When it comes to new years resolutions the way I see it is that it's simply a record of what you want for yourself. The term new years resolutions has gotten a bad rap over the years. It's associated with a sort of temporary promise that you make at the start of the year and … Continue reading A new years resolution by any other name

How to tell if it’s working?
When you start implementing things like therapy, meditation, journaling, EFT, personal growth, personal development, reading self help books or whatever else it might be, you'll get to a point where you're asking yourself if it's working and maybe if it ever will work. You might find yourself questioning whether dedicating, time, energy and money to … Continue reading How to tell if it’s working?
The wrong time to apologise
When you're in a situation where someone doesn't like what you said or how you feel, your instinct may be to apologise. This probably feels like the easiest way to resolve the issue and you might even tell yourself that next time you'll be more careful about what you say around this person to avoid … Continue reading The wrong time to apologise
Money for nothing*
Creating a course and selling it is a great way to make money. Once you make it, there is no cap on how many times you can sell it. Also, unlike a physical product, you only have to make it once. It probably won't make you enough to earn a living but you can make … Continue reading Money for nothing*
Easy and fulfilling
Those are 2 words I'd use to describe the things we often end up doing in our free time. We look at what requires the least effort and go with it. Then, once it's over, we don't feel great because we know we'd have been better off doing something else. In an ideal world things … Continue reading Easy and fulfilling
Making the leap
If there's a gap between your life and the life you want, something has to change. Life can change or you can change. One of my major underlying themes for 2022 was change. Not my usual small scale gentle change. It was the large scale, transformative change. I'm starting to understand that there are benefits … Continue reading Making the leap
Willing to change
Often one of the things that stops us making necessary changes in our lives is this idea that we might prefer the way things were. We forget that many changes aren't permenant. If you cut your hair, it'll grow back or you can get a wig. If you leave your industry to try something new … Continue reading Willing to change
Why I’ve decided not to quit
I've previously written a post titled Short term creative projects. It was about things not needing to last, about having temporary projects and producing work in seasons. Those thoughts came from me wanting to make changes with how I choose to create moving forward. I've always struggled to keep a long-term vision. I find myself … Continue reading Why I’ve decided not to quit
That thing you’re avoiding
How is it we allow ourselves to be overwhelmed and consumed small simple tasks? Something that could take 10 minutes becomes challenging and scary. So, you put it off and tell yourself that you'll do it later, that you'll do it when you feel less afraid or less overwhelmed. Meanwhile the feelings won't go away … Continue reading That thing you’re avoiding
Short term creative projects
I used to have a negative perception of things that didn't last. It was as though the ending nullified all that had come before it. And so I wanted everything to last forever. However in the past 6 months or so I've started to see the appeal of short term creative projects. Creating in a … Continue reading Short term creative projects
