The value of something is the measure of worth it has been given. And, that worth is mostly subjective. It's interesting to note that once the thing is gone or lost, its perceived value skyrockets. We never really seem to get how important it is to appreciate the things we have right now. Because we … Continue reading Value

It's an important practice to provide value to others. In order to do that you need to know your own value. Learn your value. And then share that value generously with others.

Honesty is so important, but not all honesty is needed. If it's cruel and used as a blunt-force weapon, then what good is it? What's needed much more than brutal honesty is pure sincerity. Sincerity is simply meaning what you say and saying what you mean. The thing about sincerity is that you don't need … Continue reading Sincerity

Invest
Are you spending your time and energy needlessly, or are you investing them? When you invest in something, you do so in exchange for value and a profit. Spending simply expends your assets.

Your Story
Your story is important. Your story is valid, and valuable. Your story matters. But the person who is most affected by your story, is yourself.

Time
Of all the things that we place value on, time is the only thing that cannot be replaced. Houses can be replaced. Cars can be restored. Even if you lost all of your money, you could get it all back, and more. But once time is spent, it's gone forever. That's worth remembering, when you … Continue reading Time

Isn't it amazing that this is all taken care of for us seamlessly, so we can … Continue reading Amazing
Show, don’t tell
Actions speak louder than words. It's a true statement, but looks funny written out. After all, words are what we use to communicate. But they often fall short in telling an effective story. Isn't it a picture that's worth a thousand words? That can mean that a picture is an extremely valuable source of information, … Continue reading Show, don’t tell
