I am a writer, working on non-fiction books helping people harness their creativity and discover their full potential. Several years ago, I went through a goal exercise for 6 months. Many times a week, I spent an hour or more writing out what I wanted my life to look like in 5 years, 1 year, and 6 months. Authoring several self published books was the single highest goal repeated more than 20 times. I am writing because I refuse to give up on my dreams, or simply sit back waiting for them to happen.

What do I have worth sharing?

When I was 6 years old, I was diagnosed with ADHD and slight Dyslexia. Did that stop me? Is my ability fixed, or can it grow? After 8 years in college, I finally graduated with my bachelors degree, while learning valuable techniques and strategies to focus my creative brain. The doctors diagnosis did not stop me! Thanks to neroplacticity and the brain's ability to literally rewire itself, our capacity is not fixed, but is limited by our willingness to grow and learn.

Is it possible to change the way our minds work? Can we increase our ability to focus, or even harness creativity? I have been pushing into those questions most of my life, reading countless books, trying out new techniques, and talking to other creative people in my pursuit for answers.
