    2020 Christmas Gift Ideas For Your Military Family Member

    September 26, 2020 / No Comments

    Whether they’re back home or still deployed overseas, you want to show the most love and affection for the soldiers in your life. Finding Christmas gifts for family members in the military can be difficult if they’re deployed, because there are some stringent regulations on what you can and cannot send into other countries.  Even when they’re home, military life doesn’t give them much time to find hobbies, so it can be a bit difficult to shop for them either way. There are, however, plenty of good Christmas gifts for any soldier whether they’re at home or away.  Christmas gifts for returned soldier Gifts for momentoes from time in service…

    September 18, 2018 / No Comments

    When you want to become a girlboss, you have to immerse yourself in the habits of other successful people. Which is what this week’s guest blogger wants to share with us. Emma, with Invaluable, has a list of 12 creative people who overcame great failure in order to become successful. Here she is to tell you more below! 12 Creatives Who Overcame Great Failure to Succeed: If you google the definition of failure, you’ll find “lack of success” or “the omission of expected or required action” at the top of the Search Engine Results Page (SERP). Both those definitions yield a negative connotation and suggest that failure has little to…

    Top 10 Easy Ways to Grow Your Career

    August 21, 2018 / No Comments

    When I was little, I used to envision myself as the boss of an office space. Never a specific office–like Nabisco or anything–but always somewhere in a successful role at the office. And I secretly still hoped that I’d get to be a top dog at an office when I graduated college. But I learned quickly that you have to grow your career before you can step into a leadership role. I know that waiting something like 10 or 15 years, sounds like forever when you’re 22. But what I’m realizing now that I’m in the “real” world, is that there’s still a lot to learn. People won’t let you…

    The #1 Thing I Did to Increase My Productivity

    August 14, 2018 / No Comments

    Now that I’m working from home, I’m responsible for my daily actions. This means if I take a nap or spend an hour on social media, instead of writing like I should, then the only one that’s mad is myself. When I made the decision to leave my job, I had to learn how to increase my productivity. We are all responsible for how we choose to spend each day. And it SUCKS when we have a long to do list, but barely scratch the surface. However, if we’re being honest, the list wasn’t too long, we just weren’t disciplined. Am I right?

    The Morning Routine You Need to Win Your Morning

    On days that I have off, I prefer to sleep in–Just a teensy bit past 6AM. However, whenever I do that, I ALWAYS feel like I don’t get as much accomplished as I need to or I end up wasting my day. Research on how to win your morning has taught me where I was going wrong. I recently learned that choosing to sleep-in and be flexible with our morning routines DOES actually affect our productivity. This means our discipline in the morning will set the tone for how productive we are each day. If you want to win your morning, make sure you set a morning routine. The Morning…

    Feeling Tired all the Time? Here’s How to Fix It

    August 7, 2018 / 4 Comments

    Lately, I’ve been waking up in a fog–or at least I feel that way after a few hours of being awake. It’s as if a sheet is pulled over my eyes and I can’t seem to fully wake up. It’s the hardest when I’m feeling tired, but can’t take a nap since I’m at work. Knowing that I couldn’t let this persist, I’ve been doing some research. There’s a condition called Sleep Inertia that persists during the transition of sleep to wakefulness, which can lead to feelings of prolonged drowsiness. Essentially it’s the state of feeling tired all day long. Not something we want to deal with when we still…

    August 2, 2018 / No Comments

    I’m a notorious snooze button person. No matter what I tell myself the night before, when the alarm goes off in the morning, I will roll over and immediately tap the snooze. It started out as a conscious decision, but now it’s become more of a reflex. Until this week, when I learned about the 5 second rule. At first glance, I thought the rule was about quickly eating something I dropped on the floor. It’s not. The 5 second rule is a simple countdown in order for you to take action. And apparently, it’s a major factor of how our day will turn out. How to Use the 5…
