Journalling: The Simplistic Power of Scribbling Your Troubles Away
For many years, I have struggled to materialise vague and mostly unrealistic New Years Resolutions I make year-to-year. Like many of you reading this, I have set unattainable, yet super common, yearly goals such as losing a ridiculous amount of weight for a self-confidence boost, or getting up every morning at 5AM to do yoga and meditation, and another previous one I am not proud to admit: finding someone so I don't have to have the painful annual Christmas talk with extended family who never fail to ask if I have found a partner or significant other yet (evidently Tinder proved ineffective over the years).

Have you ever stared out into the sea for what seems like hours, yet the only thing that we focus on is how big it really is. I mean, really big, never ending. We stand there flabbergasted at the fact that this massive body of water, containing millions of life forms underneath the surface where nobody can even see, just goes on forever. We try so hard to see farther than our eyes are letting us, why can’t our minds do the same? We can sit for hours and think about the endless dreams and goals we want to achieve, but the truth is, it ends with us.
Kylie HartwigPublished 6 years ago in MotivationIntroduce Yourself
What does it mean to be whole-heartedly ourselves? You can say that you have "found yourself," or that you are "uniquely your own," but how do we know what that even is? Everything we’ve absorbed and maintained has been things that we’ve seen, that we’ve heard, that we’ve accepted as ours.

Adam MaxtedPublished 6 years ago in MotivationThe Numbers of Life
We all do it; the whole of society measures their lives by numbers. The numbers on the scales. The number of people we have sex with. The number of online friends (or enemies) we have. The number that reads on our bank balance. We are all told these numbers matter. We are told if our numbers aren't good enough then we should be ashamed of ourselves, our self worth is worthless.
Leigh HooperPublished 6 years ago in Motivation10 Tips to Achieve Self Love
Self love is the most important love you will ever receive, so why do so many people struggle with this? In a world of photoshop, trolls, and everything in between, I'm not surprised people of today's society are struggling with loving themselves. The celebrities they see on TV have been reconstructed with plastic surgery and magazines plaster airbrushed versions of everyone so that we are left to believe our bodies are just one big imperfection.

Do you know what your birth chart says? Or, do you even know what a birth chart is? Your birth chart is based off of the time, location, and date of your birth. At the time when you were born, every planet and star and thing up there in the universe was in a specific place. Doesn't seem like it matters, but it absolutely does. Your birth chart displays where all those planets and stuff were, and this contributes to the magic that is your personality.

A few years ago I thought I had a pretty good handle on astrology, I thought your sun sign helped predict what vibe was going on for you day to day etc. Then, I was introduced to my Moon Sign.
Sarah GoldsmithPublished 6 years ago in MotivationHow to Convince Yourself to Go Exercise
I thought the only way I could work out was by going to the gym, or running. If someone said "I love running," I would most likely respond with "Good for you, I'm the queen of France." No one loves running.
Mars A.M.Published 6 years ago in MotivationChanging the Dialogue
Creating permanent change: Perhaps the fastest and most effective way to improve your well-being immediately is by changing your inner dialogue. For just 15 minutes today I implore you to be an observer within your own mind. Sit back and take note of the way you naturally speak to and about yourself. You’ll be shocked to find out how utterly judgement our internal voice has become. We are so used to it hearing it day in and day out that we no longer recognize how nasty it can be.

I was sweating. Profusely. In my bright blue new Old Navy jumpsuit, that was very flattering on my figure, that made my legs look long as if they went on for miles, that was very hard to pee in. In my new Goodwill shoes, the white and brown decoration that criss-crossed over my toes. In my broken blue glasses that matched my bright blue new Old Navy jumpsuit. In my huge hot pink heart earrings that added the perfect pink pop of color to my majority blue ensemble. In my bracelets that came from all over the world, that came from my travels and my aunt's travels and my mom's travels and my friend's travels. I was either too casual or too formal, I knew I should've listened to my mom when she told me to do my makeup and curl my hair, maybe add a nice white necklace and primp myself until I wasn't myself anymore. I knew I should've listened to Kallie when she told me to throw on any old T-shirt and jeans, to wear my busted up sneakers from painting sets and building costumes all summer, to just pretend I had just rolled out of bed so I could relate to the other performers.
