This inspiring scene from the film ‘Facing the Giants’ personifies what it means to persevere, to trust and to have faith in our abilities.

See Chapter 1.0 – Momentum At any given moment, you have the ability to change your life.

Jim Carrey shared these remarkable words in a valedictorian speech he shared at Maharishi University of Management and they couldn’t be closer to the truth.

If you have ever felt uninspired, you’re probably just human (laughs). Feeling uninspired is often hard to explain, but you probably know exactly how it feels. It feels as if you have to keep moving forward with life and what it asks of you, but you have no apparent motive to do so. When we…
The Challenge of Moving Forward When the pain of your past won’t let you go, how do you manage? Do you just stand by and let the time pass by? – you’re told that time fixes everything, right? Well that’s part of the truth – but it leaves out the most important part – acceptance….
We’ve all had habits, good ones and bad ones. We know which habits are supportive of our growth and those that are not. There’s some habits that constantly bug us. We know they’re poor choices but we still do them because we’re in a pattern that keeps drawing us back in – tempting us. We’ve…
Ever feel a bit trapped or asphyxiated because you can’t seem to control a lot of the outcomes of life? Yep, me too. I feel so controlled by life sometimes – by the expectations of my friends and family, the judgements of acquaintances and by my own inner yearning for approval, and this is all…
How will you serve the world? What will your talents provide? These are questions we should ask ourselves when we are setting our goals.

It’s funny how momentum works. The direction you’re moving in currently is the direction with least resistance. There’s pros and cons to the concept of momentum. If things are going really really great, it’s a lot easier to keep things going that way (provided you don’t become complacent). However, when things are not going so…
You are not the mistakes of your past – you are the lessons and capabilities you have gained from them. Be at peace with yourself – intimately, wholesomely and lovingly. Don’t let the mistakes of your past dictate who you are now or in the future because it has no bearing. Break free from it’s…
Never give up on pursuing what your heart desires. Be brave in the face of adversity and stop at nothing to grow towards a better version of yourself. There’s never going to be a magical time when we get to sit back and everything will be easy and we won’t have to work or put…

There’s a chance you’re reading this because you want to be perfect, you want everything to go to plan and you want your life to just fall in place for you. If I’m honest, continuing to have these thoughts is actually what’s holding you back from exactly what you want. To be ‘perfectly you’ is…
It’s easy to get caught up in trying to please others and in trying to prove to the world that we are good enough. The truth is, we don’t have to and we should never have to. If people, situations or criteria ever make us feel this way we need to properly evaluate why this…
If you’re looking for growth and for meaning of any kind you need to be honest with yourself. Honest to the point that you make proper sacrifices and openly reveal yourself to the world. If the world doesn’t know what you’re seeking – if you don’t ask for it, then how does it know what…
If only we could turn back time, would we change the things of our past or let them be as they are? Does time moving forward signify that we can’t go back to the better days that we believe are behind us? It’s nice sometimes to speculate about going back in time to improve things…
Sometimes we become anxious for no apparent reason, other times we know the exact cause, but nonetheless it can be difficult to manage in either case. Those rumblings in our stomach can feel all knotted up and out of control and we can even begin to question our own self worth. Sometimes we get anxious…
Mahatma Gandhi, a global peacemaker and Indian activist taught us many important lessons in his lifetime, but one of his most profound contributions was his empowerment of others.

Are you afraid that your life might not work out the way you want it to or the way you envisioned it? Do you ever feel like the position you are in right now could be so much better? Are you afraid that you might not measure up or that your life may not leave…
I forgot how much I loved my writing, it was my rock in times of worry and my celebratory release in victory. I’ve been away from my writing for a couple of months now because I faded away from what was important to me. I stopped placing priority on my writing and for that I…
We have control over our thoughts and it is our thoughts that create our reality. Therefore, we have control over our reality. What we believe into existence is who we become. So why do we back away from challenges that help us to grow when we know that it’s best for us? When we speak…
My deepest fear is not that I’m incapable – my deepest fear is that I may never reach the potential of my capabilities. I’m afraid that I may let time pass by and make no real progress because I’m too lazy or holding on to some egotistical view of the world. What I do know…
