When you take the time to look back on your life, do you think there is anything you missed out on? The job you turned down, the work you were too afraid to put yourself forward for, the project you never launched... There are so many things that we all could have done with our … Continue reading Missed opportunities

Back to the drawing board
The plans you made a year ago, 6 months ago or even a few weeks ago may now be obsolete. You can time planning far in advance but when it comes to putting those plans into action, you never really know how things will go until you see the results. Sometimes the results are as … Continue reading Back to the drawing board
What will you run to?
This time inside is no doubt forcing you to step away from somethings you'd rather run towards. But there's probably a few things you have space from right now that you don't want back in your life. It could be a job, people you spend time with or the places you used to go. Being … Continue reading What will you run to?
Hoping for the best
This is the way of the optimist. It's also worth remembering that even if things don't turn out in the way that you consider to be 'the best', it doesn't mean all hope is lost. That way no matter what life throws at you, you'll be able to roll with it with a little less … Continue reading Hoping for the best

Turns out that the 9-5 isn't as necessary as it once was.

It's so useful to fill your life with little things that bring you joy that you have easy access to. Something extravagant like a week in the Maldives isn't accessible … Continue reading The little things that bring us joy
Self-depreciating
But make it humorous. How many times have you gone into a situation and rejected yourself or put yourself down before others had the chance? And of course you don't just say it out right, you make a joke because everyone likes to laugh. If it's at your expense, maybe they'll keep you around. It's … Continue reading Self-depreciating
I want the world…
We all have our Veruca Salt moments every once in a while. Can you think of a time when you got annoyed/angry when you didn't get what you want? Maybe you had an idea of what you wanted in your mind but found that the other people in your life didn't comply with that vision. … Continue reading I want the world…
Not every moment defines you
Just because you fail doesn’t make you a failure, if someone doesn’t accept your help doesn’t make you useless and so it goes on. I think sometimes we try so hard to define things and to define who we are that we miss the bigger picture. It’s not about being a winner or a loser. … Continue reading Not every moment defines you
An easy way to be misunderstood
Hiding who you are is an easy way to find yourself misunderstood. If you focus on only being a small fragment of your true self then that is what people will take you as. That small fragment could be serious and hardworking but deep down you have a silly side. Maybe you're embarrassed about the … Continue reading An easy way to be misunderstood
