Sometimes this is due to our own choices, but there are times when life throws us curve balls thatContinue reading “Hard Things”
Are You Still Growing?
There is a quote that says, “The only person you need to be better than is the person you were yesterday.” This quote is a good reminder of not falling into the trap of comparing ourselves to others. However, it is also a good reminder that we should always be in a state of growthContinue reading “Are You Still Growing?”
The Choice Is Ours
Habits create ruts. The ruts we make in our life can help us to succeed or struggle. It is our choice as to which ruts we live in.
