Be Kind to yourself (continued)

The above image is a passage taken from a book that really resonates with me. I have written a piece entitled 'Be Kind To Yourself' before, but I don't feel as though it is a topic that can be exhausted. It is too important and, in my opinion, not spoken about enough. The passage focuses … Continue reading Be Kind to yourself (continued) →

We Are Only Responsible For Ourselves

Ok, I love this picture and everything it stands for. Too often are we tricked into thinking we are responsible for the actions or happiness of others, when in reality that couldn't be further from the truth.

In my previous posts, I have touched on two topics which affect my life: vanity and motivation, so it only feels right for the third post to combine them. In 2013, I left my life as I knew it and moved to Sheffield for University. Unfortunately, unbeknownst to me, I was leaving my body, as … Continue reading Living a Life of Leisure (Centres) →

Being Mildly Motivated: An Abusive Relationship with Yourself

One thing that I have learnt never to underestimate is my ability to avoid doing stuff. These tasks are unlimited in their variety; all that is certain is that if I feel as though I ‘should’ be doing it, a lot of the time I won’t be. Not doing/starting/completing things is not especially out of … Continue reading Being Mildly Motivated: An Abusive Relationship with Yourself →
