About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To find BALANCE and to live with PURPOSE.

ABOUT ME

I'm all about the outdoors. I'm addicted to traveling, and I travel every chance I get. I also love sports. Anything that would get me moving and working up a good sweat actually. I'm currently living and working in Ottawa. My schedule is often tight, but that won't stop me from living the life!

I am big on health, self-development and personal growth. I also like making people laugh. It's one of the best medicines out there!

PHILOSOPHY

Learn something new every day

Develop an endless curiosity about this world

Remember people's names

Get fit

Learn to focus on the present and live in THIS moment

Smile more often

Drink water

Don't take life too seriously

Think positive thoughts

Get in the sun

Read books

Help others

Be honest at all times

Figure out what your goals and dreams are

Worry less, judge less, experience more

Travel!

Learn to be unaffected by words of others (Their experience of who you are says nothing about who you actually are)

Learn to forgive (yourself first)

Be the person that makes others feel special

Learn to Lucid dream

Give your body and mind the rest they deserve. Relax!

Meditate every day

Learn to control your mind and emotions

Learn speed reading

Work on making good first impressions

Learn to use your senses to their full potential

Be aware of your surroundings

Be mysterious

Get good at something

Exercise your brain just as you do your muscles

Do what you love

Chose your friends wisely

Don't burn bridges

Learn to recognize and trust your subconscious and intuition

Learn how to love

Rid yourself of greed and the material concept for it is a bottomless well which will never cease to hunger

Remember we are only human.

Music, Movies, and Books

I know this is what everyone says, but it really does depend on my mood. I usually just put on 8tracks and listen to whatever I feel like. If a song comes up that I don't like,I just change it!

Hang gliding over the Alpine mountains in Interlaken Switzerland

Sleeping under the star filled sky of Sahara desert in Morocco
