One of the easiest ways to identify if you have an issue with perfectionism in some way, shape or form is to look at how you react to when you make mistakes (or what feels like a mistake). How easily are you able to move on from the moment? How do you feel about or … Continue reading The fear of getting things wrong

It doesn’t have to last forever
Some of the resistance to starting something new is the fear that it won't work out. Yet, you'll never have the chance to see your idea flourish unless you're willing to give it go. In order to do this you have to shift your mindset to one where your intention is simply to bring a … Continue reading It doesn’t have to last forever
5 things to do instead of blogging
For the past year or so I've been thinking about other ways that I can create and share it with people outside of blogging. As someone that has been blogging for over a decade across various sites, I often think about the alternatives. What would would I do if I didn't blog?

How to tell if it’s working?
When you start implementing things like therapy, meditation, journaling, EFT, personal growth, personal development, reading self help books or whatever else it might be, you'll get to a point where you're asking yourself if it's working and maybe if it ever will work. You might find yourself questioning whether dedicating, time, energy and money to … Continue reading How to tell if it’s working?

It probably won't make you enough to earn a living but you can make … Continue reading Money for nothing*
Easy conversations only
When we avoid having conversations that we consider to be hard, difficult or challenging we are also saying that we're only committed to easy conversations. You then find yourself in situations where you're avoiding saying what you really think or how you really feel because you want to keep things easy. However, this just leads … Continue reading Easy conversations only
The feeling not the thing
Whilst thinking about the idea of missing out on certain aspects of life, an interesting thought came to me. What if it's the feeling we missed out on, not the thing itself. Think about how 2 people can do something totally different but it brings up the same feeling. Or about how you can do … Continue reading The feeling not the thing
