Figure out what you need

Through periods of overwhelm it's easy to feel lost and stuck. When there are 101 problems finding a solution can be challenging. Often, the best place to start is by figuring out what you need in the moment. Finish the sentence: When I feel anxious in a crowded place, I need... Perhaps you're in a … Continue reading Figure out what you need →

Unwanted offerings

Just becuase someone is offering something , doesnt mean you need to take it. It can happen one of two ways The first is someone extends an offering, you say no thank and continue to decline even if they keep pushing. The second option is you accept the offering because you don't want the other … Continue reading Unwanted offerings →

How they used to be

The way that things are right now, probably isn't how they used to be. I think it's important to acknowledge when things have changed. Something that was good 2 years ago might not be so good anymore. And so there is not much use to clinging on to the way that things were because they … Continue reading How they used to be →

Letting things pile up

Little problems can suddenly become big problems. It is so important to address things in the moment instead of brushing them off, waiting or saying nothing. When you do this you'll find that days, weeks or even months later you're bringing stuff up that were (according to the other person) not an issue when they … Continue reading Letting things pile up →

I wrote this for you

You know the feeling you get when you read something that resonates. You feel seen, you feel heard and you feel connected, often to a complete stranger. But this person was able to form something that encapsulates a feeling or a moment from your life. It can often serve as a reminder that we're not … Continue reading I wrote this for you →

What can you do right now?

We often put things off, telling ourselves that later will always be an option. But we ignore the fact that life is finite. That perhaps starting today will be the only chance you get to finish what it is you wanted to do. Your work is important, it matters. Don't focus so much on how … Continue reading What can you do right now? →

Good in the long run

There will always be things that you need to do but don't necessarily enjoy. Often it's these kinds of things that are good in the long run but in the moment, in the short run you'd rather not bother. If it's in a work environment you'll most likely get it done because you have have … Continue reading Good in the long run →

The perfect words

There are some cases when, if you don't know what to say the best thing to say is nothing at all. But that doesn't apply to every situation. In fact, in some scenarios saying nothing is one of the worst things that you can do. Sometimes we hold off from speaking up because we think … Continue reading The perfect words →

Time to jump

It's easy to put things off and get caught up in analysing every possible outcome. You might find yourself visualising the path you're considering, hoping for a sign that the time to do it is now. Or maybe you go online and do some research hoping to find a story that resonates from someone that … Continue reading Time to jump →

The best possible next step

Sometimes it's good to have a statement that serves as guidance for the direction of your life. When you feel stuck, stagnant and discontent wondering what to do next pick the best possible next step. Close your eyes and ask yourself 'What is the best possible next step I can take?' Whatever answer comes up, … Continue reading The best possible next step →

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.
