Time to Move On — At the top of the year, I wrote that I would be switching the writing schedule from daily to weekly. I’ve decided to make another pivot and scrap it altogether. And to be quite honest, it’s for one simple reason: I don’t want to do a weekly write up. I…

Week 5 If I had to point to something that I would consider to be a W for the week, it would be this. Since self-doubt seeps into all areas of life when entertained, logo design, specifically this badge logo style, has been a skill that I’ve lacked confidence in…

Staying on Offense — Even though it’s only been a week since I wrote the last post, it feels like I haven’t written on here in a month. I suppose that’ll happen after switching the approach up after writing daily for so long. Anyway, I just wanted to quickly share one of the projects…

Week 3 — I’ll admit, I wasn’t quite prepared for this post. I’ll admit again that I’ve gotten used to not having to write a blog every day on the internet. It’s been allowing me to regain some much-needed focus. If there’s one thing of value that I took from this week, it’s…

What’s Next — So I’ve written a blog here on Medium for two years straight now. I can honestly say it was one of the best decisions I could’ve made in 2016. After years of being inconsistent and unfocused, this blog has been an anchor in my life. I fully attribute me sticking with the notecards to this daily blog. But as much it has helped me, during the past few months I’ve felt as though it’s been a hindrance at times. While I gave myself the freedom to write about anything really, the foundation of it was supposed to be documentation for my life and the rise I would be on.

Step into it. — Late last night, or super early in the morning rather, I skated to the river before coming home to write yesterday’s blog. Not only was it 25 degrees out, but there was also fog as thick as I’ve ever seen it here in Eugene. To be quite frank, it was…
