A Wise Mind Doesn't Conform, It Creates
WiseMindMovement.com

There are conformist that were once dreamers; they most likely end up harboring regrets. The difference between a wise mind and a conformist is that a wise mind knows better. A wise mind is a dreamer that dreams then executes. A conformist just dreams. In order to acquire a life of contentment you must create it. There’s power in your self-fulfilling prophecy. Wise minds are aware that speaking prosperity into existence is important; they know to maintain an abundance of faith even through trials and tribulations. Conformists makes the choice of staying at a job they hate. Conformists allow themselves to be oppressed by fear.

Meet Jose Kercado, Jr, founder of the Wise Mind Movement established June 11th, 2014. “I wanted to create something to put smiles on not only the average person’s face, but those that are also less fortunate,” Jose says, speaking of his purpose for starting the brand. “I got so tired of negative mindsets and seeing unhappy things.”

The ones who deserve the most support are the genuine souls that are seeking to add value to the world; Jose is an exquisite representation of this. In all honesty, this brand is a necessity to society. Remember when I mentioned that conformists choose to stay at a job even when they’re miserable in that particular environment? Well, when Jose was asked what keeps him encouraged to continue pursuing his passion, he stated “I believe in finding happiness in life and not being forced to work somewhere you don't like.” I couldn’t agree more. Jose is actually the definition of a wise mind; he doesn’t just speak on the importance of chasing a dream, he demonstrates it.

I find it impossible not to be inspired by such an ambitious individual who constantly promotes positivity and selflessness. Jose doesn't brag about all of the prodigious deeds he has done, so I will do that for him. I believe people like him need to be placed in the spotlight more often. Though he may face hurdles on his road to success, his determination finds a way to maneuver through them. Jose mentioned his mom as one of the factors that keeps him going: “My mother, she needs me now more than ever, It’s only right that I fight these obstacles to better her living.” I have no doubt he will accomplish that.

On Monday, May 2, 2016, Jose announced the brand’s first pop-up shop. The Wise Mind Movement pop-up shop will take place on June 15th, 2016 in Los Angeles, California. I encourage everyone to show the support he undoubtedly deserves.

Jose defies odds, he doesn’t conform. Be like Jose and remember to stay wise.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
