This morning, I woke up late again. I rushed through everything, dropped my kids at school just in time, and now it’s 8:30 AM. I’m supposed to be at college soon, but with 20 minutes of travel ahead and heavy traffic, I’m already stressing about being late—again. I ask my driver to speed up. I […]
Life brings us a mix of experiences—some fill us with joy, while others leave us in deep pain. Our mind has a mysterious way of holding on to the past. Often, even after a painful event has passed, we keep replaying it over and over in our minds, allowing the pain to linger and grow. […]
We all keep tossing things into the dustbin every day. But what happens if we never empty it? It starts to stink, and soon you can’t even stand to be near it. You never meant for it to smell bad, yet that’s the outcome when it’s left unattended. Our hard feelings toward others work the […]

It’s natural to want to improve our lives, so we often absorb these suggestions, hoping they’ll help us move in the right direction. But here’s something […]

We all desire success, in health, relationships, career, and finances. But if I asked you, “Is everything working in your life?”, your honest answer might be no. You want things to work.
