Music, art, landscape - these are all things I draw inspiration from.

For my mind, I try to reduce stress by finding quiet time and meditating.

Music is very transporting. I'll hear a song for the first time and I rarely listen to the lyrics. I picture that song playing as a soundtrack to a movie, or even just in the background of someone's life. This all sounds weird, but I have an active imagination, and music opens the floodgates of that area of my brain.

I stand in my own way on a daily basis. I don't know if this is something I will ever overcome completely, and I'm oddly okay with that.

I'm okay with standing in my way and in turn allowing it to impede my progress, but I'm okay with the struggle of overcoming obstacles despite myself.

I like to be surprised by life.

It's human nature to work on ourselves, to get better in mind, body, and spirit, so there's nothing wrong with trying to live life to your fullest potential.
