New Year, New You?



Tomorrow is New Year’s Eve!

You know what that means, right?

Time to become a completely different person by transforming your life.

I hope you have your New Year’s Resolutions ready!!

It’s almost go-time!!!

...

Woah, woah, woah, hold-up a second!

Why do so many people wait till the new year to try implementing changes in their life anyway?

Why does the prospect of the new year hype people up so much though?

Is genuine change only possible once a year?

Of course not!

Personally, I’ve never been one to get excited over the new year.

And I certainly haven’t been one to make New Year's Resolutions.

I set goals 365 days a year.

I read 365 days a year. 

I work towards my dreams 365 days a year.

I don’t need the earth rotating around the sun an additional time to pump me up.

And neither do YOU.

Any time of the year is a great time to make that change you’ve been wanting to make.

Sure, waiting till New Year’s might seem like a good time to launch into your goals– 

After all, it makes logical sense to start during the first month of the year, right?-- 

But the TRUTH is that many people set goals simply for the sake of it, and end-up reverting back to their old ways by February or March (perhaps even sooner in some cases.)

The best example of this is how membership at gyms skyrockets in January before significantly dipping in February.

People are creatures of habit.

And to actually transform your life, you must transform your habits.

And I hate to break it to you, but changing habits will always require WORK.

Another trip around the sun doesn’t have a magic effect.

YOU always have the power to change.

Every day is a new opportunity to make that change.

And YOU can do it if you BELIEVE you can!

Don’t wait until the new year to change.

DO IT NOW!!

Look Good, Feel Great!

  Look Good, Feel Great!: Looking good is a huge part of style, and it’s the most obvious part, in my opinion. Most of the time, people start dressing-up because they want to convey a message to those around them. But there’s a second, much more important aspect of style and personal image. That being how style makes a person FEEL When you look good, you feel great! And even more than that, your feelings will radiate out onto other people who will be drawn to you. Style to me has always been about feeling my best; in fact, style was a significant part of me overcoming my body image issues. I was never really one to seek compliments or enjoy flattery– even though that stuff obviously comes with looking your best– rather what mattered to me was how style literally changed the way I felt. I remember putting on my first suit and feeling the most empowered I have ever felt. Not only that, but I noticed pretty quickly how everywhere I went I was treated differently.  People started ...

  Art can be incredibly motivating and being around art can have an immensely empowering effect on us.  It’s a similar effect to one experienced while being surrounded by religious relics or statues– art can make us feel invigorated and influenced by something greater than ourselves. It’s almost like experiencing what John Keats called the Sublime in a more easily accessible way.  According to Romanticist writers like Keats, the Sublime is defined as a meeting of the subjective-internal and objective-external, and is the strongest emotion we as Humans can experience.  It typically requires us to put ourselves in awe-inspiring situations like seeing the sunrise from the peak of a mountain or looking up at a statue that towers over us. Instead of climbing a mountain or finding a huge statue though, with art we only need to go to a museum or into our living room, if we’re collectors. There are many different types of art and genres, all of which can have a powerful effe...
