The Reason Why You Buy More Than You Need
Throughout my life, I have had the opportunity to witness many people wasting money to buy more than they actually need. There can be many reasons that explain this habit. We all know a bunch of people that splurge and make poor financial decisions. We can classify them and make a fast analysis of their life and also ours to find out why we end up buying more than we need and often throw money away in order to get things we don´t need. I have collected a few theories based on random people that I met at some point in my life, including myself. Let me know if you…

What Does Success Really Mean?
You want to achieve success. You know you want to feel successful. We improve ourselves (or try to) in order to get there. We think we are getting closer and on our worst days, we feel far away from it. But, what is Success? Money? The idea of having loads of money and being rich? Fame? The idea some people has of fame? To have many followers on Instagram or a job with a six-figure salary? Success is a blurred concept that people mention so much but at the same time, nobody can explain what exactly is it? In some previous post, I even wrote some steps to be successful.…

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…

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.

Habits That Will Help You Become The Real Owner Of Your Life
“We are all slaves, it doesn’t matter where you live or what you do for a living”. I’ve heard that sentence a million times, and it stays in my mind nowadays because it explains the foundation of society. We are born in a place by pure chance. It is a lottery none of us played for. None of us decided on which country or family be born. However, all countries survive with a similar system. You will study for some years (which vary according to the place you are), the subjects you study will vary depending on the country. But they will be already established in order to prepare you…
