Author Jason Jack on 'Accomplishing Goals'
Author Jason Jack, how can I accomplish my goals?-
A lot of people in this world have a hard time figuring out what they want to do with their lives (a topic for another day), and when they do, they tend to have an even harder time figuring out how to accomplish their goal. This may or may not be you, but perhaps you know a person or two who you could consider a "life long soul searcher".
I would like to present a question to help those continually searching, and the hopefully lost, on their pa...

You Gotta Learn Something! 5 Things To Share
Author Jason Jack here with 5 things I wanted to share with you this week!
1. Tomorrow really is a new day
I was thinking about how to be even more excited about the next day coming, and it hit me while I was watching a YouTube show: just think of tomorrow as a day with yet fulfilled promises. Tomorrow could be the day you succeed at the important goals in your life, make a new friend, be randomly selected to win a million bucks. Tomorrow is a chance to be and do better. And because what happen...

Author Jason Jack on the "Importance of Positivity'
Author Jason Jack, what do you think about keeping a positive outlook?-
For new and old readers of my blog, I'm all about striving to keep a positive mindset. And with each new post, I try to keep that positivity going.
Thus, I believe remaining upbeat makes life so much easier!
Really, now, there is so much negativity in the world. People complaining, berating, judging, name calling, badgering, insulting . . . . the list of negative things we read in out news headlines and in our daily lives is...

You Gotta Learn Something! (4 Things to Share This Week!)
Author Jason Jack here, interneters, with 4 things I wanted to share that I've experienced this week! Because, you gotta learn something!
1.Spend time with Nostalgia
It feels good to return to the activities, television shows, games, or other activities that put smiles on our faces from back in the day (or when we were younger--search YouTube for old commercials, music videos, and television show intros). When you're working for the future, don't forget to spend time with the past. You'll...

Author Jason Jack on 'Fear'
Author Jason Jack, what do you think about 'fear'?-
Fear is a choice.
If you take anything away from watching Will and Jaden Smith's sci-fic epic, After Earth, it is this.
But is it true? To some extent, I'd say yes. Fear often feels like a reaction, an uncontrollable response to an outside stimuli as opposed to a conscious decision to be afraid. For example, you see a dog. The dog starts barking, growling, then runs at you. You are afraid not by choice but because the situation demands it from...

You Gotta Learn Something! (6 Things To Share+Longest Hashtag Ever!)
Yo, interneters! Author Jason Jack here, and I want to share with you 6 important things in my life from this past week! You gotta learn something, right? ;)-
1. Always keep your vision intact!
You will have trouble finishing a project if it doesn't resemble your initial vision. Take reviews and critiques into account, but do not let them sway you from your vision. Or, risk DOOM! ;)
2. Take time (off) for yourself. A.K.A, permission to "couch potato"
All work and no play? If you work hard, then y...

Author Jason Jack on 'Critiques'
Author Jason Jack, what do you think about 'Critiques'?-
The job of a critic/reviewer is to inform potential consumers the value of a particular piece of content and do so in an unbiased manner.
In an ideal world, this would work. But, it's sad to see so many reviewers with agendas.
Some see themselves as "professionals" and by definition, review harder in order to show off their "skills".Others will review content not for what it is, but what they want it to be (for example, reviewing an action...

1. Do want YOU think is fun.
As long as you aren't affecting another person, violating any laws, without harming yourself and respecting you and this world around you (phew!) have fun with your life. Life is long but it can also end short. We might as well spend the available time we have on things we love to do (just...
