A necessary break

Currently working on and through lots of different things in my life. I've allowed myself to take space from blogging in order to ensure that I'm not posting about things that are fresh and problems that I'm yet to solve. A current theme for me is acceptance and I feel very lucky that my life … Continue reading A necessary break →

Hard to break

When you've been doing something for a long time whether it's beneficial to your life or not, it can be difficult to just let it go. Even if you know it's not good for you, … Continue reading Hard to break →

Entertaining and addictive

The thing about social media is that it's great when you're on it. It's entertaining, it's addictive. It's so much of those things that I find myself thinking, I'll feel like I'm missing out if I take a break.

Breaks and streaks

Taking breaks will always be necessary. However, when you commit to doing something every single day, suddenly taking a break becomes a little more difficult. As much as you can try and make up for it the day before or the day after, it's not quite the same as maintaining consistency. Once you've stuck with … Continue reading Breaks and streaks →

I work better when I’m busy

Often when we’re busy we’re overwhelmed and stressed. We find ourselves only hoping and wishing for things to slow down. We tell ourselves when I’m not so busy I’ll have more time for x, y and z. And we believe it too. But I often find that the busier I am the better I am … Continue reading I work better when I’m busy →

Work break

A sign that you might be in the wrong job is how you feel when you take time off. Is the work break like an escape from your dreary everyday reality that you dread going back to.

What I love about writing on thedailygemm is that I can look back and remember the inspiration behind certain posts. Sometimes writing is just a way for me to work through a difficult situation, instead of getting caught up in the moment, I put the focus on finding a solution or looking at things from a different perspective. Haven't been writing on this blog lately. Instead I've been going to a weekly writing class and working on articles for something new. I love it when my most popular posts are also some of my personal favourites. September 2022 August 2022 July 2022 I that I'm able to write things that will be helpful to read months or even years later. Top posts from May last year. When I write from personal experience and it resonates, I always think, this is for us. It's for me being able to express myself and something that you can relate to.
