And even better—You already know how to do it!! You did it before. Your parents too. Even your (more…)

I kid you not–right before I left for my trip to South America, my Pops handed me a red 6’x8’ tarp.

Now, I’m not going to talk about how to find your passion, because that’s another subject altogether. Today, I’m talking about the one thing you need to know about your passions:

They will. Everything in this world changes with time, and your passions hold no exceptions. Knowing this is key to your happiness and success, because now you can adapt and  (more…)

Nomad (n.) is a Latin word that describes someone who does not stay long in the same place; a wanderer.. And for the last 14 months, I have absolutely fallen under this definition.
