How many times has this tweet been viewed?

Today I went on Twitter and saw a graph and number on the left hand side of each tweet indicating how many times it had been viewed. My first thought was if there was a way to turn it off. It doesn't benefit me to see how many times a tweet has been viewed. It's … Continue reading How many times has this tweet been viewed? →

Dreams change

What you want doesnt have to stay the same. Sometimes when we've been set on something for so long, even after we realise we something else we stick with the old plan. This is because it feels risky to change and we put so much pressure on ourselves to have things worked out. The result … Continue reading Dreams change →

Old ways

It might seem that right now there is little that you can do but revert to your old ways. If you've learnt self observation then perhaps you're used to your patterns of behaviour. Perhaps you can clearly map out and identify your old ways. And if you can do that then you can also choose … Continue reading Old ways →

Room to stretch

I think in life it's important to have room to stretch. I believe that experimenting and exploring are such a key part of life that without them your life becomes limited. It can be in small ways such as trying a new hairstyle or big ways like moving to another country for 6 months. Sometimes, … Continue reading Room to stretch →

Something old, something new

I think one of the biggest reasons people have for going back to the office is face to face communication. There is this idea that instead of continuing to embrace and further develop what was created from having to work from home, we should regress back to the way things were. But I think there's … Continue reading Something old, something new →

Making space for what you want

Sometimes in order to bring in something new, you need to make space for it. A life that is filled to the brim with 'stuff' is not a life that is open to the new. It might seem like the change you want isn't happening or that things aren't working out for you. The reality … Continue reading Making space for what you want →

Keep exploring

There's something quite wonderful about being a beginner, starting something new with fresh eyes, optimism, excitement and curiosity. There are probably plenty of things that you've been doing for a long time to the point that they're a regular part of your daily, weekly or monthly routine. It could be old hobbies from childhood or … Continue reading Keep exploring →

Everything could be different

So often, we get deeply and strongly attached. We hope that things will remain as they are. We fear that change might bring in what we don't want and clear out what we do want. But, I like to believe that as wonderful and perfect as things might be right now, everything could be different … Continue reading Everything could be different →

A fresh start is a mindset not an action

When you think of a fresh start, what comes to mind? A new city, a new stage in education, a new country, a new relationship, a new job, a promotion or a new home. As much as those things are the beginning of new chapters in our lives, they don't necessarily mark a fresh start. … Continue reading A fresh start is a mindset not an action →

The way things were

Sometimes it helps to take a few steps back and return to the way things were. We often perceive this to be a negative thing as though we have regressed. However, it might actually be the case that the way you used to do things was much better. So often we search for better or … Continue reading The way things were →

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.
