Being exceptional means exactly what it says: being an exception. Chasing goals and achieving them is great. You become wealthier, more fulfilled, fitter, happier, and, overall, a better version of yourself. But there’s a price to pay. When you commit to chasing your dreams, you aggravate a lot of

Most of the problems we face during the pursuit of a goal come from our tendency to overthink. This is assuming we even get to the point of action, as thinking alone can be enough to stop us from taking action to begin with. We get caught up in lists

“Time goes by so quickly” Does it? Or you were just never there to begin with?  Most of the time, we’re either dwelling on the past or worrying about the future, and before you know it, the present becomes the past. If you’re never where your feet are,

I’ve mentioned many times that discipline is the better and more reliable alternative to motivation, and although motivation is great when available, it shouldn’t be relied on.  But where does that leave seeking and receiving motivation from external sources like films and videos on social media?

If you had a friend, and this friend always said they were going to achieve x, y, and z, but never even gave it a real go, or every time there was a gathering or event that they were invited to they turned up late, how much would you believe

Have you ever heard of the old saying, “Money won’t make you happy”? Well, as cliché as it is, it’s the truth. Yes, it can alleviate a lot of pain and suffering. It can pay for healthcare, move you to a safer location, and remove a lot of

This is a term that I came up with at the back end of last year when going through something unpleasant, and it’s something that current events have brought me back to. Prospective - expected or expecting to be the specified thing in the future. Hindsight-  understanding of a situation

Imagine a world where you spend less time doing something, but get more out of it. Well, that world exists, and it’s called the flow state. As far as superpowers go, the flow state is probably the closest thing that any of us are ever going to be able

“Everything you want is on the other side of cringe”. Coming from the UK, it’s standard to mock, judge and otherwise take the piss out of others who try to do something with their lives. Crabs in a bucket, as it were. If you don’t already know, put

Microdosing is “the action or practice of taking or administering very small amounts of a drug in order to test or benefit from its physiological action while minimizing undesirable side effects.” Mostly used with psychedelics like LSD or psilocybin (magic mushrooms) to get the lower-level positive effects like focus,

We all procrastinate, we all delay and put off tasks we can’t be bothered to do. But what if procrastinating was causing more damage than simply wasting time? I was thinking about snoozing your alarm, and how on the surface it may look harmless, however, it can actually be

I recently sat on a train on my journey home from the office and the sun was shining in my face through the window. I let off a slight smirk when I realised that this was the first time I could actually see the sun when travelling home after work,

I’m a big fan of the saying “How you do the small things is how you do the big things”. It explains that nothing is ever truly “small” enough that it grants you permission to slack off, and that if you don’t stay consistent with who you want

Many people like to roll their eyes at someone who delves into a "Self-improvement" journey, as though it were a cringeworthy pursuit. And although it’s often taken too far, with the likes of ridiculous morning routines, it’s still, at least to me, non-negotiable. I

Two things have happened in my life recently, the first being finally feeling as though I’m headed in a direction that feels right, and thoughts of whether I’m chasing the wrong things have disappeared. The second is re-reading a book called “Rewire Your Mindset” By Brian Keane,
