Impressions matter. It would be nice to think people take our work at face value and appreciate a job well done. Maybe they look at us and see through the beautiful being we all are. But how often does this really happen? How many times talent is skewed in favor of better communication and how many chances are lost because…
Weall feel it from time to time. That little emptiness of energy. The jolt of stumbling in front of a blank page. The electrified tension between you and your thoughts. As if you are afraid of them. You don’t trust them enough inside you and you definitely don’t trust them to be put out in public. Blocks can happen through…
Losing stuff can be devastating. It forces you to re-evaluate and re-calibrate everything in your life out of a new light. We resemble a Windows PC stuck and overloaded, needed to be restarted. It’s only natural for people to experience some extreme emotions out of it. Anger, frustration and denial can be one of the main emotional mechanisms deployed in…
Wehear about it constantly. Spiritual gurus, phycologists and self-help coaches, continuously preach on getting ahead, reaching the next level and finding your true calls. They talk of a new area and mind shift that will leave your past-self shredded in pieces and will allow your true potential to thrive. But isn’t that a depressive thought as it is optimistic? I…
Thoughts create emotions. It’s a deterministic process. The way you think is the way you feel about things. But many times we fail to realise the inner workings of this. We pinpoint constantly to that inner critic of ours and we think this is all we need to stop to remove the negative feelings. So many articles ruminate in this…
The brain works in frequencies. You may have heard of the various waves that permutate inside it with their distinctive frequency lengths. There are alpha waves when you re relaxed listening to music in an alerted relaxation, beta when more awake doing your daily job and then the even higher divisions of the gamma range. They all denote how different parts of your mind work…
Somehow it happened that you found yourself closed within the four walls. Unable to go out, take a walk or find your friends. It is a scenario that nobody would have expected and it came suddenly and out of blue sky. But that doesn’t mean that you can’t use that time to your own advantage. Instead of sitting down bored…
There is a very distinctive characteristic on the adversities we meet every day. They trigger us to look out and compare our situation to others. What happens to our peers is our cornerstone of measurement for where we stand and what happens to us is inflicting a racing contest in fear we are left behind. Our whole lives is built in…
Another night out with friends. Another day in the job that you have to comply with rules, socialise with peers and be nice. Meetings, friends, notifications, digital or not, running constantly around you buzzing like a fly in your ear. The moment you are tempted to snooze out, boom! Another message on your phone. It’s the endless loop of dealing…
That wasn’t the first time trouble found you. It seems like problems and discomfort are chasing after you all while everybody else has a good time. Bad luck? Pure coincidence? You feel like a magnet pulling all bad scenarios towards you. Things that could go wrong did go downhill. Scenarios marked as edge case did find a way to materialise.…
