Staying in our comfort zone hinders our growth.

But there are times when staying in our comfort zone is important or in fact necessary.

What is important is developing a mindset in order to know when to stay in our comfort zone and when not to.

Vulnerability has become my super power.⁠
⁠
A source of strength that I wasn't aware of.⁠
⁠
Showing our true selves can empower us to form resilient communities, where support & shared experiences help us grow.⁠

I’ve spent at least 5 minutes a day on Duolingo in the past 3 years.

Creating a habit around something that we want to do, can be as simple or as complicated as we want it to be.

Successful flexible working trials go back to 2015. But there are still those who want to keep old ways of working.⁠

It’ll be insteresting to see which companies are willing to embrace the shift in mindset & the impact for their employees⁠

The 80/20 rule or Pareto Principle, says that 20% of our effort can generate 80% of our results.⁠

In regards to well being this is about nourishing habits that really have an impact.⁠
⁠
A simple walk or spending time in nature.⁠

We indeed need to shift our thinking towards things that serve us, our well being & our communities.

So today, I'm saying to all of us Rest In Peace (not the permanent type). Do whatever you need to do to rest because you deserve it

For me, slow living is a conscious choice to prioritise quality experiences over quantity and to give myself the time and space to be present in my daily interactions.⁠

Our emotions are colourful & complex.

Let's release the pressure to define and judge our feelings on their basic output.

It won't always be easy and we won't always get it right. But as I've said previously, it's about progress and not perfection.

Our negative experiences do not have to define us.

While they may shape us, they do not have to dictate who we are at our core.

Yes, it can be hard to not let them but it is possible.

My evening well being ritual is a sacred time for self-care and reflection. It is a gentle reminder for me to prioritise self-care and prepare for a restful night's sleep

I learned a new phrase a few months back.

Psychological reactance.

It’s our in built resistance against any efforts to change or grow.

The challenges of the past can sometimes weigh heavily on us.

They can hinder our progress and prevent us from moving forward.

They can also drain our energy and prevent us from embracing new opportunities.

The One Thing has been a game changer book for me.

One of the things I like most is that it can be applied to different areas of our lives from health & well being to relationships.
