Trusting yourself is tough, but could it be the very thing that sets you free? I believe that self-trust is what makes us strong, resilient, and successful. So, do you trust yourself?
Embracing Life’s Spectrum: Living Free
We can free ourselves by thinking less black and white. Less us and them. Less "you are or you aren't". Because life should be lived on a spectrum. And this spectrum both sets us free and connects us... Personality & Identity We are never fully formed. People will have you believe that once you… Continue reading Embracing Life’s Spectrum: Living Free
Why We Need Sadness
Most of us don't like feeling sad. It's one of the emotions that are branded as "negative" and so we avoid feeling it. In fact, we avoid it so much that we deny it.

The Problem with Happiness
The majority of us want one thing from our lives: to be happy. But I think we've got this wrong. We should aim for Contentment, not Happiness; because one is a position or status (contentment), while the other is just an emotion (happiness). And you can't have one emotion forever. The problem with happiness is… Continue reading The Problem with Happiness

And it's also, as always, here online to inspire you to realise the truth about yourself, too. As I'm… Continue reading Self-Appreciation Post: 16 Brags
Indecision, Crisis, Paralysis (Poem)
