I was on the phone with a very dear friend last week. I was asking him advice about what I should do after finishing school.
It all started the day after I returned from Peru. I was so sick that I couldn’t…
Draw a circle.
Put a dot in the middle. That’s you!
Look at the entire circle. That’s your comfort zone!
Look outside the circle. That’s all the monsters in the world ready to eat you alive the moment you step outside your…

Excitement is not just a tool that at moments can be used as compass, a shaker, a catalyst, a magnet, a connector.
This holiday weekend, my wife, son, and I find ourselves at our good friends’ house. Since we’re fans…
Les dieux sont des sacrés farceurs. Les grecs anciens s’en doutaient déjà un peu, tout en fonçant tête baissée dans le piège tendu. Car, si les dieux nous ont offert l’intelligence et la conscience, ils n’ont pas su se…
Maybe the universe is trying to connect us.
Hey Jeremy. I gave you a few more claps. Isn’t it symptomatic that so few people are willing to hear this kind of message? 9 claps no comments!
Medium readers don’t seem open to this kind of truth, most of them preferring the old lies of “get rich or die while trying”.

Seriously I just got the app and that was crazy inspirational I needed this thank you for your work. It really hit home for me and Now I’m thinking maybe a lot of people. Thank You Again
The ideas are great, but not new. These days it’s what’s involved to make it happen. Making your blog stand out from others. Getting on all forms of social media and posting links. Researching what’s current so that you’re audience won’t get bored. Knowing your rights and protecting your work. Updating content and staying consistent while having a…

People are so quick to judge others, when the skeletons in their closets are poking out.
The sun burns, boldlyWhile we warm, gently.Humanity cries, softlyAnd here we are dancing,in the glow at dusk, sweetly.Together we join…
I like different kinds of content format.

Drop The Load! Un Tame Yourself
90% of us read inspiration stories at least twice a week. It could be intentionally or by luck on Social Media.
Every time we read such stories we got motivated, energised and feel that we can hit the world confidentially and destroy the monsters. It takes an hour before facing your first issue at work or to read another…
Waking up on a chilly rainy morning I just finished this moving piece you wrote. Having grown up in South Georgia in the 1950–60's I remember well the @institutionalized racism of the final years of Jim Crow. In 1963 I went with some of my friends to see the iconic film To Kill a Mockingbird. The effect that it had has been permanently branded in my…

Inspiring, thanks for the article. We should use our heart to see things and feel it.
Kevin, it is so true and the key lies in recognition of your newfound powers whilst being humble and grateful so as not to stray from your true being. Love your response. Being happy trumps all.
Not every day is going to be an exciting, motivating, break-through day. There will be days where things don’t work, where you feel behind, where nothing seems to go right, and the weight of the world is on your shoulders.
I saw the move “Bad Rap” and I must say that I loved it. It was very inspirational. While I myself am not an Asian rapper I can still relate to a lot of the things they went through and talked about. It also gave me an understanding from another perspective when they had industry professionals listen to their…
