Barn Storming
Despite what folks tend to think, the dancer that rattles around in a pea whistle ain’t a pea. It is a pea-sized ball of synthetic cork. It’s my job to know these things. I’m an Eagle Scout now. Too much spit when you blow, and the cork gets stuck. If it’s jammed in the wrong spot you can hardly make any sound at all.

The Sadhana of Therapeutic Writing
Writings are almost eternal! Whether it is fiction or philosophy, information from eons has reached us through literary works. Great thinkers across the planet have reformed the world through their literature. In the ancient world, whether saint or seeker, writing their perspective was a common practice. Hence, we come across all kinds of scriptures, from atheistic viewpoints to realizing this entire creation as the Divine.

The Ingredients of Grace
There is a coffee and bakery shop downtown in Xenia OH, known as the “City of Hospitality.” I found Coffee Hub the first week after I graduated and moved out of Women's Recovery Center back in February of 2018. WRC is a drug and alcohol treatment facility for women. That place saved my life, and this place that I’m about to show you made life more bright.

Secret to Success
John, a man in his early 40s, had struggled most of his life, having no college education, and working odd jobs just to keep his head above water throughout his adult life. He had many friends, though, all of which seemed to be very successful - owning houses and multiple expensive vehicles.

Why We Are Wrong About Motivation?.
Microsoft launched an encyclopedia in 1993, with lucrative incentives for writers and contributors, they hardly managed to publish 62,000 articles under the Encarta Trademark in various languages, including German, French, Spanish, Dutch, Italian, Proteaguse and Japanese. Despite all the incentives and resources, they finally decided to close it in 2009.

Out of my Comfort Zone
It's 14 days in into 2021, but it feels as it was longer. I knew that I wanted a change this year. I know that my efforts are scattered and not focused. I know that I need more discipline and motivation. I know that I need something that will carry me through the hard work and the tough days.

Redefining success during times of stress & adversity
In 2017, I was told by doctors that I would likely never walk again in a meaningful way. Three years and thurteen operations later, I have defied the odds, not only learning to walk again but also completing two 100km bike rides and achieving my CPA (certifed practicing accountant) from my hospital bed. I credit my adaptability and resilience and my ability to redefine my version of success, as being vital in the fight to regain control of my legs (and life) which I hope will help others reposition challenges in their own lives.

Don't Give Up
I must say... the last few months have been very tough. I went through a lot of things. I was very depressed and unhappy. Yesterday I decided to put that all behind me and start fresh. Its okay if we fall sometimes we just need to get right back up. Brand new, clear mind and head, really try getting out of my head.

More than author.
Introduction We all evolve as we learn and grow over the years and for me it is something I welcome. I am at a point in my life where I am really finding myself again. I am rediscovering what makes me happy and that is writing. I am learning there is more to writing than what I grew up believing or maybe it is what I was taught to think. This article is about how I began writing when I was young. What I am learning about writing and how I am evolving into more than an author.

New Year, Old Me
I am one of those people. I will admit it. I am one of those trend followers that is constantly looking for new and improved methods of achieving a healthy lifestyle; of achieving that "wellness" that nowadays has come to be a pinnacle of success in life.

Being Great Again
All that matters is what we do now, with mapping out our future from the past we leave behind. Being born in the heart of Brooklyn, NY, where I became a man before being a man, been the greatest experience of my life, working hard, mapping out and learning what’s wrong and what seems to be right. Looking back now, shows how right everyone has been for me, because anything someone do or say to me would always lead me in the right direction, whether it’s bad or good in their case. I traveled to many places, learning many things over the past and I tend to keep growing to a better space in my life” in spite of” all the evils that follows along with hate/hatred and cruelty. Over the years, I became a potential entrepreneur/business, helped out many souls, whether they listen, believed it or took what I gave and ran. “Won’t stop me” I gave my best advices, best attention and best attitudes, not another soul would stop me from being Great Again! My name is Donta J. Norman, come Nike’ with me, Life matters! It matters to those that matters, but the truth of any story is that no matter what life brings, pushing for the goals you peruse remember your life matters just as much. The harder we push to your dreams, the better your thoughts in life will bring you. From the moment you are born, everyone is always giving you advice and telling you how you should live your life. I always listen to others' advice, but I do not always follow it. There has been one piece of advice I have followed since the day it has been given to me and will continue to follow for the rest of my life.

One Foot in Front of the Other...
We’re now basking in the “joy” of our another lockdown here in London. The first one, once we’d all realised it wasn’t the end of the world, wasn’t too bad. Well, I say that now, but at the time I was too afraid to tell anyone we were having a lovely time not having to face the human rapids of central London, it was the sunniest Spring on record (the washing actually dried in one day!) and there were finally enough hours in the day to work on our own projects. But some friends & colleagues weren’t coping too well with the isolation and constantly present fears. While some of us were glued to screens for productive purposes, others couldn’t tear themselves away from bigger screens and those ever-addictive formulas that make good TV binge-worthy. There were clearly people who were running for the first time ever (“heavers” they were affectionately labelled and our masks were donned as they huffed & huffed toward us). Marathon TV or YouTube sessions don’t get the blood flowing, nor the mind cleared, and so consequently there were a good number of us who felt less & less comfortable as that first lockdown progressed.
