Finding Peace in a Time of Fear
Finding Peace in a Time of Fear
The world and our lives are constantly changing. I have found that long durations of peace and happiness are often followed by times of fear. Almost like a cycle, my life throws me into good and bad times on a regular basis. Although we do our best to avoid negative situations, the unpredictable nature of life often puts us in these circumstances. And we can either run from it or face it…

How to Live and Not Merely Exist

We All Need to Learn to Slow Down
We All Need to Learn to Slow Down
In the story of the hare and the tortoise, we learn that slow and steady wins the race. It is true that those who take a steadier approach to success are often the ones who achieve it.

Here are three lessons you may have missed from the…

Slow and Steady Really Does Win the Race
Slow and Steady Really Does Win the Race
One of my favourite stories of all time is the hare and tortoise. As a child who loved sports, especially sprinting, I would always question the accuracy of the fable. I would always tell my teachers that realistically the tortoise would lose in a race every time. And that the hare was way faster than the tortoise could ever be. As I got older, I understood the moral of the story. Success is…

Now more than ever, young people feel the pressure to become wealthy. One good thing I have to say about my generation is that they are very entrepreneurial. They have a spirit that pushes them to create the world they want to see. Although this mindset has its negatives, there is hope for the future.

You Are Braver Than You Can Ever Imagine
You Are Braver Than You Can Ever Imagine
Over the last three years, I have spent much time delving into who I want to become. It has been a journey, and it is constantly developing, but it is starting to settle. I went from wanting to become rich in real estate, to not carrying about money much. Then, I thought about starting my own tech company, to then realise I did not want to be an engineer. Finally, I settled on not carrying…

The Joy of Being Misunderstood
The Joy of Being Misunderstood
I remember almost having a panic attack in my room at university after realising that my family do not understand me. Recently, I have even had to make the tough decision to leave an organisation due to fears of being pushed out by those who could not stand me. Being misunderstood by the ones who I care about the most can scare us. However, I have found comfort in being misunderstood. It Is…

How I Found Comfort in Being Misunderstood
How I Found Comfort in Being Misunderstood
For most of my life, I have been misunderstood. It may have been my views on a particular topic or how I have carried myself. Unfortunately, I cannot think like others or remain silent on issues. Despite going through much of my life like this, I have not been left alone. On the contrary, I have a few very close friends and a supportive partner. All of them have their moments of shock when they…

Start Being True to Yourself
We are often taught to not lie to others, but what about not lying to ourselves? It is a sad reality that we treat others better than we do ourselves. And lying to ourselves is one of the ways we do this. Here are the three reasons why you should start being honest with yourself. Once I stopped lying to myself, I experienced growth unimaginable. Self-Acceptance We have got so used to comparing…

How Honesty Leads Us to Our Best Selves
We are on a never-ending journey of discovering who we are. In my own life, I have struggled much with being myself. Although it can sometimes feel like I am the only one who does this, I know I am not alone. Unfortunately, life is a game we have not decided to play. We did not ask to be here, but here we are. And life chucks us a bunch of games we have to learn to play. Relationships, work,…

The Number One Blocker to Success
The Number One Blocker to Success
Our pursuit for success can be one of confusion and difficulty. For the most part, many spend much time defining what it means. If it were as easy as money and fame, the world would look very different from what it is now. If we were to collect a random sample of people, I am sure all their definitions of success would be different. However, there are ideas around success that remain similar in…

Can We Ever Find the Truth We Seek
The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives. – Albert Einstein In one of my more recent articles, I discuss the importance of not letting your bias’ govern your truth. As intellects, you must break your perceptions of reality and stare reality in the face. In doing so, we get closer to truth and living a life of…
