When I first started this blog, I tried to write three blog posts a week. When I couldn’t keep up with that, I decided to write two posts a week. Eventually two became one, and one somehow became… None. I wish I had a reasonable excuse for this, but I don’t. One day I just [...]
Picture this: it’s the end of the day, you’ve had dinner, you’ve showered, and you’re ready for an early night. As you snuggle into your blankets, you think about watching the next episode of so-and-so on your laptop. Before you know it it’s well past midnight, you’re fallen down the rabbit hole of Netflix, and [...]
Last week I didn’t write in my blog at all. I meant to – I just didn’t. I’m a bit disappointed with myself. You see, I was doing my best to commit to writing two posts a week, and for the first time since I began this blog earlier in the year, I didn’t. I [...]
I used to think I was terrible at prioritising. There are just so many things that we’re supposed to do – eat healthy, sleep for at least eight hours every night, exercise regularly… I always assumed I was incapable of making myself do these things. I was prepared to accept myself as someone who was [...]
If you’ve been reading my blog from the beginning you’ll know that I’ve been having a hard time finding my first full-time job – especially following my graduation earlier this year. I’ve known that this is a difficult stage in a person’s life – after all, every acquaintance I’ve made in recent times has mentioned [...]
Image sourced from ivorymix.com Hello all, Today’s post is going to be a short one. For the second time in two weeks, I’ve fallen sick. My head hurts, my throat aches and all I want to do is sleep. It’s not a lot of fun – though I’m sure that’s a rather obvious statement. Although [...]
Image sourced from ivorymix.com Do you ever have days where you have a whole bunch of stuff you've planned on doing, but you somehow don't manage to accomplish any of it? It happens to me more often than I think it should. One minute it's the morning and the next it's night – and I'm not [...]
Image sourced from ivorymix.com Confession time: I compare myself to others – a lot. I know it’s pointless. I know it’s not good for me. You want to know something? I do it anyway. I can’t speak for every person in the universe, but I’m pretty sure we’ve all been in this position before. [...]
Picture sourced from Ivory Mix. Many people assume that participation awards cause a sense of entitlement and a poor work ethic – but what if this isn't true? The generation I belong to is constantly being criticised. We’ve been called entitled, lazy, self-absorbed – and those are the amongst the nicer terms I’ve heard. We [...]
Image sourced from ivorymix.com Though a highly unmotivated individual, I've still learned some tricks up my sleeve when it comes to goal-setting and achievement. I feel unmotivated a lot – like right now, for instance. I want to have this post up the end of the day, but I’m having a hard time making it [...]
