About two years ago, I challenged myself to go Vegan. Now, before you say, “oh here we go again, dude saw one documentary and now he’s a vegan vigilante here to save the world”, ha wrong guy! Not knowing how long I would adopt this lifestyle, I managed to go Vegan for three months. Since then I have completely remove beef and pork from my diet. However, little did I know this challenge would embark me on a spiritual pilgrimage, on a quest to search for a purpose. In other words I asked myself the question of all questions; “What are you doing with your life?” After months of pondering, I realized nothing was going appear out-of-thin air saying, Hello, I’m your purpose... Rather, I simply just had to be more PURPOSEFUL with every aspect of my life.
“Sigh” - Yup, easier said, than done! Listen, the simplest of behavioral changes can bring a paradigm shift to your perspectives. You See - the question; “What are you doing with your life?” Can take you on a whirlwind, looking for some type of grandiose answer that has to align with what we think is our purpose.
To be more purposeful with every aspect of my life, all there was to do is - LIVE. So I acquire a state of mind as my “North Star” to truly guide me.
Knowing I was not alone in my thinking and there were others with this same thought, H.A.P.I. Hood was created to be a living state of mind that embodies the values of -
