Everybody loves appreciation and positive feedback. Everybody wants to have a purpose in life, therefore we are also looking for a deeper meaning in our job, since we spend quite a lot of time in it. We want to see where we are going and have a feeling like the time we spend is time spend well. Basically we want to do something purposeful and meaningful in our life. Something we can be proud of...
Your decisions determine the quality of your life. When you take poor quality actions in your life, your life sucks. When you take high quality actions in your life, your life flourishes. Sounds quite simple and actually it is. When you decide to watch your diet and exercise daily, major improvements of your body figure and your mind are inescapable. On the other hand if you let yourself run wild...
In a relationship everybody is looking for that special person. There is this big picture in our head what our ideal partner (the one?) should look like and how he should behave and what he should do, etc. But sometimes we focus our thoughts so much on what we want, and we forget what we don’t want, which is equally important. You have to know everything you are looking for in a person and...
To-Do lists are great. I just love the fact that you can put stuff on them, cross them off again and feel super awesome about it! It makes me feel like I have accomplished something! But even better than that is the fact that it gives you some kind of structure and overview over your tasks at hand. But for a lot of people their to-do list becomes their biggest obstacle. You have to keep them...
It is weird that it is very easy for us to judge other people’s situations and have the perfect solutions for them, but we can’t do this for ourselves sometimes. Or maybe this is just me, I don’t know. =) Of course there are times where I know exactly what I have to do and I take constant action to resolve that issue, but sometimes I am just blind, ignorant or both. I struggle...
When I was first introduced to the concept of meditation I was skeptical. Well, no. At first I actually thought this is complete and utter bullshit… yes, that describes it better. But somehow I came back to it, probably years later when I was reading Eckhart Tolle’s book The Power of Now (which is by now still my favorite book and you can read my book report on how it changed my life...
How comes that people talk about making changes in their lives and yet find themselves stuck in unhealthy habits that no longer serve them? They want to drop them once and for all, but still find themselves always coming back to the old routines. What is this, who came up with that great idea?! A lot of people find themselves having struggles with establishing habits that support them, or letting...
“Wear your weakness like an armor, and it can never be used to hurt you” When some people are rude to us we tend to look for the error in them. We might get angry. We believe that they are the cause of the problem. We like to blame others for our life situation because it is just easier. But as I deeply believe, you are always the cause of your experiences. When people treat you in an...
A breakup is tough. In fact it is probably the most deflating and destroying thing you might experience in your life. And it never gets easier. It makes no difference if you are the one being broken up with or if you are the one breaking up with your partner. It just simply hurts. Everything you build up with your partner, everything you had in that relationship is gone from one moment to the...
Breaking habits is tough, no doubt! But still some people are better at it than others. Some people reach a dead-end in their life, with their back against the wall and they feel like there is no other way around other than changing some key elements in their life. This is when they transform. Small people begin to shine, shy people express themselves to the fullest, poor people reach enormous...
Express Yourself, Get Appreciated And Never Feel Alone Again Whenever you feel isolated from others and alone in the world you are doing something wrong. We live in a world where connecting with others is easier than ever. And yet a lot of people struggle with the feeling of being alone, different or separated from others. They feel like they do not belong here and that there is nobody out...
Why are we complaining about stuff in the first place? I don't get it... When we complain about anything in life we mostly don't like the things the way they are at that very moment. We want them to be better because we judge them as being bad.
