Living life with someone who lives life to the fullest is the best way to live, and it is easier to live life to the fullest when you have the wealth to do it.

starting from scratch written by: akua hinds june 23, 2023
Having a blank canvas at the very beginning of starting an art project can feel a little bit daunting at first. After all, the possibilities are endless and we don’t always know where to start, how to start, or where things are going to end up. None of us likes to fail, and we certainly don’t want to be disappointed with our work. However, instead of feeling intimidated by a blank canvas, it is important that we feel excited about having a blank slate.

Written by: Akua Hinds
July 20 to 22, 2022
When you cannot find the opportunity to travel on an exotic out of town trip, a local day trip destination can be the next best thing. Last week, I went to Niagara-On-The-Lake to visit my friend Kathryn who lives there and was having an extra birthday party event (extra because her birthday was two months ago, but she decided to have additional celebrations). A day trip does not require as much preparation and planning as an out of town trip, but it still requires some planning.

My Love Affair with Entrepreneurship
Written by: Akua Hinds
November 24, 2021
A few weeks ago, I traveled to Florida to visit friends who had recently moved there, and I had a wonderful time being in the Sunshine State. It had been a few years since I had last been in Florida, and it had been two and half years since I had last traveled via airplane. I had missed being in the skies and staring at cloud formations up-close. I had been to Disney World years ago, and I was excited about going back. I’ve been fascinated by the Walt Disney World company for a long time, and I doubt that my fascination with the business will ever wane.

Do you ever wish that you could turn back the clock and strategically and deftly arrange your life’s moments and movements as if you were moving chess pieces on a chess board? If so, I can totally relate. I have come to realize that the saying that “nothing changes if nothing changes” is really true. Nothing changes if I focus on staying angry about the past. Nothing changes if I fail to realize that my past experiences can be used as learning lessons about what to do and what not to do in the future.

Answering the Call on Your Life
Written by: Akua Hinds
October 28, 2020
There is a call on your life that only you can respond to. No one else can do it for you; it has to be fulfilled by you. There are people who have been where you are and who have done what you want to do. But similar to eating, no one can eat for you because in order to flourish, you must eat your own food. Someone else can make the food for you, but they cannot eat it for you because when they do eat food they are eating for themselves. The call over your life is one that you must answer in order for you to fulfill your destiny.

Have you ever ended a relationship and felt absolutely cheated by the way things ended? If you have, you are not alone. One of the worst types of emotions to experience is the feeling of betrayal.

The leaderboard is a tracker, and you know what they say; a tracked number or goal grows. If you have ever watched the hit show Dancing with the Stars, you are familiar with what a leaderboard is. The leaderboard is the visual display board that lists the scores of everyone who is in the competition, and everyone looks to the leaderboard for information about where they are, where they want to be, and who they need to beat in order to get to where they want to be. Here is why being driven and having a longing to be on the leaderboard can help you to live the life that you deserve to live.

Giving Your Position Away
Written by: Akua Hinds
August 18, 2020
We all possess it; that inner voice that tells you to go right, or to go left. Or, perhaps you are advised to stay right where you are and wait to see what happens. It steers you in the right direction, and it rarely lets you down. No, it isn’t a GPS, it’s your intuition. The mind is a powerful part of your body, and it is capable of communicating all of the things that you need to know about the next life step that you are about to take.

six great life lessons learned through self-employment written by: akua hinds march 30, 2020
There are so many lessons to learn each day, and I have found that self-employment has taught me more than I ever thought possible. Being self-employed means that you are pursuing a leadership position in your life. Working for an employer is perfectly fine for many people, but for others, working as an employee is not the path they want to pursue. It takes a person with a certain type of tenacity and vision to pursue entrepreneurship. Read more

THE IMPACT OF ARTISTIC EXPRESSIONS

OCTOBER 10, 2019
You are never too young or too old to pick up a paint brush and start creating a masterpiece! For the past few years, I have been curious about what seems to me to be a growing trend; paint nite sessions. I had seen other people in my local community attending Paint Nite events while I was dining at restaurants and bars where the Paint Nites were being held, and I found it fascinating how people could create brand new pieces of art from scratch within a few hours. Could I really do the same? Was it possible for me to unleash my inner visual artist and create something worthy of hanging on my wall with only a few hours of guidance?
