It’s a habit I’ve recently started doing more with every day. there are constant reminders to be grateful around my house; from whiteboard notes in the shower to post-it notes on my fridge.

One of things I’ll always remember about my father was the note he had written on his desk, that said: “The only cure for a dirty mind is a clean desk.” As I’ve begun to walk in similar career steps as him, it’s been a constant reminder of how easy it is to get sidetracked […]
