Leaving college and starting a first job is a hard transition. For me, it is especially challenging because I spent the better part of the last four years in a different state away from home, and now I’m back at home but away from my friends. I miss the pace of life – going from classes to lunch with different friends to extracurriculars to spending my evenings in the dorm with the community I built. The excitement of starting a career comes with the loss of the rhythms and r

Artificial intelligence has risen so extremely fast over the last couple of years. Its revolutionary power will likely make it the technology that defines my lifetime, just like the creation of the internet or cars defined previous generations. It is still unclear how powerful the technology will be and how it will shape our lives, but the potential is definitely both exciting and frightening. I wanted to highlight a couple of ways that AI has impacted my life as a recent col

We all want goodness in life; it is human nature. Most of the time, especially in my case, it is hard to have patience for goodness to happen. It is easy to get impatient and try to force something that isn’t meant to be, yet . In today’s society, patience has become less common because of the ways that inventions have spoiled us.

People make New Year’s resolutions for many reasons, but mine are always grounded in self-improvement through reflection on past shortcomings. This year, I want to approach the New Year biblically—focusing on reflection, repentance, renewal, and rededication by remembering God’s faithfulness, confessing sin, recommitting to His Word and prayer, and setting eternal goals. Rather than pursuing merely worldly resolutions, I choose to trust in His guidance (Proverbs 3:5–6) and re

I’ve been into sports for as long as I can remember. I started playing hockey back in elementary school, ran cross country in high school, and tried out a bunch of other sports along the way. One of the biggest things I’ve taken from all of that, especially the endurance-based parts, is mental grit. That ability to keep going, even when everything in you is telling you to stop.  Cross country really taught me that. It is a pretty straightforward sport. You just run a set dist

It is easy to get lost in time and mindlessly run through the motions of a daily routine just trying to make it to the next day. In doing this we often lose focus on everything we are grateful for. Gratitude is a very powerful tool that is often overlooked but contributes to living a happier life. Taking a moment out of each day to reflect on what you are grateful for can lighten your day. My grandma has a sign in her house that says, “What if I woke up today with everything

Tracking expenses correctly is a fundamental practice for any business, not to mention that it can be very beneficial for personal finances as well. Accurate, organized records provide a clear view of where money is being spent, making it easier to identify unnecessary costs and allocate resources effectively.
