It’s always weird sometimes when someone says thank you to me. There was a time I didn’t accept compliments. It wasn’t until years ago, a team I help managed really told me to slow down and appreciate when someone says thank you for the kindness, and guidance I provided straight from the heart.
They knew me well, and never shy away from helping and providing quality information and a strategy for anyone to win. I only help in things that matters and changes lives, everything else I recommend a book to read, for they can obtain that win by doing the work. A few pages a day, a few consulting calls with me, and you will see more of the reality in front of you, than all the distractions.
My life has change drastically because of the internet. They are 8 websites that launched me into a mega internet knowledgeable person and more.
WordPress.com
WorldStarHiphop.com
Pinterest.com
YouTube.com
Reddit.com
Lifehacker.com
Mashable.com
BuzzFeed.com
Now I can’t say this my top 10 best of all times. But these websites were and still critical to the culture of the internet, media, people, news, guides and just entertainment.
Late-night workouts have become my routine these past few months, making me feel a bit like #Batman – only emerging after dark. I’ve discovered a new love for fitness and inner peace.
Writing has also taken up more of my time, letting go of the world’s distractions. It’s tough to pull me out of this focused zone: family, health, mental strength, kindness, and happiness come first.
I’ve got four challenging months ahead, but every bit of it is pushing me toward a purpose.
I have been working on taking my time for grace and relaxation. Working my way back into reading more. I took a bit off time from physical books and I am looking forward to getting back into it.
It’s be a joy to enjoy many other things in my life as I prepare for one of the biggest parts. Reading books has always been a discipline from distractions for me, and I feel it will help me in the next length of my journey.
I wonder what every one else is doing?

Today feels like the perfect day to share this, as I’m celebrating my 17th anniversary on WordPress! Seventeen incredible years! WordPress has been my creative sanctuary, the platform that has stayed with me through every twist and turn. I’m beyond proud of the work I’ve done here and the amazing community that has grown around it. Reflecting on my journey, I’m filled with gratitude – from those simple, early posts to the ones that took off unexpectedly. Each one has shaped not only my platform but also my mental health, creativity, and overall happiness. There’s something truly special about building something that feels like home. When I look back at everything I’ve created, it just hits differently!
And even as I’ve expanded my brand in new directions, finding fresh ways to share my content with the world, I’ve remained dedicated to my writing. Right now, I’m on the longest streak of my life—808 consecutive days of posting! That’s more than two years of showing up, being intentional, and pouring myself into every piece. There’s something magical about hitting a groove like this. I mean, who doesn’t love a good 808?
I am happy for another year to continue to grow and experience the world. I just want to thank everyone who have passed by my blog, commented, intereacted, and have great moments in the comment section, cheers to you.
I don’t usually post my photos up on my site, but I will be back to doing so. The writer must stand beside his works and audience.
Do lazy days make you feel rested or unproductive?
The answer is forever, rested. I love resting and recharging my body and mind. I only feel unproductive if I am lingering and can make decisions to do things but unable. When it comes to rest, rest is so vital. I need rest and it has down so much good to my mental health and happiness.
