Terri Nikki

Thoughts of a Dreamer is a podcast for creatives, dreamers and individuals who feel as though they just can’t get to the next level. So I’m here to talk out the mental hurdles and roadblocks you may be experiencing so you can achieve and LIVE OUT YOUR DREAMS! Let’s go!

In this episode, I’m calling myself and every other dreamer out. For years, I carried the same vision in my head, replayed the same fantasy, and convinced myself that “dreamer magic” would somehow bring it to life. I could imagine every detail with perfect clarity, but I wasn’t taking the consistent action necessary to turn that vision into reality. I talk openly about how dreamers get stuck in the cycle of dreaming without doing—circling the same Pinterest boards, waiting for signs, relying on manifestation, or hoping something external will shift on our behalf. This episode breaks down the difference between imagination and discipline, and why potential feels so intoxicating while execution feels uncomfortable.

I also explore the emotional addiction behind dreaming: the dopamine hit, the sense of possibility, and the escapism that makes fantasy feel safer than action. To make this relatable, I draw parallels to how we romanticize people and relationships based on potential while ignoring reality, and how that same behavior shows up in our creative and professional lives. Through my own birthday reflection, I share how leaning too heavily on dreamer magic delayed my growth and kept me detached from the work required to build what I envision.

If you’ve ever felt like your dreams never seem to materialize, or if you catch yourself waiting for the “perfect moment,” the “right sign,” or the “right energy” to start, this episode will challenge that mindset. I emphasize that dreams are previews, not finished films, and they do not transform into reality without intentional, uncomfortable steps. This episode is a direct activation: stop circling the airport and start taking the small, grounded actions that bring your dream out of your head and into your life. If you’re ready to trade fantasy for forward motion, this is your starting point.

In this episode of Thoughts of a Dreamer, I explore one of the biggest challenges I face as a creative and a visionary: the tension between the excitement of a big idea and the discomfort of the small steps required to bring it to life. I talk openly about how easily I can expand a single thought into a fully imagined future within hours, while the reality of actually starting still feels intimidating and slow. I share how that leap from imagination to action exposes a deeper emotional truth—small steps often feel vulnerable, tedious, or even beneath me, especially when the fantasy in my mind feels so complete and effortless.

Throughout the episode, I break down why dreamers like me get attached to the final vision and avoid the early stages of execution. I explore the discomfort of beginner energy, the fear of judgment, the impatience with slow progress, and the safety of staying in my imagination where nothing can go wrong. I ask the questions I’ve had to ask myself: Why do the small steps feel threatening? What am I protecting by staying in the fantasy? What internal beliefs make the process feel overwhelming or discouraging?

By reframing small steps as essential parts of the creative journey rather than obstacles, I remind myself—and anyone listening—that big dreams are built on consistent, incremental growth. I also guide listeners toward a practical next step: returning to the seed of their vision, choosing one small action to take, and noticing the feelings that arise when it’s time to move from dreaming to doing.

This episode is for anyone who has ever been stuck between inspiration and execution, who has ever felt paralyzed by the gap between the idea in their head and the work required to bring it into reality. My goal is to help you understand your own creative patterns, confront the limiting beliefs that hold you back, and begin building momentum toward the dream you keep imagining.

In this final part of my Limiting Belief series, I’m getting real about something so many dreamers deal with—but don’t always name: that moment when you get excited about a big idea, then suddenly freeze, pause, or disappear from it completely.

I’m sharing the exact loop I’ve caught myself in—the one that convinces us to stop right before momentum hits. I’ll walk you through how limiting beliefs sneak in dressed as logic, how my nervous system still reacts to old scripts (even when I know better), and what it really takes to move forward when fear won’t leave the room.

This isn’t just about mindset—it’s about movement. And this time? I’m flipping the script. Let’s go.

Have you ever felt like something inside you was holding you back, but you couldn’t quite name it? Like every time you get close to the dream, something quietly convinces you to stop?

In this episode—the third installment of the Limiting Beliefs series—we explore one of the most dangerous lies: the kind that sounds like your own voice. The kind that doesn’t shout “You can’t,” but gently whispers, “This is just who you are.”

Terri breaks down how fear disguises itself as identity, weaving itself into your inner monologue until you're no longer sure what's you and what's survival. Using the powerful metaphor of painted stripes on a zebra, she illustrates how false narratives form over time, often beginning with childhood conditioning, rejection, failure, or shame. These “painted-on” beliefs start to feel real because they’ve been repeated—by others, by your inner critic, and eventually, by your own actions.

Through personal storytelling and real-time reflection, Terri explores her own fear of visibility and how it shaped her approach to success. She unpacks the ways in which staying behind the scenes became a defense mechanism—one she misidentified as a personality trait. This episode invites you to ask bold questions, challenge inherited scripts, and reclaim the parts of you that got buried under repetition and fear.

Whether you’re building a dream, breaking old patterns, or simply trying to understand your resistance to growth, this conversation will help you spot the fraud you’ve been living with—and remind you of the truth underneath.

In this episode of Thoughts of a Dreamer, I break down how limiting beliefs are born inside the brain — and why fear can sound so reasonable that we mistake it for truth.

We’ll explore what happens when the amygdala (your body’s bodyguard) hijacks your logic, how the prefrontal cortex tries to clean up the story, and how that split-second loop turns into lifelong hesitation.

From posting your first TikTok to confessing your feelings to someone you like, you’ll see how fear dresses up as logic to keep you “safe.” Through real stories, neuroscience receipts, and the viral elevator metaphor, I'll shows you how comfort can become a cage — and how to press the button that moves you forward.

Key Takeaways:

  • A limiting belief is just fear that has been learned to sound convincing.
  • How the amygdala–prefrontal tug-of-war creates the safety loop.
  • What negative reinforcement and the “low-road” fear pathway mean in real life.
  • Signs you’re safe and stuck — and how to start rewiring the loop.
  • The challenge: identify what triggers your nervous system, sit with it, and ask, “Is this fear or fact?

This episode kicks off the Limiting Belief Series with a raw, practical look at the invisible line between who we are and who we’re becoming.

I break down what limiting beliefs really are, how they quietly script our choices, and why “just think positive” doesn’t work when your brain is built for comfort.

Through stories, science made simple, and that unforgettable “bug-on-paper” metaphor, you’ll learn to spot the mental stories that whisper you can’t—and rewrite them in real time.

Expect truth, humor, and a gentle push to stop walking in circles and take one honest step forward.

You’ll learn to:

  • Catch the belief hiding after your “because”
  • Question if your reason is real or recycled
  • Replace fear with one small act of proof
  • Recognize when your circle normalizes stuckness

Have you ever noticed how one “no” can drown out a hundred “yeses”? In this episode of Thoughts of a Dreamer, Terri unpacks the psychology of negativity bias—the mental habit that makes us fixate on rejection and overlook support. Whether you’re a creator, entrepreneur, or someone trying to bring a dream to life, this episode explores how that single voice of doubt can become louder than every cheer in the room.

Terri shares personal stories and relatable moments that reveal how negativity bias shows up in everyday life—from the six-year-old afraid to sing again after being teased, to the adult second-guessing their work after one small critique. You’ll learn how the brain naturally leans toward fear and how that survival mechanism, left unchecked, can sabotage creative progress and self-belief.

But this isn’t just theory—it’s transformation. Terri walks you through practical ways to retrain your focus, recover emotionally from setbacks, and reclaim momentum. From creating a “proof board” of wins to practicing faster bounce-backs, she shows you how to replace perfectionism with resilience and let data, not doubt, guide your next move.

If you’ve ever felt derailed by rejection or found yourself replaying criticism louder than encouragement, this episode is your reminder that one “no” doesn’t define your dream—it refines it. Tune in and rediscover the power of persistence, perspective, and progress over perfection.

They say the richest place on earth is the graveyard—where the unwritten books, unsung songs, and unstarted businesses are buried. In this episode of Thoughts of a Dreamer, I share a story that changed how I think about fear, timing, and taking action on my dreams.

During a flight back from Amsterdam, I met a music executive who turned a midnight idea into a next-day mission. No waiting. No overthinking. Just execution. That conversation made me realize how easily we confuse preparation with procrastination and how fear of failure disguises itself as “planning.”

We talk about why overthinking kills creativity, how to stop waiting for the “right time,” and what it really means to give your dreams oxygen before they fade. This is for the dreamer stuck in pause mode—the one sitting on ideas that could change everything if only they’d start.

If you dreamed it, you can do it. Don’t let your ideas die in your head—bring them to life while they still have breath.

In a world where algorithms dictate what we see and opinions flood every corner of the internet, authenticity can feel like an uphill battle.

In this episode of Thoughts of a Dreamer, I dig into what it costs when we trade our true voice for popularity, approval, or fleeting trends. I share my own story of bending to feedback, chasing what “works,” and burning out—only to realize that being authentic is the only way to build something real and lasting.

What you’ll hear:

  • Why your “one of one” uniqueness is irreplaceable
  • How chasing trends and public perception can erase your original vision
  • The difference between sustainable authenticity and quick wins
  • Why staying rooted in your own stripes creates the connection no algorithm can replicate

Because algorithms shift. Opinions change. But authenticity? That’s what keeps people coming back.

Remember, you’re one of one... and nobody can do it like you!

In this episode of Thoughts of a Dreamer: Out My Mind, Terri Nikki dives into one of the biggest dream-killers of all time: failure.

We’ve all been there—hesitating to post, launch, or pitch because of the shame and embarrassment tied to getting it wrong. But what if failure isn’t a dead end? What if every misstep is actually data, timing, refinement, or wisdom in disguise?

From childhood lessons that taught us to avoid the red “F,” to watching others push through “cringe” and leap ahead, Terri reframes failure as a necessary part of the dreamer’s journey. Using humor, storytelling, and a Scooby Doo-style analogy, she challenges us to unmask failure and see what’s really underneath.

This is your Failure Reframe Bootcamp—a reminder that success isn’t about perfect execution. It’s about becoming a successful failure, learning as you go, and refusing to let your dream die in your mind.

Hey Y'all! :) Terri here...

Are you stuck in your own head? Do the “voices in your head” keep telling you to wait, play it safe, or hold off until you feel ready? You’re not alone. In this episode of Thoughts of a Dreamer, Terri Nikki gets real about the mental mind games every dreamer faces when it’s time to stop dreaming and start doing.

We’ll break down what happens in your brain when you chase a dream: how the amygdala sets off alarm bells, why fear disguises itself as logic, and how your comfort zone tricks you into staying stuck. You’ll hear why confidence doesn’t come first—it’s built through action—and how micro-movements (the compound effect) help you outsmart overthinking and create evidence that fuels growth.

Whether you’re a creator second-guessing every post, an entrepreneur battling procrastination, or simply a dreamer who feels stuck, this episode will give you practical tools and mindset shifts to:

  • Recognize self-doubt and intrusive thoughts for what they are
  • Quiet the amygdala and engage your prefrontal cortex
  • Use small, consistent actions to build real confidence
  • Push past fear and step boldly out of your comfort zone

Stop letting your thoughts hold you back. These are just mind games, and once you see them for what they are, you can move forward with clarity, courage, and confidence.

I'll see y'all next week! Remember, keep moving. Consistency. Learning from myself here...

In this first episode of Thoughts of a Dreamer: Out My Mind, I’m unpacking what it means to shrink yourself mentally, emotionally, and energetically. If you’ve ever second-guessed your light, quieted your voice, or made yourself smaller to fit in… this one's for you.

This episode is real, raw, and mindset-first. We’re talking self-sabotage, overthinking, emotional shrinking, and the moment I finally decided to reclaim my space.

Because you weren’t born to be a whisper. You were born to echo.

Surprise surprise... :D Am I back? nah... but I'm here. I am transitioning and still getting used to this new new and I need time to adjust. However, I wanted to get this oldie out!

When creating part time, those juices are flowing! No pressure. All passion. When creating full time, you have to wrangle your ever allusive, ambiguous creativity on a deadline. Its completely different... and I didn't know. Creativity ebbs and flows... work with it or you'll be in a world of hurt.

Love y'all in real life.

Man... funemployment taught me a whole lot about myself... I just talk. I'm gonna do this... I'm gonna do that... I just create a whole scenario in my mind of a goal and tell people what I'm gonna do with the whole cocky assumption that I'm ACTUALLY gonna do it. tsk tsk tsk... I've NEVER done this before but I'm gonna do it now. yeah... no.

Instead of talking about it, be about it. START the thing you said you'd do and SEE if you even like it... see if it's something you COULD do. Don't set yourself up to fail before giving yourself a fair and ACCURATE shot at actually doing it!

I'm down today. :( I need to rest up a bit so I will post this rewind because it's one of my FAVORITES! I'm getting hit with a lot of inner critic voices lately and needed a re-up.

FROM EPISODE #63:
We all have an inner critic. We all have the voices that tell us we CAN'T and SHOULDN'T do. Those are judgments from our inner critc. If we aren't careful, those thoughts can keep us PARALYZED. Lets discuss what that inner critc does to a dream...

I love when I'm in the zone! There's nothing like feeling like you are knocking it out and being productive and the SMALLEST thing happens - THEN BOOM! Focus & momentum is GONE. GONE! Lost without a trace. Well, I'm realizing I gotta get this focus ALL the way together!

Take a listen.

You know what you feel, but you know what you need to do. Now, you feel like you have to fight between what you feel vs what you HAVE to do. Intuition and necessity goes hand in hand to me. I mean... we ignore our intuition. We ignore the small voice. We focus on what needs to be done now instead of trusting and leaning on what we intuitively feel. We sacrifice momentary happiness for long-term happiness (in theory)... when honestly, we get used to feeling average with spikes of happiness and feel that is just life. I refuse to live MY life that way.... but... you do you. :) respectfully.

This message is not for everyone. This is coming from the unicorn that is me. Just wanted to shake your thinking a bit... I dare you to think differently...

Welcome new listeners! :D yay! Little do y'all know, you've struck GOLD! Yes, GOLD! No, you will not get a check from me, but you will (hopefully) change your mind! Think about what you wanna do. Think about a goal. Think about a dream. Now, think of what it takes to do it... what do you FEEL?!?! Probably a lot of stuff. You may throw out an excuse. You may have convinced yourself you can't for WHATEVER reason... but, that's only because that thought has DIED within the ABYSS or grey area between your thought and your actions.

Think about it. Be open. Let's change your mind. Take control.

Listen... it's been a whole journey. I wish life didn't diminish and shift us from what we feel the most alive! Life has a tendency to drown out that small voice that tells us what WE need. Instead, we focus on what everyone else is doing and follow suit. Eventually, your soul will CRAVE what it needs. You won't be able to ignore it. What will you do then? You don't need ANYTHING to be what you need for success. You already have it in you... it's just not evolved yet. Take a listen.

Maybe later, I'll do [fill in the blank]. Look at you... procrastinating your little heart out. We gotta stop this. Your feelings won't change later. You'll still feel the feels of resistance now or later... why not do it now? Procrastination has its perks, but not too many...

You read that right. If you know you’re a procrastinator, have you ever asked the questions as to how or why? Do you know what you can do to kill or minimize procrastination? Well, take a listen!

Whew! Pivital moments have shifted me to look at time. Time is fleeting, so why are we so comfortable in thinking we have it? We don't know what kind of time we have. We have dreams and goals, but if we're always putting it off and procrastinating... we'll NEVER accomplish them. Just a discussion. Just something to make you think.

Let's think about this thing... how many of us will look at something and say... Nah. Nope. Not gone do it. Not wasting my time... Well, you're ACTUALLY not protecting yourself from rejection, you're self rejecting. Keep on saying no. Keep on! (I'm being sarcastic.) You get in this habit of saying no then you'll NEVER progress. You'll look up and see everyone else "doing better" than you and you have no idea why. Well... YOU KEEP SAYING NO! Stop it. Right now.

Betta check yourself before you wreck yourself. :D (Yes, I'm old and corny...)

This is kind of a two-fer. I wanted to only talk about one thing but... yeah... that didn't happen. I had a pivotal moment. It caused emotional damage. Things weren't the same. Now I see why I wasn't progressing. I was moving in a space of desperation. Maybe this has happened to you... take a listen.

It's one thing to hear it, but another to see it. Kanye's consistency is admirable. Kanye's vulnerablity is respectible. Kayne's consistency is unmatched. These were my 3 keys to finding that success you crave... Regardless of what you think of the person, I still suggest you watch this as a creative, visionary or dreamer... Perspective.

I had to check myself before I wrecked myself. Word. I haven't been 100% honest with you... let alone MYSELF! I pride myself on transparency but honestly, I've been running from an OLD dream myself. This dream is deep seeded. This dream keeps me up. This dream has been through some things. I ran away from it becuase of failure. Now is the time to pick it back up. I wasn't prepared for the ANXIETY that surrounded that old fear. Take a listen.

I'm disconnected. In order to RECONNECT, I need time. I need to ground. I need to find my spark again. In the meantime, listen to this rewind of episode 40: Intution and the Second Opinion. I LOVE this episode. Raw. One take.

I'll be back. Grounding...

We all have an inner critic. We all have the voices that tell us we CAN'T and SHOULDN'T do. Those are judgments from our inner critc. If we aren't careful, those thoughts can keep us PARALYZED. Lets discuss what that inner critc does to a dream...

Welcome to my class - Intentions 101. In this class, I discuss goals and why those bad boys don't stick and the key ingredient... INTENTION! I could talk about this for HOURS... DAYS... MONTHS even, but I'm condensing this as much as I can. If you don't remember anything, remember this...
Goals are set in the FUTURE... Intentions are set TUH-DAY! :)

Sheesh! #1. I'm sick with the flu. #2. My neighbors are moving and I can't avoid their noises. Apologies.

Now, when we envision something, we use our 5 senses. We have an overall sense of what this vision would feel like when it's executed. However, I quickly realized that my feelings were fabricated. When I actually saw everything I envisioned, it did NOT live up to the hype. I didn't feel remotely CLOSE to what I initially thought. It makes you second guess what you're doing and if it actually is the right thing. Instead of second guessing the dream, MAYBE we should second guess our expectation. When something doesn't live up to the hype or the expectation, question WHERE that expectation came from and WHY you feel that way. Where did this preconceived notion come from? How about this? Let it flow. Stop trying to control what it will feel like when you reach success and enjoy where the journey takes you. Be present.

New year, new you! Yes! On Monday, I'm going to start this diet. Next week, I'll work on that project. Next year, I'm really gonna focus on my dream! But why though?

The magnetic powers of a fresh start can put us in a state of illusion. Monday, next week, January 1st... is NO different than today. Its only the thought of a clean slate. Welp, maybe next year is just procrastination. Let's not do that. Let's discuss.

Ok... before you go on a rant... hear me out. When opportunities arise that we may not want to do, it doesn't necessarily mean we shouldn't do them. Nowadays, we LOVE to claim SELF CARE when it comes to those things we don't want to do and it's IMMEDIATELY justified. Thing is... you MAY be cheating yourselves out of a great growth opportunity by AVOIDING the emotions of "I don't wanna do this."

Yes, you should take care of yourself. You should be cognizant of your mental health. Yes, you should always prioritize your health... but don't CONFUSE self care for AVOIDING the things you NEED to do just because you don't want to. Rest when you need to. Sleep when you have to. Don't AVOID and call it self care. ... you're just scared. Lets keep it honest.

Stop it. When we create things in our mind and set ourselves on the end goal, we have a tendency to create IDOLS. You idolize dreams and make that dream your savior. You start to become OBSESSED! ...but obsessed with what? RESULTS. You spend all day looking at analytics, views, bank accounts, comments... for a SLIVER of HOPE! ... STOP IT! Watch yourself.

Take a listen.

I hated networking. I felt like I was begging people to "LOOK AT ME!!" Ugh. Networking was cringey for me... until I realized... it's just a conversation.

Being in DC this past week exposed me to some GREAT people where my less-than- premier networking skills helped me with some of those ambiguous gaps in my journey. I found access. I found community. I found a few resources. ..all thought TALKING and NETWORKING.

It definitely not what you know, but who you know. ...and I plan on using this to my advantage from here on. I may do a part two on this one...

I close my eyes and see streets paved in gold! There is no need to work for "the man," I'm living my life with no inhibition, and I'm financially stable. YES! But, these bills... yeah. They come once a month... FAITHFULLY. My dream hasn't matured yet. My dream hasn't made enough money to to take care of my current lifestyle. So, I gotta work.

Thing is... dreamers feel jobs are the DEBIL! You can't be successful with your dream if you divert your attention and energy in something other than your dream. You aren't SERIOUS about your dream if you aren't putting ALL your attention on it. ...and I GET IT...

HOWEVER... allow me to play devil's advocate...

You have bills. You have NO ONE ELSE to pay your bills. So, how do you sustain yourself? Dream chasing is acceptable in your twenties when your parents can still have you on their insurance. But, I'm an old 35 years.... mommy and daddy won't pay for my insurance - and I wouldn't even want them to (at this point).

I'm so conflicted. Your journey is unique to you. Just know, if you HAVE to work, you need to MENTALLY prepare for the DISCIPLINE needed NOT to allow your job to become your habit. Not allowing your job to become your Plan A - by not doing DAILY things toward your dream!

There's nothing wrong with chasing your dream and working at the same time... but check your mindset if you have to. if not, you'll be next in line to archive that dream... and aint nobody got time for that!

I missed my 50th?!?! Seriously? Well... I had to take a few minutes to recognize THAT great achievement, so bear with with me. When we start from scratch, it's literally a blank slate. We can be excited about it or irritated based on what you THINK you have to go through... AGAIN. Where do YOU land? How does starting from scratch make make you feel??

Intuitive moves are exciting! However, don't be fooled to believe that following your intuition doesn't promote opposition. Lets keep it real. it's best to look at this thing from ALL angles...

Take a listen and let me know what you're thinking of choosing...

...Think we need to talk through this some more... Why not a pros and cons list?

How many of you have started down a path and once you got into it, you realize it wasn't for you? You've invested so much time and energy. You've committed to this path. You have to see it through, or do you?

I just want you to question your desires. Question your path. Question your feelings of being stuck. Question WHY.

What if starting from scratch is what you NEED for your road to happiness?

I can't speak for everyone. I know that lately, I've felt off. When thinking about WHY and WHAT I needed to do to get... unstuck... I felt like I needed to start from scratch. Go left or right. Do what I know or take a risk and start over and chase desires. Whew!

Yes, I'm late. I couldn't get the message right, but I digress. Do you feel stuck? Do you feel off? Do you feel confused? I do. Sometimes, we make decisions that aren't for us in the moment. Instead of making it a temporary decision, we make the choice to MAKE IT WORK or FORCE IT. I'm just in my feelings...

Think about your day. Think about all you've done. Now, question... What have you done today that reflects your dream? Anything? If someone looks at your day, what would they assume about you?

Facts are NOT feelings. Stop it. It's so easy to get wrapped up in our feelings when... HONESTLY... they're just our reaction to a fact. That feeling can change, that fact won't. So, let's stop making decisions on FEELINGS...

I know it's hard, but take a beat. Peel back those layers. THEN make your decision... ON THE FACTS... not the feels.

It's not a hard question, but it is definitely something to make you think. Some of us are stuck in the rat race of everyday life that we've forgotten our happiness. It's conditional. It has an asterisk. Its elusive. We honestly don't know... well, happiness isn't as far off as you may think. Happiness is INTENTIONAL. Make that conscience effort to be happier. You will find YOU again!

How did you get... here? Simple answer... past decisions. More complex answer... your EMOTIONAL or INTUITIVE decisions. Your past decisions shape your present. Which decisions did you make, though? The GREAT thing? You can change. You can make better decisions TODAY for a better TOMORROW! :)

1st of all, I'm foolish! :D life is short... might as well have fun.

We live in this constant state of comfort. We love to feel comfortable at all times. Most of us have the need to stay in this state of comfort. Thing is, staying comfortable means you're not growing. Staying comfortable means you're not attempting your dream. Staying comfortable means you're placing limits on yourself. What is the SURE FIRE way to stay comfortable? You guessed it! Excuses. A good ol' excuse will allow you to ESCAPE the feeling of discomfort but... the more you walk toward an excuse, the further away you walk from your goal. 

Your choice.

One take. No edits. Let’s see how this goes… but, intuitive thoughts FUEL the dreamer only if you LISTEN and MOVE. In order to do so, you need familiarity. You need grounding. Meditation. Prayer. Faith OVER Fear. Has your gut EVER steered you wrong? Doubt it.

I had to learn quickly that what I said had SO much to do with how I moved in my dreamer's journey. I was so negative with my words! I had no idea. I can't blame anyone but myself.

Ain't nobody got time for that! Especially dream chasing... (blows raspberry)... sure. Tell yourself that. Lets keep it HONEST though. You don't have time because you don't want to "waste time" to fail at your dream. Right? As you get older, you have more "obligations" or choices you've collected which take up your time. However, you make time for what you want... so why aren't you making time for this dream?? Hmm... I referenced a few great resources and wanted to share the wealth!

I have to be honest. I've given in to the feelings of comfort. Who doesn't want to be comfortable? Who doesn't want to feel like they're in control? So, take the easy route... But every action has a reaction and the reaction to comfort is stagnancy... or archived dreams... unattainable dreams.
