Taking the Reins: Learning to Create Your Own Direction

Posted by Tara May | Nov 20, 2014 | You Are Stronger Than You Think You Are | 2 |

Making the transition from employed to self-employed can be a tricky maneuver. More than all the technical aspects you have to learn, like time management and taxes, it’s learning the skill of self-motivation that can be the most difficult—and the most rewarding. I worked in the corporate world for a long time. In fact, all of my working years between 18 and 32 were spent sitting in some sort of office chair. I learned early on how to take direction—not only how to take it, but that it was good to keep my head down, follow instructions, and do...

All in Good Time: Exploring Passion

Posted by Tara May | Nov 10, 2014 | Find Your Passion | 0 |

“People basically become runners because they’re meant to.” I read this quote by Haruki Murakami in his book, What I Talk About When I Talk About Running, and I got to thinking about passion. In particular, I got to thinking about how our passions can define us and how we don’t always know what we’re meant to do. Sometimes our passions sneak up on us.

A Few Grey Hairs: Coming to Terms With Known Change

Posted by Tara May | Nov 6, 2014 | Change Happens | 2 |

We often talk about changes that are known and changes that are unknown. We should be better equipped to deal with the changes that are known, right? At least, that is the goal, and in so doing, we become better equipped to deal with the unknown changes that inevitably come our way. Well, tonight I found a grey hair. And not just one of those half grey hairs, where the better part of the strand matches my customary light brown before it fades to grey, but a full-on grey hair—white, really. It was white all the way from root...

Life After Death: Gaining Perspective

Posted by Tara May | Oct 27, 2014 | Fear Happens | 2 |

What does death teach us about life? Some people are never prompted to contemplate this question. Maybe they’re blessed with perfect health, a natural resistance to accidents, or a whole lot of luck. Whatever the reason, they are happy to carry on in their routine, unhindered by their own mortality. Most of us are not so fortunate, though, and we eventually come face-to-face with our own death or the death of someone we love. And we can’t help but be changed by it. We can no longer carry on as before, trusting in a secure future, possessing only a...

Simple Green Courage: Jadah Sellner on Dreaming

Posted by Tara May | Oct 23, 2014 | Fear Happens, Find Your Passion | 0 |

Jadah Sellner is the successful and multi-faceted entrepreneur and co-founder of Simple Green Smoothies, and the woman I introduced to you in "From Dreaming to Doing,” but she is also so much more. Though she identifies more with the dreamer, Jadah is a dreamer AND a doer. She found success by closing the divide between thinking and taking action. Now she wants the rest of us to know that we can do the same. More than anything, Jadah’s message is to say your dreams out loud, and then take imperfect action toward your dreams. Remember what it was to dream like a...
