2019 Starter Pack
With the beginning of 2019, we feel it’s the right time to start working again on ourselves and improve the habits we have left behind. This includes resolutions, changes and new interests. This post is not so much about the resolutions, but about my personal Starter Pack for this year. 2018 has been an incredibly eventful year, with different chapters and experiences in my life and the results have been extremely positive for me. That’s one of the reasons I want to work harder and harder and improve myself and my life. I decided to put together a few items that will help me change some of the habits I wasn’t happy…

7 Ways to Avoid Family Dinners at Christmas
With the given date, I can’t stop reading and hearing people talking about how much they hate Christmas dinners. Some people hate the food, some others the company 😊 Easy, I will give you a few examples of how to avoid them, or at least spend less time in there. 1- An old person fell on the street This one allows you to be late (or very late). You just need to send a message somebody that will be at the dinner, let them know that just in front of you an elder person fell and you had to help him because you were the only one in there.

5 Amazing Books You Need to Read Before Going Back to the Real World
Some years ago, one of my teachers was talking about the importance of reading. He said something along the lines of “When I see a teenager reading, I think, he’s saved”. Well, that’s bullshit. I don’t think reading ANY type of book is going to save you from whatever that sentence was referring to. Some books are simply a waste of time. Nowadays, most publishers are more interested in the money the book is going to make than the quality of the book itself. Some of the books that I read in my teenage years were a waste of time. They entertained, yes, but didn’t help me learn or grow…

Self-image and Success
One of the funniest things about doing what you want to do and pursuing your goals and find yourself in a position of success is that often, the only thing stopping you from getting it are your own insecurities. As humans, we have fears, self-esteem issues and insecurities, so…what can we do about it? Once I read that we are born with 2 fears, the fear of falling and the fear of loud voices. Those are the only natural real fears we are supposed to have. As we grow up, our environment creates more insecurities that we suck in, drink and normalise. Which fears can stop us from believing we…

Waking Up Early and Gym Experience: Review
The time has come. The most expected post of the year is here because I finally did it. I woke up earlier and went to the gym before starting my job. I write this post to relate my experience, my thoughts and the pros and cons of doing this to me. Needless to say (even though I am doing it), this is only my personal experience and it doesn’t need to be the same as others (spoiler alert, is not). On a previous post, I listed a few habits that could help you be successful in your life. Going to the gym at an early hour wasn’t one of them,…

Control freak: All Diaries You Could Ever Need
After publishing a few posts about organisers, diaries and budget trackers, I thought it was a good idea to show on a quick post what are my real tools to keep the track of almost everything. I use each of these diaries for different areas of my life and the problem has come now that I am almost on the very last page of one of my favourite ones. Let me introduce you to the least important for my financial/personal life… I wasn’t sure about mentioning this one, but why not? I use it to keep track of the task I need to finish each day in my job.…
