Sometimes I catch myself obsessing over the destination of a desire. I get so lost in pushing towards the destination that the journey turns into a blockage. Frustration builds and what is meant to be a beautiful experience crumbles. The question that caught me off guard was «what happens when I get there?» and I […]

Lets get personal: cause and effect of loosing oneself
I decided it was time to get a bit personal with you guys. A comment left on my previous post encouraged me to scratch the surface of my personal battles. One of the things I think we all struggle with in both large and small proportions throughout our lives, is that we loose ourselves. I’ll […]
Emotional flashbacks – what are they and how to discover them.
In my previous post I addressed emotional flashbacks without diving into what an emotional flashback is. I am addressing this subject today and hope that this will give you or someone you love a better understanding of self.

Emotional flashbacks.
Self-development is hard work. It’s a journey that never ends, but most of all the journey requires some extra loops to navigate through deep waters.

How to take the first step in giving zero f**ks about what other people think about you.

How to find motivation.
Happy Tuesday readers, I’ve been dwelling on this motivation-thing since yesterday and I think it’s time we look into it a tad more serious than all this happy-snappy-rainbow bullshit that overflows my instagram feed (and probably yours as well).
