No, that’s not a typo in the title. It might be Christmas Eve, but I’m not talking about presents…I’m talking about presence. The holiday season is upon us, which hopefully means more time with family, friends, and other loved ones. While exchanging gifts and presents, don’t forget that the greatest gift you can give someone is your presence–being there with them in the moment without distraction. I’m guilty of not always being present in family settings…scrolling my phone while being semi-present to the conversations and people in the room. It’s not something I’m proud of, but now that I am more aware of it, I can do something about it. And what better time than Christmas Eve with my family and Christmas Day with my in-laws? I’m sure the sweater, shoes, or V-bucks you bought will be well received and appreciated, but I know your attention and presence will be appreciated even more. Over the next few days, give the greatest gift you can and be present with the loved ones in your life. JC |

If you’re not living the life you feel called to live, keep exploring and experimenting until you discover your...
One of my favorite J. Cole songs right now is 99 Build Freestyle off his Birthday Blizzard mixtape that he released leading up to the release of his album The Fall Off. For those who grew up on 90’s hip hop, the song is over the iconic Lox Money, Power, & Respect beat—it’s high energy and gets me hyped for the day, which is why it’s one of the first songs I listen to in my car. The title of the song, 99 Build, refers to the perfect build of a player in video games, specifically the NBA 2K...
“Authentic happiness derives from raising the bar for yourself, not rating yourself against others.” -Martin Seligman It’s always YOU. It’s always you who determines what success looks like. It’s always you who knows what your life is supposed to be. The only person you need to “compete” with is your Self. See you tomorrow and keep pursuing, JC
