The show never stops. That was a lesson I learned when I was very young.

Your first experience on stage is one that’s hard to forget. The second I stepped on stage, I was overburdened by a variety of stimuli. The blinding glare of the stage lights overhead, murmur of the crowd, the deafening echo of your own footsteps: all these things clouded my mind, perception, and focus. The overstimulation caused my nerves to work on overdrive, my heart beating so fast I could swear it was about to pop. And yet, I couldn’t allow myself to get distracted. If…

And given the current state of our planet, we definitely need to do our part in saving it. Gardening impacts so many aspects of our lives such as the air we breathe, minimizing…

People who make content online for a living, mostly for Youtube and TikTok, are called creators or influencers. This can also include Instagram, where people can post pictures of their lifestyle in order to attract brands who offer them deals. On Youtube, they make videos talking about specific subjects like true crime, show how to do makeup for halloween, or make twenty second dance videos on TikTok.

Wanting to improve yourself in any area of life is already an important step in the right direction. You have to genuinely want change and after that, the other steps will not seem so daunting.

For example, if you want to start waking up early to give yourself more time to get ready for the day, try writing down how you’ll work up to this. For the first week, you may plan to pick out your outfit for the next day. …

Self-preservation has been a vital component of the human race from the very beginning. The need to feed, clothe, shelter, and protect ourselves is what got us to where we are today. Yet in this modern world, we often forget how prevalent that desire is even now. Although the majority of us don’t have to deal with the constant threat of being attacked by wild animals or rival tribes, this desire persists in different ways.

Social acceptance, personal satisfaction, the ultimate understanding of ourselves: all these things are a new form of self-preservation, focused on the mind rather than the…

Writing from experience is one of the best ways for an author to breathe life into their work. And yet, many people find the story taking a direction that they are unfamiliar with. Not all of us have fought in a long-standing war or trained our whole lives in martial arts. So the question is how do we fill in the gaps of our writing. One way we can do so is by living through it. Method acting is a technique actors use to better get into the mindset of their character. Examples of this method include living on the…

I have never personally interviewed for a job on my desired career path, but I have parents, cousins, aunts and uncles, and older friends who have told me how difficult it can be finding a job that fits into your career goals, interviewing well, and performing well once you get a job to one day rise in that specific industry. When searching for a job, there are many avenues you can take. There are many websites where employers post available jobs such as Indeed, Monster, Zip Recruiter, and Career Builder.

The human race is going to die. The earth as we know it has become so altered by our misuse of fossil fuels, natural resources, and our own waste that the likelihood of our survival on this planet is ever decreasing. Our lives, our livelihoods, and the lives of those around us are in danger of forever suffering from the consequence of our own actions.
