We all have ‘the will.’ Very few have the will to win, some have the will to last, many have the will to carry on, but most still haven’t...

“Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity.” We’ve heard this saying many times, but is it right? The past week got me rethinking the meaning of luck, and as much as I’m tempted to agree with the above statement because it’s been shared so widely, I disagree with how luck is defined here. When I was younger, one of the greatest fears that I had was that all my achievements in life would be viewed as luck, no matter how hard I tried — if I failed, it was my bad

If you read my last blog post , you may recall that I mentioned my dad and the significant influence he's had on me since I was a little girl. The man has officially turned 60 today while I'm on the other side of the globe, so I think the best way to honor him is to share with you three important lessons my dad taught me that I find relevant to all of us, especially during such difficult times like this. The first lesson — also the most important one — is self-care . His fa
