past time
what you do with your past time will determine your lifestyle. I like to watch Netflix. But I also try to do things that I enjoy and also will help me grow as a person. I write. I read. I exercise. I meditate If you can add productive habits to your life and slot them Continue reading

Advice for college students
Don’t be in a rush My first advice is this: if you are in college, you are probably anywhere from the age of 18–22. Now imagine this. If you are 20, you could do NOTHING right, and fail at everything you try for the next 10 YEARS. And you’d still be young So don’t be in a Continue reading

Self-judgment
I truly believe that judgment of others is oftentimes just a self-projected judgment. That is, when you judge others, you actually learn more about your internal self rather than the person you are attempting to judge.

Consciousness
being conscious about one’s self is one of the central themes of meditation and mindfulness, and equally a daunting and difficult task We go into glimpses of this consciousness, but a sustained awareness of one’s self is nearly impossible to achieve unless you are the Buddha But to be aware of one’s own existence, that Continue reading

self-sabotage
I was unwilling to believe this at first but I honestly think one of the biggest life hurdles/obstacles is learning how to avoid self-sabotage. We often hold ourselves back from the things we truly want in life Maybe out of fear that achieving our dream will leave us listless. Maybe we don’t believe we deserve Continue reading

holding myself back
One of life’s biggest questions is relationships Choosing the right ones And cutting off the ties you don’t need anymore like split ends But relationships are difficult because it has to be a two-way street What you want might not align with what the other person wants Both people need to put on the effort Continue reading
