Bad Days Don't Exist.
15/02/2019 Duration: 04minBad days are something you create. We allow insignificant negative things and energy spill over to the rest of our day by labelling it a "bad day". This is simply a waste of one of our most valuable resources, time. Don't allow anything negative to have more power than it needs to. You dictate how you respond to things, so don't let anything be all consuming. No bad days. It's your decision, so stop making excuses and radiate positivity.

Own Your Sh*t.
09/11/2018 Duration: 05minMost of us have an idea of what we want to do or would like to do. We know where our passions are and what we would do as a career given the choice. But we rarely voice these dreams. We do not own them, making it harder to garner support and more difficult to get off the ground. Even those who do start, failure to truly own what you do is limiting your ability to be successful and fully commit to chasing your dreams. Own what you want, regardless of how crazy. And, own what you do, regardless of how small. Nothing is too crazy, but you can't expect to receive something you don't ask for and truly own.My YouTube Channel: youtube.com/benjaminhaydenleavittMy Instagram: @benjaminhaydenleavittMy Twitter: @b_snizz

Failing is not Failure.
28/09/2018 Duration: 04minFailing is looked at in the wrong way in my opinion. Every failure is validated learning, something so incredibly valuable. You should seek out opportunities to try new things, keep failing and keep learning. Every failure is ultimately making you a more well rounded individual, so go fail and do it as often as you can. Soon enough the failures will be overshadowed by the big wins. My YouTube: youtube.com/benjaminhaydenleavittMy Instagram: @benjaminhaydenleavittMy Twitter: @b_snizz
