💡Personal Development & Finance

Although I’m not a hiring manager, CEO or recruiter, I could care less about your IQ, test scores, GPA or work experience if we were friends. Companies hire people because they feel like a good fit for the firm and believe they can provide some value they can capitalize on and make millions from. They

My ultimate motto in life is to “never fail due to a lack of effort because effort requires no skill.” Your ultimate goal is to be proud of yourself and where you’ve landed. Surely we still have some work to do and no one usually says they are complete but being grateful is the easiest

With every career comes a new set of skills you must brush up on but what if there were 5 universal skills that every job market required? Wouldn’t that be so much easier? Well you’re in luck. You’ve stumbled upon this article to become a better worker in this digital age. I applaud you but

When you ask people for advice, most of the time it’s corny, not helpful and just an ego booster. What’s the point of offering compliments if I’m looking to grow? I want to hear what I don’t want to hear to actually move the needle. This is called constructive criticism but there are only so

No wonder 2020 was the year of the rat. On December 31st at 11:59pm the whole world felt a bit lighter even though 2021 rolled in the same challenges but possibly more hope. If we survived one of the darkest days in American history last year, we can get through anything. Although 2020 was known

We’re all online more than we should be. Our eyes weren’t designed to look at digital screens for 8 hours a day yet we still do it anyway because the world has to evolve and keep moving forward right? But what if it’s actually moving backward and we’re harming our growth? Sure, the world is

I’m not a theoretical or philosophical person. I write about finance, that’s the simplest industry you can get in terms of writing. Discussing metrics, growth and charts is tougher than spitting out Shakespeare and history on paper. If you can can write anything through the KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) method, then you’re golden. No

Squeezing every bit out of life can seem overwhelming. Especially stuck at home. We aren’t given a game plan when we get out of the womb. We just learn what our parents do and follow them for a good 18 years. 95% of our behavior, speech, way of walking, physique is from our parents and

We all want to feel special. The moment we were born, our parents pampered us with all we wanted and gave us their full divided attention in order to raise us as the brightest most wonderful people in the world. When a child is born, you give it all you got not just because it

I love studies. No, not studying for a test. I’m horrible at those. I mean surveys, asking people for their unique opinions and gathering all the results! They always fascinate me. So as an abnormal curious college student bored on Zoom University for the 3rd semester in a row, I did just that. I went

Don’t worry I’m not a zombie nor a crazy health freak. At least, I’m not anymore. I used to be a health nut restricting my calorie intake and exercising for at least 3 hours a day until I realized how unhealthy my mind became so I started to eat more bread and didn’t force myself

What a week. From volatility in the markets to the crazy weather across the country, we all deserve to take a deep breather this weekend to end off January. Let’s all take a deep breathe together. I’m waiting…. Inhale….exhale….inhale…and exhale. Did that make you feel a little lighter? I hope it did because we are

As a typical American teen, I’m guilty of this. I’ve tried as many fancy, trendy diet trends of tomorrow that I could get my sticky fingers on and only felt worse about myself after all of them. Not because I was looking to become healthier per se, but instead just look a bit, well, better

Let’s play a little guessing game. Who says learning lessons can’t be fun? Answer: School. Luckily, this isn’t directed by NY State Common Core Education so we are free. Hint #1: We (hopefully) do this at least 5–7 times a week Hint #2: There is no limit unless you want to feel like a broken

There is no secret that the rich think differently than everyone else but when you analyze what is going on in those noggins, most of the time they are just concepts and practices the rest of us already know, just deliberately ignore. 97% of the Fortune 500 people in the world have earned their wealth

As we get older, the less emphasis we take to prioritize our health and instead put others’ lives before our own. This is certainly a generous and expected act when you have kids or a 12-hour job to provide as the breadwinner for your family but have you ever taken some time for yourself to

We’ve endured a lot during this pandemic but it’s all about how we frame and learn from it, not take the easy way out to complain. You could say that you were stuck at home with nothing to do scrambling to find some ways to make money or curious and took advantage of this time

No time to waste! We’re getting straight into it for you to live a more fulfilling and exciting life no matter your situation. Tip #1: Don’t buy yourself more stuff Tip #2: Don’t read anything again without actually applying and testing it in your life. These two things have wasted countless years, money, relationships, happiness off of

Despite being the wealthiest country in the world, Americans are one of the unhealthiest humans on Earth and this is due to the careless misconceptions that we carry about our feelings that are scrapping years off of our lives that once in for all we need to confess. The last thing you want to do

Networking and connecting are tasks none of us truly want to engage in all the time but feel the need to perform it anyway in order to move the needle in our lives. When was the last time you were excited to write an email or send out a Christmas card? Maybe never but the

We are all trying to find lofty ways to maximize our growth and optimize solutions to fuel greater prosperity in our work. But what does that actually mean if we cannot work productively and get anything done in the first place? As a student, I’m always searching, reading, and researching the best tips to get

I’ve composed my thoughts in a journal that I’ve had this past year starting in May because I didn’t know what Medium was pre-COVID nor did I have time or energy to do this. I can say I’ve learned more these past few months than throughout my life. Maybe that’s because I’m getting older or

Besides the trendy overpriced apps such as Calm, Headspace, Talkspace, and the like, is there a more cost-efficient way we can cure our insanity, binging snack drawer addiction, and find solutions to get more work done at the same time? Well, if there was a cure to those and cancer and depression and burnout and

Yes, even on weekends and on Christmas. But don’t worry, you don’t have to go there. I know you can call me a crazy teen. Aren’t teens always crazy though? What were you like as a 19-year-old? Since I started working out at age 13 because I was self-conscious about my body and realized that

We are living in the moment and so we would consider the present the only thing we can control. We cannot influence the past and only control the future through the present. Without getting philosophical, isn’t life about planning for the future? Every day we usually do things to see either monetary, physical or pleasurely

These days it feels like every day is a Monday. This is the last thing we want to hear and we’ve never wanted to venture out and say bon voyage to our siblings or divorce our family this bad in our lives. Quality time is a blessing but as with many families, it can go
