Most of us have things that we want to achieve in this life and some of us are willing to work extremely hard for what we want. We'll sacrifice a lot of things and even go through periods or excessive stress or discomfort in order to reach the light at the end of the tunnel. … Continue reading The path of most resistance

Call yourself out
Maybe you've been slacking with your time and attention lately. Cancelling plans, showing up late, knowingly giving the minimum effort required. But it's in such a way, almost a subtle way that it's not enough for anyone to call you out. So, instead of waiting for someone else to do it, call yourself out. Maybe … Continue reading Call yourself out
Even if it all falls apart
I hold the belief that even if it all falls apart, everything will always be okay. Which means that I often don't give things as much effort as I could or should because I'm aware that everything will be okay, no matter the outcome. When we take advantage of our circumstances life has this way … Continue reading Even if it all falls apart
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
Getting started
Sometimes I get so overwhelmed by all the things that I could be doing that I just don’t’t know where to start. And so I do nothing and then get frustrated at the time I’ve wasted. It’s not what I would call laziness because I’m often fine once I get started. Instead, it’s this feeling of ‘Where do … Continue reading Getting started

But sometimes it's more than that. Maybe the truth is that this difficult thing will force … Continue reading Giving up
When things don’t go to plan
It's impossible to be prepared for every possible life circumstance that can arise. We don't plan for people being unwell, long'term unemployment, falling into a depression, someone stealing your bag etc. But the more I experience different aspects of life I'm learning to be okay with things that happen. I remember years ago writing the … Continue reading When things don’t go to plan
Molly my-way
I once new someone who's infamous line was 'But why?'. It made for a difficult relationship when you were questioned every time you said no. It would go something like can you (insert favour here)? I'd reply no, then be hit with but why, I'd say I don't want to and be hit with but … Continue reading Molly my-way
No breaks allowed
I'm only in the third month of blogging daily and I've had days where I find myself wondering how long I'll continue with it. I've had days where I'm too consumed in other life stuff to really give my all to the post I share that day. If this was anything else I'd have probably … Continue reading No breaks allowed
Less Seth, More me
I first came across Seths blog around 5 years ago and I remember thinking that I'd never be able to daily blog. It amazed me that he was able to not only have something to post daily but something good. I'd read his posts and be inspired or find myself reflecting on aspects of my … Continue reading Less Seth, More me
