That's a nice table! In this episode, we discuss how to get over procrastination ruts and how to improve your overall productivity.

Imagine this: you run into your old middle school teacher at the store. How do you feel? What emotions do you associate with this person? What core memories do you share with them? It all depends on if you label them as "good" or "bad". This was a "bad" teacher in my life. In this episode, we talk about why the universe allowed this cameo to happen in a different chapter of life. Will we let the past define us or refine us?

Ever hear the words "arrogant", "conceited", or "narcissistic"? Hopefully, none of those words were directed at you. We all want to stand out in our own way, but we all know individuals who believe in themselves a little ~too~ much. Being "humble" is the general solution to curing arrogance, but is it really that easy to cure? Is having pride in oneself really a bad thing? Who the heck is "ego"? Isn't that the critic in Ratatouille??

The Rascal Flatts were right when they said "life is a highway". But the reality is that life is also a warzone. Well, not literally.  More emotionally. Every day, we experience something that tests our willingness to keep going and be our best selves. Hard times will come into your life, no matter what you do. A small interaction may ruin your day. But when these small battles do occur (because they will): are they really worth your energy to fight?

This episode is a little more nuanced than usual: are you separating your own wants and desires from those others want and desire for you? In other words, are you allowing the outside world to steer your life or are you actually in control? It's okay if you don't! That's part of the world we live in now. But we can always decide to take control now and steer our own ship.

"Memento mori" is a term that comes up a lot in Stoicism and Philosophy, but what does it mean? This episode wasn't meant to be dark but rather shed some light on how temporary life can be and a reminder to appreciate the time that you have. Hope you enjoy it!
