Unpopular Opinion: Not Having a Passion is OK
Have you found your passion in life? No? NO? Follow you passion! Do what you love and you’ll never work a day in your life! Guess what? You probably won’t find your passion. Chances are, you might not even have the world’s definition of a “passion”.

Improving Yourself at Work and in Your Personal Life
Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen. I am a United States Marine on his lunch break and thought I would share some tips and advice I've picked up during my life. I see a lot of brand new marines, "Boots," as we call them come to the motor pool each week. They tend to do one of two things, neither of which is helpful to anyone. They either run and hide trying not to be noticed; in which case they come back the next day able to contribute nothing more than the day before; or they continuously get in the way of someone trying to do their job. There is healthy in between, however, it seems to be hard for the average person to grasp. Here's a few tips to not only be a better help but to make your day goes as smoothly as possible with the minimum amount of ass-chewings.

Navigating Young Adulthood with No Parental Guidance
When you're a kid, the phrase "Mother knows best" usually means that you have to do something that your mother wants you to do or not do something that your mother thinks you shouldn't be doing. While when you're young, "Mother knows best" usually means you just lost a fight, this phrase can bring immense comfort and relief to those same kids when they begin the journey into young adulthood. Many of my friends also in their early 20s use their parents as a lifeline for what to do for a job interview, when you go to the doctor by yourself, how to not turn all of your clothes pink in the washer, easy recipes to make, and some even see their parents as a 24-hour-ATM. BUT, if you're reading this, I'm sure you know that we are not all blessed with loving, supportive parents that show you how to adult. That's why I've put together some tips and resources that I've found helpful for learning how to navigate young adulthood with no parental guidance. I hope that this helps someone through this very difficult transition, and even though it isn't the traditional way to grow up, you're not alone, and you can still accomplish all of your goals while creating a life that you enjoy living.

The podcast is a relatively new phenomenon that allows us to digest information while on the move. Whether related to music, sports, lifestyle, and the like, we just plug-in, switch on and get going.

Want to know three podcasts that fit this mould? Of course you do.

Difficult, Not Impossible
Being young in today's world is difficult. As a millennial, my opinion might be biased, but I stand by it. There are so many things we could do, so many things to see, and so many decisions to be made. I fully understand that before the creation of advanced technology and social media, life was also difficult. Wars were being fought and women were pressured to be stay-at-home mothers and/or wives, I get it. But the thing is, they all knew what they were going to do, they had a path set for them. It was simpler.

3 Reasons Why the Critics in Our Lives Never Succeed
There once was a boy who had a great difficulty in speaking and reading. He was dyslexic, and due to his mental illness, his teachers became some of his biggest critics. One even went so far as to tell the kid’s own father that, “No matter what he does, he will never amount to anything.”

Create Success
Mother Teresa says, “God doesn’t require us to succeed, he only requires that you try...God has not called me to be successful. He called me to be faithful.” In my life, I always believed that effort outweighs performance, time will reflect all the work you put into something — it just won’t show right away, what matters is the integrity you put into it, the commitment.

Growth
I’ve been through a change as of late, in my mind, body, and soul. Over the past month or so I’ve seen a tremendous change in myself. I am comfortable in my own skin, I’m comfortable making decisions and doing things on my own. Before I felt as if I was just floating through life and now I’m really living, feeling every single moment.

I know you may say it is easy said than done so I will give you some examples. If you choose to watch this video I will talk about several reasons. I will use myself as an example. In 2006 started out at almost 300 pounds. I decided to lose weight I my goal was to get to 250 pounds. It seemed like nothing when I was talking to people, and maybe that was their way of trying to get me mentally ready for what was to come. As I engaged into this endeavor I learned that my calorie count played a very important part in me losing weight.
