I'm a collector of words, phrases, and quotes. Perhaps it comes from being a writer myself, or the fact I'm a bit of a bookworm, but whatever the reason may be I have various notebooks, apps, and other paraphernalia dedicated to scraps of sentences around me. One such place where I collect quote is in [...]
As I'm writing this post, I can't remember specifically what inspired this thought, but I have a feeling it was either a TED Talk video or a podcast. Either way, what matters most is the lesson behind it - although I do believe in sharing your sources when you can! - so I'm going to [...]
I wanted to call this post ‘Sunday Scheming’ because that day marks the end of a week for me, and that’s usually when I get randomly inspired to change my whole life. However, it’s currently a bank holiday in England which means this week is having a later start than usual for most, but I’ve [...]
Well, long time no write friends! I've just had a look and the last time I published anything on this blog was the end of last year -and I don't really want to count that as a 'proper post' because it was just a quick message. I've thought about coming back and writing basically none [...]
Before I go into this post, I just want to preface it by saying that I’m writing this in a low mood state. Writing is cathartic and I’m hoping by the end of this post I’ll feel lighter, but just to warn you, in case you too are in a dark place right now, that [...]
I've said this before, and no doubt I'll say it again, but it's hard to get what you want when you don't ask for it. You know by now that I'm exploring spirituality and getting into setting intentions, manifestation, and generally bettering myself through new means. A common thread within this field is asking for [...]
I am quite an opinionated person. This was something that I prided myself on when I was younger, as I thought it made me sound 'strong'. Really, it just made me sound like a dickhead. Now there's nothing wrong with expressing your opinions, obviously. But have you ever met someone who explicitly calls themselves 'opinionated' [...]
I spoke about coping mechanisms in my most recent post, where I was addressing one particular bad habit that I've developed over the years. While I don't want to get too repetitive here, I'm not quite finished with this topic of conversation. I've been thinking a lot about coping mechanisms, habits, and the things we [...]
This post is entirely inspired by this video by Mrs Midwest, so I gotta give credit where it's due. The title might sound a little aggressive and like something a traditional father who is still concerned with toxic masculinity would say, but I don't mean it that way. In the video I've just mentioned, Mrs [...]
Despite what the name suggests, as a perfectionist I find that I spend most of time being concerned with whether I'm doing something right, rather than doing it perfectly. I look for advice for all sorts of things, which is why I'm so obsessed with self-help and self-development. I like to see how other people [...]
