“You are the light.
It’s not on you.
It’s in you.
Don’t ever you in your life, dim your light for nobody.”
- St. Chroma, Tyler, the Creator
Tyler, the Creator’s new album starts with this message from his mother, who acts as his guide throughout the album. It’s an excellent message for all of us to remember because maybe we’re in a position where light seems to be shining on us, or we’re chasing others who we think have light shining on them. We need to remember that the light is within us, so we don’t need to ever worry about losing it or needing to chase it—it’s already here. We just need to find it within and let it shine. JC |

Allowing my Self to fall out of alignment.Allowing my Self to get...
“The search for meaning is only valid if you’re willing to take action with what you find.” - Paul Rosolie I’ve recently gone down the Paul Rosolie rabbit hole thanks to his recent podcast appearances on Modern Wisdom and The Diary of a CEO. If you haven’t heard of Paul before, I highly recommend checking out one of the episodes, and I’m going to recommend his new book even though my copy hasn’t even arrived yet. Paul’s purpose in life is to save the Amazon, and he committed himself to this...
Yesterday, I received a prototype of a t-shirt I want to make for the PRST brand, which sparked a cool back-and-forth with a friend on LinkedIn. The shirt, still in development mode since I don’t like the style of t-shirt it was printed on, was inspired by a shirt from the brand 247. 247 is the athletic-wear division of the Represent brand, and in many of the vlogs on the Represent and its co-founder George Heaton’s YouTube channels, you will see a black t-shirt with small holes and tears...
