Acquire Power Through Self Development
It is the natural right of every human being to be happy to escape all the miseries of life. Happiness is the normal condition, as natural as the landscapes and the seasons. It is unnatural to suffer and it is only because of our ignorance that we do suffer. Happiness is the product of wisdom. To attain perfect wisdom, to comprehend fully the purpose of life, to realize completely the relationship of human beings to each other, is to put an end to all suffering, to escape every ill and evil that afflicts us. Perfect wisdom is unshadowed joy.

It’s tough.
I’m sure you’ve been there; And if not then count your blessings. It is so common and yet here we are. Still afraid to even talk about it. We have such an understanding of it apparently, so why are we so far away from it being normal? If you don’t believe that then look at what needs to be changed. We call it “mental” health? Why when we are not mental we are normal beings? Are we meant to adapt to all of the wrongdoings in life? I’m sure if we were we wouldn’t go through it. It is brought on by severe distress or disbelief in an event in life, or by small events, both leading to the great destination that is depression. Now my own depression occurred through years of mental abuse from bullies effecting my confidence as they would comment on my appearance. I would bounce back and try not to let it get me down but when I look back I realise the great deal of stress it brought me. Fast forward 12 years to where I lost my best friend and my biggest protector, my dad. The one who I would know would always protect me from the big bad world, from the bullying and from the stress. Am I meant to just cope with the realisation of going off into the big bad world without him before I was officially an adult. Was I supposed to deal with this accordingly and not let it effect my thoughts? In all of this I have been abused, cheated on, lied to and walked all over by people I loved with all my heart. I am an animal lover, I used to go round moving snails off the pavement to the other side just to make sure they didn’t get trampled on in the dark. I believe everyone should be respected and should feel loved no matter what their story is because you don’t know what’s going on in their mind. I only know what’s going on in mine and can only hope no one is ever feeling the same way and I wouldn’t want to trigger an alarm in their head that could stress them out. So that’s it, be kind to everyone . It is that simple.

Completely Lost
Let`s just say I`m a 19 year old girl who`s completely lost in this world and mind. I feel like I don`t know what to do with my life so I decided to write when I need to express my internal battles and exterior conflicts. I use to write as a way of expressing since I struggle with verbally expressing myself. No, I don`t have thoughts of taking my life or causing self-harm but I do have thoughts of what my purpose on this earth is. I believe my purpose was to heal others, not physically like a nurse, but spiritually from the soul. I believe we`re all bruised and damaged but never broken. I`ve always been one that everybody went to when it came to expressing themselves without feeling judged and being heard and understood. i see myself as my own boss instead of working for someone else. I do have internal battles with myself. Sometimes I could be a bitch, and sometimes i could be the most sweetest person ever. I can`t help but be easily irritated with people and what they do but the nice side of me fights with me, letting me know that it`s nice and they don`t deserve that so I stay quiet. I could be the most social butterfly in the room being the life of the party and bringing everybody making sure everybody is having fun. At times I`m an introvert and anti-social. I feel intimidated talking to people because I feel like they`re watching me and judging everything I do just waiting for me to mess up. I swear that i have two polar opposite sides of me living in me and I don`t know how to handle them at times. But now I really feel like I don`t know what to do with them. I don`t want to go to college because I don`t know what i want my career to be yet because i see myself doing multiple things and they all make an impact on society but I don`t know which one would take the lead role in my life. So now I`m trying to find a job but it`s hard when I don`t have that much working experience and all the jobs I apply to either don`t get back to me or i get an interview to be denied after that. I`m stuck in this little dark bubble feeling all this stagnant energy and I`m lost on what to do. I keep pushing and pushing but how much more pushing do I need to do before I find something to do with myself instead of being lost in the mist of this stagnant energy.

Things 2020 Has Taught Me
2020 has been a year full of challenges. Honestly, it has felt like we are all playing a video game that no one has played before and we skipped the instructions. Plus, we selected the hardest level available. It has been one gut punch after another. I kept finding myself asking ”when will this get better”? However, I am still trying to see the light at the end of the tunnel. With all the rain and storms, there has to be a few rainbows in the mix. Yes, 2020 had pushed my mental stability to the limit, but there was some time for me to grow. So, I present to you, Things 2020 Has Taught Me.

Pay Attention
Who are you paying attention to? Often, we pay attention to the wrong things in life. This can and will be a problem if you are not careful. Knowing the difference when you allow yourself to pay attention to little things going on around, you can save you a lot of hurt and pain in the long run. Often, it can even save your life. Who we pay attention to is important because we tend to entertain the wrong people, places, and things then wonder why we can’t get our lives back on track. Now I do understand that the world is a big place to live in. Simultaneously, as humans, we have to be mindful of things that could pull us in the wrong direction if we succeed in life.

As an almost Type A personality, I love working and finishing my tasks. When I am typing away on my laptop, completing my assignments before time, it leaves me with a deep sense of accomplishment. I thrive when I hit the submit button before everyone else does.

Don't listen to the majority - listen to your body
Right, first and foremost, I am not trying to say that I have a magic formula for weight loss. It does take hard work, determination, bad days, good days and a whole lot of time. That being said, I am mainly writing this to try to motivate others, and let them know that it is possible, and that it can be done without any of the extreme diets that are currently touted around social media regularly.

Motivation To Keep You Moving During Lockdown!
When the world first came crashing to a halt back in March my routine was completely thrown out the window. I lead a relatively active lifestyle, I swim every other day, I try to go to the gym a few times a week, I do yoga, I’m generally on the go rushing from one place to the next. And suddenly, I wasn’t doing any of these things, I couldn’t swim, I couldn’t do classes at the gym, there was nowhere for me to be. I felt the effect this had on the body, initally my mood was low, my routine was thrown out of the window. Luckily I managed to figure out a way to keep my body active, moving, from my very own home, which ultimately resulted in a better mood and lots of positive endorphins without leaving my own home.

Creative Uncertainty
Let me start by asking a simple question. 1 x 10 = 10 x 1, True or false? Well, It depends on how you look at it. Mathematically yes, it’s true. I can fool 10 people once, but I probably can’t fool 1 person 10 times. Logic and maths aren’t all they’re cracked up to be.
