Hey, glad you showed up! 

Around here, we discuss spiritual topics, book summaries, and other related content.

In many ways, I intend to offer you some distinctions that can at least create some awareness around these three domains:

1. What we know, we know: Which is very small. 

2. What we know, we don’t know: This is where most traditional learning and development happens. (e.g., school, organization assemblies, our environments, etc.) 

3. What we don’t know, we don’t know: This is where we follow our curiosities, exploring ideas that can wake us up to things, we didn’t even know we didn’t know.

You don’t know what you don’t know. You realize there are all these things out there. — Elon Musk

In 2019, I read The Traveler’s Gift by Andy Andrews.

The book opened up my eyes, and gave me hope to dream again.

So, I got excited that week, then started sharing the insights with readers on the web.

Fundamentally, the purpose was to explore unmapped territories, making new connections, to improve my life situation, and serve my audience.

After years of challenges, crisis, wrestling with addiction and depression, I was led to believe that cultivating a foundational routine habits will alter my life for the better, so I begin with the following:

1. Begins to eat clean and drink healthfully.
2. Exercise/weight training— 4 to 6 days a week. 
3. Reading thought-provoking books. 
4. Practicing sitting meditation.
5. Getting quality sleep. Going to bed at the same time, every night. And
6. Decluttering, embracing a minimalist lifestyle.

And sure enough, things started looking up.

I felt more calm.

Optimistic.

And had a sense of clarity I’d never felt before.

I realize I love learning things, and brighten someone else’s day.

My journey has fueled my curiosity to explore the intersection of psychology, personal development, and everyday life.
