Relax harder
Nothing should be more important to you than your own health and wellbeing. Rest and recuperation should never feel like a guilty indulgence.
No feeling is final
No matter how stuck you might feel, no moment is eternal and no feeling is final. There is always a way through.
Happiness, more or less?
How happy do you feel, in this moment? What brings happiness to your world? What is the secret to happiness for you?
Open
Gentle reader, a simple question: How open and honest are you? With others? With yourself?
At the heart of things
What are you left with when things fall apart? What is at the heart of things for you? What truly guides you?
In our darkest hours
Gentle reader: As we enter the second half of 2022, how are you feeling? Truly and honestly? If you find yourself in dark hours, remember that the brilliant light within yourself can never be dimmed.
Some kind of surrender?
Does the secret to a good life lie in achieving the ideal balance between control and surrender?
Glorify
Could the behaviours, thoughts and values that you glorify be doing you more harm than good? A short and simple post inspired by some wise words from Sahil Bloom.
Make it exemplary
Make it exemplary. Three simple but demanding words. They challenge us to do our best in whatever we do.
