When you know that something is coming to an end it can be easy to lose momentum and to lose interest. It can feel pointless to muster vigour and enthusiasm when you know that in a few weeks everything will be over. But all good things must come to an end, it's something we've all … Continue reading All good things must come to an end

What do you really want to do?
I think sometimes the fear we have of making the wrong choice is really just a sign that our mind is not clear. On the flipside, when you're mind is not clouded over with stuff you're able to be more spontaneous and quick thinking with your choices. More often than we realise we know exactly … Continue reading What do you really want to do?
Is it worth fixing?
Before you make the choice to fix something, ask yourself if the thing is worth fixing in the first place. Nobody wants to spend their time, energy and possibly money on something that could end up being a waste of time. As much as some things are worth sticking at and working on, sometimes the … Continue reading Is it worth fixing?
Do something you thought you’d never do
I think most people have a some idea of who they are, what they like and what they would and wouldn't do. Sometimes the idea we have of ourselves is flexible. We're open to the idea of changing even if that means being very different from who we were or who we thought we'd be. … Continue reading Do something you thought you’d never do
Maintaining enthusiasm
I think it's fair to say that most ideas begin with a bout of great enthusiasm. But overtime, the enthusiasm dwindles. Sometimes the ideas we have take much more time, effort and dedication than we anticipated. Once the excitement of starting something new wears away, you're just left with the work. if you're not committed … Continue reading Maintaining enthusiasm
The feeling of fitting in
When we're focused on how we appear to others, we can end up doing things that we don't actually enjoy. We become so focused on perception that we don't even consider the importance of prioritising ourselves. It's worth acknowledging that sometimes we have a need to feel accepted. When your self esteem is low it's … Continue reading The feeling of fitting in
All ideas welcome
When you're used to doing things alone, the thought of asking other people for their input, ideas or opinion might not be so appealing. But often seeking the perspective of an outsider is much more useful than we realise. They're able to see things from a point of view that is not so easily available … Continue reading All ideas welcome
Backing down is easy
If you're in a situation that you anticipate could be challenging, you may feel like the best thing to do is back down. That way you no longer have to deal with things or worry about the outcome being far from ideal. But backing down can also mean that you aren't willing to stand up … Continue reading Backing down is easy
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
Holding yourself back
I think one of the most common things that holds us back and stops us achieving our goals/aspirations is not focusing on the long term. You're so focused on every little thing that you have to do right now that you're missing the bigger picture. It might seem like it takes a lot of effort … Continue reading Holding yourself back
