It’s not where you started fit’s where you end up!

... Read moreThe notion of a journey is crucial in understanding personal and professional growth. It's essential to recognize that everyone starts in different places, but the key to success lies in your efforts throughout the process. Challenges and obstacles can become stepping stones for development. To cultivate resilience, focus on setting achievable goals and celebrating small victories. Embrace learning from setbacks as they often provide valuable lessons that lead to greater achievements. Surrounding yourself with a supportive community can also inspire motivation and accountability. Remember, as you navigate through life's journey, it's the experiences and the growth you gain along the way that truly define your success. Commit to continuous improvement, remain adaptable, and watch how your destination evolves creatively and positively.

If you would’ve told freshman me that I would now be getting my PhD and Physics. I would’ve thought you were crazy. I went into college, choosing a major based on what I thought other people wanted from me instead of what I actually enjoyed and I’m really glad that I was able to make the change

where did you start in the bible?
I started in Job—underlining, annotating, and yes, even making jokes along the way. I’m not here to perform spirituality or pretend to be someone I’m not. If a thought comes to mind while reading, I’m writing it down. Honest engagement over empty performance. #biblecrazy #studythebiblewithme
