I’ve taken a hiatus from writing here, and I’ve let this site slowly slip away into the background of priority for me. I wanted to take some time to re-strategize and re-focus my efforts while also allowing my existing pieces their respective opportunities to breathe. The messages in anything I’ve ever written about here areContinue reading “Room 814”

With the constant influx of new information and intimidating statistics, I hope you’ve also found ways to free your mind and enjoy life.

God Wins (Part II)
After a three-month hiatus, I’m finally back to sitting down and working on a new piece. Almost exactly a year ago, I collected some thoughts about dealing with the stressors and uncertainties of change in ‘God Wins’: https://thesuper8.blog/2020/11/04/god-wins/ In a majority of my posts since, I’ve worked through the concepts of faith and mental health,Continue reading “God Wins (Part II)”
Numbers Game
Athletes are weird people. Many find motivation in the smallest things… whether it be something someone told them seven years ago, an opponent, a recent game, superstitions, and so on. For a good handful of athletes, their number means a lot to them. Some don’t care, and just take what they’re assigned… but others willContinue reading “Numbers Game”
Fortitude
The courage in the face of adversity. That’s what fortitude is, and before I personally dive into it, you deserve credit for exhibiting it, too. This past 15 months has been nothing but consistent physical and mental adversity for most of us, and now as we start to enter the clear, don’t be afraid toContinue reading “Fortitude”
Seeing is Knowing
In my last post I briefly talked about the idea of belief. Belief and faith go hand in hand, and I really harped on the positive side of belief, the side that makes you trust the process of life. The side that gives you hope. But, there is a side to belief that contributes toContinue reading “Seeing is Knowing”
Best Belief
It’s great to have the opportunity to be back and writing again. It has been a month and some change since my last post, because since then a lot of life has happened. I’ve always said I’d never force posts if they didn’t feel right, or if they weren’t genuinely applicable to my life. I’veContinue reading “Best Belief”
What’s Your Why?
Today’s post is essentially a ‘year in review.’ I started this site just over a year ago, in the second week of January for a multitude of reasons, but mainly for myself. I realized through having conversations and meeting new people that I had been blessed with many experiences, stories, and ideas that were versatileContinue reading “What’s Your Why?”
365 Opportunities
Happy New Year to you and yours. This is the prime time for a post because everyone is sitting around today trying to brainstorm resolutions… but I always wonder why it takes a new year for change and growth to be inspired. New Years is always a bittersweet night for me. Obviously, there’s the refreshingContinue reading “365 Opportunities”
Inner Star
It’s been a long handful of weeks for me. Between finals week, the holiday season, catching up with people, doing podcast interviews, and training, I’m glad that I’ve finally found the time to convey a new message. This is one that I’ve chewed on for a while because I came up with it in myContinue reading “Inner Star”
