We often know exactly what needs to be done but for various reasons find ways to try and get around doing it. But eventually we find ourselves back where we started knowing that all we need to do is take the first step. It might feel like the most terrifying the world. You might end … Continue reading Taking the first step

Consistency, commitment and a lack of heart
There's a line from an oasis song that goes 'you can't get a life if your hearts not in it'' It's funny how a moody 90s band can just totally get you. I've been thinking about how sometimes it's easy to create things from a place of heart and feeling but other days not so … Continue reading Consistency, commitment and a lack of heart
Old favourites
We all have them. Cosy socks, worn out joggers and a stripy fleece (or maybe that's just me). I find that most people go back to old favourites be it an outfit combination, shoes, a book, movie, tv show, hairstyle, nail colour, a person or a place. We do it because as people we are … Continue reading Old favourites
Where I go
I feel like anyone that blogs daily has this mental space that they go to when they're writing. For me I tap into my inner monologue. It's always running and so I simply stop and pay attention to it for long enough to write a hundred words or so. For the most part it's easy … Continue reading Where I go
Does equal contribution matter?
When it comes to working on a project or task as a group, is it more important that each member contributes equally or that everyone plays to their strengths. Initially I thought that it was necessary for everyone to contribute equally but then I got thinking more about the individual.

Settlers and explorers
Some people choose to settle because they want a life of comfort, stability and familiarity. Or maybe it's that they've figured out what they want from life or what they want to pursue. Some people choose to explore because they have trust in the part of them that is curious to experience more in life … Continue reading Settlers and explorers
I’ll do it tomorrow
But you've been saying that for the past few weeks now. Tomorrow often seems more convenient or maybe you just hope you'll be more in the mood to get it done. That's how hours or days turn into weeks, we hold this belief that we should wait until we're in the mood but you may … Continue reading I’ll do it tomorrow
Is a 9-5 enough?
In an age where we can create our own platforms and put our voices out there I often ask myself if I should be doing more. Granted I have 2 blogs alongside working full-time and studying part-time but writing on my blog is something that is so safe and familiar to me that I wonder … Continue reading Is a 9-5 enough?
Do nothing
Maybe what you need is to go back to simplicity to sitting down on the sofa with a cosy fleece jacket on and your favourite music playing as you do nothing. In this day and age it's almost become uncomfortable to do nothing which is why so often when we take a break from our … Continue reading Do nothing
Do you remember 4 years ago?
I recently bumped into someone that I hadn't seen in 4 years. Sure we follow each other on social media but we don't interact with each other much. So what was so amazing is that things fell right into place as though no time had passed, in the best possible way. This person even brought … Continue reading Do you remember 4 years ago?
