Which Step Have You Reached Today? Goal Setting

Without trying, without taking that first step, life is filled with a lot of what ifs. If you don’t go after what you want, you’ll never have it. If you don’t ask, the answer is always no. If you don’t step forward, you’re always in the same place. – Nora Roberts Even after taking that first step, people will often times stop. Yet, every step taken immensely enhances the value of the first step. Progress hardly ever comes in a straight line. There maybe be times when one needs to take a st

Leadership is About Making a Difference

At an early age, we acclaim what we want to be when we get older. Typically, these ideas are geared around types of professions like, “I’m going to be a police officer” or “I’m going to be a doctor.” A designated path that not too many people set out to be is a leader. While we can learn and practice leadership skills, good leaders are derived from people with innate skills and a passion to make a difference. "A true leader has the confidence to stand alone, the courage to make tough

Low Battery Leadership

Organizations typically praise the last person to leave the office, those who work over the weekends and holidays. Sure, work requires great effort and long hours, but rest and relaxation are just as important. Maybe you’re saying, stress is just a part of the job. But, “work without play is a recipe for burnout.” Employee burnout is evident that the value of a “mental health day” still holds true. You know the day where you just take a day off for yourself and not because of an unexpected r

The Convenience of a Smart Apartment

Coming soon in the heart of Forest Lake, nestled between the bustle of the city and the quaint Hardwood Creek Trail, will be a smart apartment community. We live in a world increasingly connected to smart devices. This surge in popularity is hardly surprising when you consider the new opportunities for convenience, comfort, and luxury they provide. In fact, 57% of Americans say smart products save them around half an hour a day! Before explaining what a smart apartment is, perhaps it's bes

Be Passionate About Your Happiness

What’s become a well-worn phrase is “follow your passion.” Something that is easier said than done. For some people, inspiration comes easy. It appears as if inspiration strikes them and suddenly, they know what they should be doing with their lives. Meanwhile, it takes a lot of work for others. Let me ask you this, what topic could you read hundreds of books on and never get bored? Or, what could you see yourself doing for a few years without getting paid? If you had financial abundan

Change of Address to your New Apartment

In addition to the obvious moving basics like acquiring boxes, gathering packing supplies, renting a truck, or asking for help from friends and family, you’ll want to notifying the right people about your new place. Notifying others about your change of address is better to do earlier than later so that you don’t face any unnecessary hassles like missed bills. After unpacking and organizing your new apartment, you’ll want to relax. Unfortunately, if you haven’t yet changed your address, you’re

If Not This Job, There Will Be Another

When you interview for a job and find out you didn’t get it, it’s not the end of your story. As difficult as it may be, it’s important not to take it too personal. For instance, how many people do you know that have been offered the first job that they’ve applied to? My guess, not too many – if any at all. Perhaps these people exist, but they are far outnumbered by the rest of us who encounter rejection on the way to job hunting success. When rejection is taken personally, it’s harder to

Redirecting Rejection

At one point in time, almost all of us have faced some sort of rejection. Whether it was from a school, a company, family, friends, coworkers, or a promotion that you didn’t receive, rejection hurts. However, rejection has a way of teaching and redirecting us to things, people, places, and opportunities that are sometimes better than originally expected. “Rejection is protection for something greater that is to come” Rejections means taking risks. Risks help us to understand more about who
