It's Kodi Here

Hello world it's Kodi here with yet another strategy I have found helpful for keeping the anxiety of being an adult in the real world at bay. Do Nothing. Spend a few moments of each day genuinely just doing nothing. Now I happen to be a big fan of meditation and I'm sure will be sharing bits about that later on, but in case that's not your thing--then maybe this is. In a way they are one and the same, there is just something about "do nothing" that seems less like one more thing to add to your to-do list. So if you hit a point where your mind begins spiraling through all of the things that you should be stressing about. Breathe, write the worries down if you need to so you don't stress about forgetting them--and then just do nothing. Let your body just do its thing, even for a few moments. Our bodies do so much and work so hard, even when we are at rest. Sometimes it's nice just to acknowledge that and give your body a little room to breathe. Following...

Hello world, Kodi here. So I've made the decision to go back through all of the blog posts that have just been sitting as drafts for far too long. I figure, they were things I wanted to say at some point but never felt that they were ready.

There's a Buddhist belief of Impermanence that goes "Everything changes, nothing lasts forever." So let's say for a moment that we go along with this belief--then there is zero point in doing anything that is not experiencing the moment that you are in to the fullest ...

 Hello world, it's Kodi here and today I wanted to share with you my efforts in trying to achieve a personal goal that I set when I got my Passion Planner . A few months later, when I started this blog it also became #3 on my ten year goal list . As I mentioned in my last post, I am a very empathetic and emotional person, and because of that I am very easily affected by the emotions of those around me. So, to create a happy and healthy environment to live in I created the goal of living in a positive sphere of people. By the time I am 30 I hope to have fixed all negative relationships in my life, or at least have a solid way of staying grounded and happy when with these people. On top of this being a personal goal for me, I believe that living a life with positive and inspiring people around you can really improve your happiness on a day to day basis. Ever since I was a kid I've had issues with negative relationships from bullying in school, to friends who are pessimists, to ...
