Social Media Etiquette 101

Everyday something taboo or flat-out inappropriate is posted online. Many many times a day. It’s unfortunate, because a lot of people use the internet, and especially social media (ie Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc) for FUN. These platforms are great for staying in touch with friends, sharing videos and songs, posting entertaining photos, or building your […]Read Post ›

Quote of the Day: 9/29/11

“Just as a candle cannot burn without fire, men cannot live without a spiritual life.” -Buddha Believe in SOMETHING. It doesn’t matter what it is: God, Buddha, Allah, a rock, the Big Bang, or just being a good person. When you have belief or what some people call ‘faith,’ then it gives your life purpose.

Quote of the Day: 9/27/11

“An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.” -Buddha Sincerity is crucial to a long-lasting friendship.

“Life can only take place in the present moment. If we lose the present moment, we lose life.” -Buddha Don’t get lost in the past. What’s done is done, and we can only apply what we have learned to how we live each day. Don’t focus too much on the future; you’ll forget to enjoy […]Read Post ›

The Four Referability Habits

Yes I know referability […]Read Post ›

Labor Day…?

If you’re like me, then you have no idea why we celebrate Labor Day in the United States. That makes me feel ignorant when I first think about it. But consider it, if you asked everyone in the U.S. why we celebrate all the holidays, would any single person be able to answer it? Exactly. […]Read Post ›

Be a Band Geek

I was watching American Pie 2 the other day, and all of a sudden I felt sick to my stomach. The scene came on where the character Jim, who is pretty nerdy and extremely awkward, has a chance to hook up with the amazing hottie Nadia. As they are getting close to the moment of […]Read Post ›

How to Say Goodbye

When a loved one leaves Earth, they leave ripples. Like a stone thrown in the water, wave after wave reverberate outwards, affecting everything they touch. Sometimes these ripples impact people positively, but more often than naught, they cause devastation. Life is fragile, and very short. Most people don’t realize this or experience that fact until […]Read Post ›

Motivate Thyself

What drives you? Such a commonly asked question, yet it is so hard to answer. Trust me, every company is going to want to know: “What motivates you?” Do you know why? Because they are looking for one, very specific, and very straightforward answer: “I am self-motivated.” I wanted to explore what it means to be […]Read Post ›
