What would you do if you actually had an extra hour each day? An extra 7 hours each week? I know I have a tendency to say, man if only there were ore hours in the day. However, if we really had it, would we take advantage? And with what? I'd like to think I'd do ...
spring is here
Written by contributing blogger, Sonia Sahota. The scent of fresh cut grass, glistening from last nights rain showers, start of gardening season, flowers beginning to bloom, sun is shining and that sizzle from the backyard grille.. Spring is underway and we are all excited about it. My personal favorite has to be the first rainfall in ...
no alarm clock needed
Quit the snooze button my friends. I know - pot calling the kettle black. I am notorious for hitting snooze wayyyyy too many times. But when you have something to look forward to, or something that gets your heart pumping, getting out of bed, is a little easier. So, instead of hitting snooze, throw on ...
hit the reset button
Did you know the majority of folks, especially millennials do not take their full vacation time? It's not just for the sake of not having enough money for vacation, but more so because of falling behind at work, or looking poorly to their superiors. They want to be on top of their job, at all ...
Forgetting the ones that don’t deserve you
We approach so many folks in our lives. Some for a moment, some for a lifetime. But which ones truly deserve us? Over the last year I came across an individual who seemed pleasant at first. She was fun, adventurous, smart, and like me, loved food. But first appearances, can be deceiving. We have a ...

Too little, too late
There was a day, when a friend jeopardized our friendship by creating distance through unanswered calls, little to no texts, and not even the regular holiday or birthday messages. It's unfortunate when friendships fade, but what happens when that person tries to re-enter your life? Do you let them? In my opinion, it depends on the ...
What drives you?
Such a small question, with such a complicated and thought provoking response. What drives you? For some people it's their work. For others it's their family, money, and/or the idea of success. And others may want to make or leave an impact upon the world, i.e. leave it better than before they came into it. The ...
Finding the coolest show soundtrack
Recently I got into the new show Whiskey Cavalier, and some how hate it, while others may love it. I of course, love it as it has Scott Foley from Felicity and Scandal. He has only gotten better with age...no exaggeration here. Anyway, the opening credits have a song that just grabs your attention, so ...
Overcome the negative thoughts
It happens, we just can't help it - sometimes we wind up in this tornado of negative thoughts whether it's towards someone else, a situation, ourselves, or just overall. It's no bueno. So how do we break through that tornado? Push those negative thoughts aside? Or at least temper them so we aren't all consumed ...
