Development tools for a better you
As many of our blog posts are, this post was inspired by another blogger’s article I found on TinyBuddha.com. As someone who has an interest in fitness, I’ve noticed that there are so many ways for people to achieve their fitness goals.

It is very easy to get distracted from the “here and now“. What with deadlines, future assignments, goals we want to hit, and plans we can’t wait to make, is there really any time TO be present?

Inevitably, there are going to be moments in life where we feel defeated. Sometimes things just don’t go the way we imagined, regardless of how much effort and pre-planning we put into our ideal outcome.
