem exceedingly unintimidating. As I watched him Continue reading

Genius Room
Today I went to a birthday party ( it was the birthday of the kid I taught magic to last week ) After the food was served and the cake was cut and “happy birthdays” were sung, all the kids were dispersed to freely play among themselves throughout the house. Then, the adults (and myself) were Continue reading

Being Afraid to Ask
Sometimes we are too afraid to ask for things. Can you help me with this? I don’t understand this concept. Can you explain it again? Is it okay if we do it this way? Don’t be afraid to ask for something. Unless it is completely illogical, most requests are generally received well from your peers. Continue reading

The ARM of a Business
Today in my Business Dynamics class, Abby Hiza, alumni of Villanova and current HR representative from GSK, came to speak to us about human resources. Now, I’ve always known that one of the most important departments of large–and sometimes smaller sized–companies is the human resources branch. But Abby was able to share some more insight. Continue reading

Surprise Juice
There was a surprise performance by the band The Juice today in The Cyber Lounge. At first, I didn’t expect much. I actually expected them to be an amateur band performing simply for the experience. They were awesome. I think it’s interesting when people surprise you like that. Especially when you don’t expect them to Continue reading

Making Money with Magic
Unfortunately, I can’t actually produce money with my magical capabilities. If I could, I probably wouldn’t be in school right now and would probably be travelling the world doing fun and great things. But on Sunday, I was paid for my magic. To teach it, specifically. On Saturday, October 28th, I met a couple at Continue reading
