The Day My Reality Changed
On February 2nd 2019, I experienced a traumatic event that changed a lot about the way I live and how I take care of myself. Before this event occurred I used to have a very unhealthy diet and not take much care of myself in other ways as well, I got to the point where I was drinking up to two two liters of soda a day, and was also eating pretty unhealthy food. I used to not care about what I was putting in my body or how processed certain foods were and I would eat or drink it regardless of how bad the stuff was for me, and I also didn't really exercise much back then. Now my diet is much different and I also feel like I take better care of myself to the extent that I am able to.

The girl in the slum
Dear Mama, Every morning I wake up to your loud shrilly voice screaming my name. It never gets easier, even after sixteen years. But today, as I sit here with a swollen shoulder from your bamboo cane, I can't help but wonder if God hears our cries. I know we go to church every Sunday and Wednesday, and we give almost everything we have to the church on Thanksgiving. But sometimes I wonder if it's all worth it. Do you truly believe in what you do, or do you only do it because the pastor says you should?

What are Mind spheres?
How did the Mind spheres of emotions increase our conversion rate? I am the creator of the Mind Tracker service. Basically, Mind Tracker is a rethought diary of emotions. We released it a year ago. Keeping a diary of emotions is not easy at all, on average, you will feel the effect in 2-4 weeks. It’s really lazy and sometimes even infuriating to log in and mark your mood and emotions every day. Even though this is the first sign that the therapeutic effect is already beginning. But now less about the therapy itself, and more about how we tried to keep the users’ attention, and what we did.
