Ever wonder why your brain feels like mush after a day of picking out peanut butter, replying to texts, and resisting those checkout aisle Reese’s Cups? Turns out, you’re making around 35,000 decisions a day. From swiping through potential dates on the toilet (hey, no judgment) to deciding if that captcha is a seal or a traffic light, it’s no wonder by the end of the day you’re ready to call it quits. This non-stop decision-making is known as ‘decision fatigue,’ and it’s probably draining more than

During a casual family walk, something hit me—not literally, though my head’s always on a swivel like a New York pigeon.

Around 95% of serotonin is produced in the gut, highlighting the strong link between gut health and mental health issues like anxiety and depression.

How To Get Things Done As A Perfectionist

The Motivated Mind ·

2024/09/02

You know that nagging feeling that nothing’s ever quite good enough? Yeah, I get it too. I’m a perfectionist, through and through.

The Power of Showing Up

The Motivated Mind ·

2024/08/29

On a quiet Sunday morning, I found myself captivated by a bird on a mission—flying tirelessly back and forth, building a nest outside my home. Watching this little creature work day after day, I realized it embodied qualities we often overlook: consistency, perseverance, and relentless ambition. Often we, as humans, struggle to show up for ourselves, especially when life throws obstacles our way. It’s easy to get discouraged when results don’t appear immediately or when life’s challenges seem too

The Philosophy That Made Tony Robbins A Self-Help...

The Motivated Mind ·

2024/08/22

Standing next to Tony Robbins is like standing next to a giant. At 6 foot 6 and 275 pounds, he towers over most people, including me at 5 foot 8 on a good day. But Tony Robbins isn’t just a physical giant—he’s been dominating the self-help world since 1997, earning the title of the nation’s #1 Life and Business Strategist. Millions know his name, have attended his events, and read his books. But few know the man who inspired Tony's success. That man was Jim Rohn, the original godfather of self-help,

In a world of over 500,000 films, one thing is consistent—each story has a hero. From superheroes like Superman to historical figures like Gandhi, these characters inspire us to be courageous, to see opportunities where others see obstacles, and to take on challenges despite the odds. But as we grow older, many of us lose sight of our inner hero. We trade our capes for routine and let life happen to us instead of taking charge. It’s time to reclaim your story. It’s time to decide.

Stop Shaving Off Your Weird Edges

The Motivated Mind ·

2024/08/08

Each of us is unique, shaped by our genes, upbringing, and experiences. Yet, society often pressures us to conform, shaving down the unique edges that make us who we are. Like robots in iRobot, we become indistinguishable, losing our individuality and the richness of our diverse perspectives. I've felt this pressure myself, especially as a content creator. Society's demands to be something to everyone can dull our true selves, making us lose our edges. I used to censor myself, trying to be perfect

Jeff Bezos's fortune is vast, but he isn't the richest person in history. That title belongs to Mansa Musa, whose wealth, even adjusted for inflation, surpasses Bezos, Elon Musk, and Bill Gates combined. Ruling the Mali Empire in the 1300s, Musa controlled vast gold and salt reserves and his immense generosity caused a decade-long gold recession in cities like Cairo, Medina, and Mecca. He transformed Timbuktu into a global center of trade, culture, and learning. Despite his monumental impact, Mansa
