Are you a lifelong learner?

Aren’t we all? Absolutely! If we aren’t learning and evolving, are we experiencing anything? Are we paying attention in our daily lives? As much as I listen to podcasts (I definitely need to read more), I feel like a lot of learning comes from life lessons. Being a human with an ego in this chaotic world is no easy feat!

What’s one habit that has improved your life the most?

Gratitude!!! Making a list of things that I am grateful for truly brings me to the present moment and shows me how blessed I am. Whether it is writing it down or speaking out loud by myself when I’m on a drive, I notice such a difference in my mood and how present I am when I practice it.

Is a little chaos actually good for us?

Absolutely! How else would we build resilience on this crazy planet we call Earth? Of course constant chaos would drive anyone mad, but a nice balance is necessary for human evolution.

What’s the best way to deal with negative thoughts?

I’d say to try to recognize that all of our thoughts are not meant for us to attach to. If a certain negative thought keeps coming up, maybe try writing it down and asking “is this true?” Also, remember brains tend to have a negative bias as a means to survive so it’s important to actively look for positive things. I personally feel practicing gratitude is a great way to get present and combat negative thoughts.

What’s a lesson you’ve learned recently that shifted your perspective?

Boredom can be a wonderful thing when you realize it’s where peace resides and creativity is born.
