Criticism
We all have to deal with a certain level of criticism in our lives. Whether it is to do with our performance at work, something we need to work on personally or the way in which we have approached something it is inevitable that we will experience it. Sometimes it can be hard to hearContinue reading “Criticism”
Let today be great
Just a small reminder that you are unique. There is no one like you, you are special. Let today bring out the shine in you. Remember that it’s okay to not be okay. Just be you. Wherever you are, know that you can have better days if this one isn’t working out
End of Year Reflection
I love looking at images of the night sky. I find it so calming and magical. This year, I feel, has been a year of immense growth. It has come with a lot of struggles and pain; more than I have felt in a long time. I felt so guilty replaying the intense emotions andContinue reading “End of Year Reflection”
Life Decisions
Recently I had been thinking about my job and how I feel about it. It was a strange and unsettling feeling. I didn’t think I would ever have that feeling again.

Comfort Zone
Often, we hear the saying “get out of your comfort zone ” and I’ve been thinking a lot about this recently. As an introvert my comfort zone is being with family or a couple of close friends in a not so busy environment. This was emphasised when I went out for a work meal andContinue reading “Comfort Zone”

Do not let yourself get in the way of yourself! I chose this image of a wilting flower because, hypothetically, if you are not allowing your self time to grow (not enough water and care) then you are stopping yourself becoming the best version of you. I have sometimes wondered if a lot of theContinue reading “You”
