Confrontation does not always mean I want to get in a fight with you. When I say I "dislike confrontation," I mean that my heart starts beating 10x faster at the prospect of asking someone for a favor or to debate prices. If I could avoid having to confront someone, 9 out of 10 times, I will.

Which is exactly why I needed to read (or rather listen) to Never Split the Difference. It's all about viewing the art of negotiating through a different lens and giving you the tools to handle these kinds of discussions better.

I am awful about managing my finances.

This simple fact means that no matter how hard I work, and I work hard, I still haven't fulfilled the financial goals that I've been putting on my vision board year after year. 

While the easy solution would be to get a raise or a higher paying job, the fact that I do not know how to properly manage my finances is still a problem. It's the reason why I have a financial advisor, it's why I opened up to my significant other who has taken the challenge of educating me. It's partially why the highly recommended book, "Rich Dad Poor Dad" caught my attention. 

One of the biggest lessons I learned is to focus on investing in my 'asset' column.

What do you do, when you want to look young forever?

While I am currently blessed with youth, I know that beauty isn’t eternal.

This is why I have begun to work diligently on figuring out my ideal skincare routine. This includes a cleanser, toner, moisturizer, and the occasional mask.

Let’s talk about the Bamboo Charcoal Detoxifying Toner

I used to feel pretty self conscious about having my scar from my full right hip replacement.. This was the reason why I purchased Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula with Vitamin E Skin Therapy Oil. It is a product that is meant to reduce the appearance of scars, stretch marks, dry skin, uneven skin tone, and aging skin. I’ll be discussing why I still keep the oil despite my change of heart with my scar.

Bamboo is awesome. For those of you who don’t know, I’ve been striving to live a greener and more minimal lifestyle. One of the greatest ways to go down towards that path is investing in bamboo products. There are plenty out there such as toothbrushes, razors, and even stockings that are made out of bamboo (or mostly bamboo) which are better alternatives to what’s out there.

As apart of The Things I Carry, I will be discussing why I have kept my Victoria’s Secret perfume Tease from my Minimalist Adventure. You can consider this an informal review of sorts and if you want to smell “sexy” then this is the perfume for you.

Today we’ll discuss how one of their many programs, Google Photos, changes my life. As I mentioned in my article about Minimalism, I was attempting to brainstorm ways to be more conscious of what I owned and used on a daily basis.
