How To Do It All

This week, I want to talk about why you often know unconsciously what you have to do in any situation, as your subconscious mind is constantly gathering information around you, processing it and forming conclusions in the background, without you even realising it consciously. 

We often ignore our sixth sense and gut instinct, but our subconscious minds frequently provide us with insights and guidance. Our internal compass is always...

This week I want to talk to you about why we should usually resist the temptation to offer someone our advice, unless it is specifically requested from us. Sometimes, our need to say something feels more important to us than another person's need to hear us. 

Listening is often more valuable than speaking. Usually, unsolicited advice feels intrusive, even if it is well-intentioned and informed. There are also moments where silenc...

This week, I want to emphasise the importance of having a sense of urgency and being decisive, to break free from the procrastination and paralysis of overthinking. This becomes a habit that leads to greater achievement. It’s why people say if it has to be now, it has to be now! 

Acting promptly means seizing opportunities that may not come around again, ensuring we make the most of the present. When we realise something must happ...

This week, I want to talk to you about why, if you look at something for long enough, you eventually start to see things you didn't notice before. This is because our brains are wired to find meaning in visual stimuli, which reveals hidden details after prolonged observation.

When you gaze at an image, your initial impression captures obvious elements. However, by staring longer, your brain begins processing subtler details, uncove...

This week I want to talk to you about why you should try to consciously do things unconsciously! I know it sounds a bit paradoxical, but by consistently doing thing through repetition, it often makes things easier for you overall. It’s really quite liberating!

Have you ever witnessed a transformation from effortful to effortless? When you consciously do something enough until it becomes second nature, what you do then seems natural...

This week, I want to explain why there's never a right time for bad news. It’s often the phrase that echoes in our minds when unexpected things come at us. It feels sometimes like the universe is pointing out that we don’t have as much control as we think!

We often feel like we're just passengers on an unpredictable journey in life. No matter how meticulously we plan, life sometimes delivers news to us that seems to halt everything...

This week, I want to talk about why it's so important to learn to take a breather and just pause sometimes. When you do this, you're giving your brain a moment to catch up. Trust me, you always feel better when you take a breather and look at things again. 

Life can get incredibly hectic. It always feels like we're juggling a million things and trying to keep all the plates spinning in the air like in the circus. It's really amazin...

This week I want to talk about how sometimes you find yourself in situations where you feel “damned if you do and damned if you don’t”. In some situations, no matter the choice you make, it feels like neither outcome is good and trouble awaits, no matter what you do.

It’s very frustrating sometimes having to navigate situations where consequences feel inevitable. You are often frozen, trying to work out whether it's better to speak...

This week I want to talk to you about why you should not be afraid to start again, no matter how old you are. I know that starting over can often feel daunting, but please trust me, age is just a number. 

Sometimes you feel as though you're at the crossroads of life, where everything seems uncertain. But starting again can often be the best decision you ever make, as it's a chance to reinvent and rediscover yourself. Change can be ...

This week I want to talk to you about how mistakes are often successes in disguise, although you may wonder how errors can ever be celebrated as successes. However, every mistake sometimes opens a door, which you may have previously not noticed, or overlooked.

Do you ever feel that mistakes may not be the failures you think? Initially, mistakes feel like setbacks, but you eventually notice how blunders redirect focus, or challenge ...

This week, I want to tell you how you can't be good at everything and how you cannot push yourself constantly, always looking for perfection in everything that you do, because that's just exhausting and unrealistic. Life's too short to have unrealistic expectations.

Unfortunately, we always seem to try to do everything, because everything interests us. However, we have to remind ourselves to just focus on the things that we are gen...

This week, I want to tell you why nobody can tell a story as well as you can, as there’s always a very special and unique feeling about storytelling, especially if it’s about something that has happened to you personally.

Words have a magical way of painting vivid pictures in someone's mind. When you tell a story, your unique perspective and voice will usually shine through in the narrative and you can even sometimes find people ha...

This week I want to talk to you about the importance of laughter, something we often overlook. Laughter is such a crucial part of life though, as we face daily challenges. It’s a bit like a personal reset button that’s always within your reach.

You know when everything around you seems so serious? Laughter lightens things and reminds us that not everything always needs to be taken so seriously. Simple humour lifts spirits and forms...

This week, I want to talk about how, if you always try to please everyone, you'll just please nobody in the end. I’m afraid this is a hard lesson to learn for everybody to learn and is only something you eventually realise through harsh and repetitive experiences over time!

We spend so much time trying to make everyone happy. It always instinctively feels like the right thing to do, even though it’s often exhausting. Yet, no matter...

This week, I want to talk about how you have to use something or invest in itregularly, or you will lose it. Whatever it is, skills, relationships, or health, unless you give something your regular attention and nurture it, it just withers away. 

Use it or lose it. This phrase is so true for almost everything in life. Skills, opportunities, health, etc. If you don't actively engage in something, you often risk losing things that ar...

This week, I want to talk about how motivation first requires action . Like many people, I genuinely used to believe that motivation was needed first before taking action. But I’ve come to realise over time that it’s actually usually the other way around - motivation kicks in after taking action! 

It’s really empowering knowing this, as you then realise that, when motivation feels elusive, or not in your control, taking action alwa...

This week I want to talk to you about how you can usually turn a disaster into an opportunity, no matter how  grim things seem sometimes. Don’t worry, we’ve all been there.  Yet, it’s really amazing how a simple change in your perspective and approach can quickly change everything!

As I have said before, life sometimes throws unexpected curveballs your way. It’s not always easy when this happens and your first impulse may just be t...

This week, I want to talk to you about how, contrary to the old adage,  you actually *can* have your cake and eat it too these days and, if you really think about it, the saying, "You can’t have your cake and eat it too," is perhaps now not as right as it once was! 

How can you simultaneously have and eat a cake too. It's just not physically possible, as it’s a contradiction, isn’t it? Perhaps not, as this balance has become increa...

This week, I want to talk to you about why it’s so important not to make assumptions about anything or anyone and not to put 2 and 2 together sometimes and make 5! Making assumptions without sufficient evidence can lead to misunderstandings and unnecessary complications. 

We’ve often seen ourselves or other people make assumptions about things and connect imaginary dots where there really aren’t any, or jump to conclusions too quic...
