Dealing with frustrations
Can you handle your frustrations and the negative emotions?
Experienced any frustrations this week? Welcome to my week of highs and lows. I got a new laptop with a new operating system last weekend. Today’s Thursday and I’m still struggling with the different functionalities. It feels like every step takes 2x or 3x as long as with the old laptop. Very frustrating!
But it doesn’t need to be frustrating. Learn here how you can reduce your frustrations by making small mindset changes.
Focus
Do you focus on your vision?
“Focus on what’s important to you!” That’s my new motto. In recent weeks and months, I’ve had so many things on my plate. Everything required time and efforts from me and at times, I felt like a circus performer juggling 15 little oranges. Despite managing most of the time, I lost my vision and wasn’t focusing anymore. It was almost like auto pilot, just get it done.
Birthday celebrations
Why I don’t want any presents for my birthday
It’s my birthday and it’s my favourite day of the year! Birthdays are a big deal and if you’ve met me, you know I love birthdays. Birthdays are a great way to celebrate and be celebrated.
Each year, I’m grateful for what I’ve achieved. Although, I admit at times, it doesn’t appear as an achievement. Celebrating another birthday today, I’m grateful. I’ve set up my own company, am getting work in, live in a beautiful home, have plenty of food on the table (and consequently a bit too much on my hips), wonderful loved ones and friends who I cherish, am healthy. I’m good!
A for Appointments
How to keep track of your appointments
“We’d like to confirm your appointment.” When I first moved to the region, I found it quite odd how everyone called me to confirm our appointments. I quickly learnt that sticking to appointments was a given and just the other week, a reader asked me how to keep track of appointments. By now, I use the confirmation calls as pure reminders. But surely, there’s also a simpler way to keep track of your appointments?

Organise your bedroom
Create your zen bedroom
Ever stepped into your bedroom, completely wrecked but couldn’t fall asleep when laying in your bed? There were clothes on your bed, books and magazines laying on your nightstand, or maybe dirty laundry on the floor? All you could think of was this messy bedroom.
A peaceful bedroom will let you enjoy sleep like a baby and who of us would turn quality sleep away? I can’t afford to toss and turn just to wake up tired and possibly also grumpy. You can take a few simple steps and create your own calm and serene bedroom that you’ve been dreaming of.

Clutter is anything unfinished, unused, unresolved or disorganised. When you clear your clutter, you create space for new things and your energy and creativity will increase. (Unknown)
