Stop Binge Watching, Escape for real

A decision has been made to deal with few addictions.

One is netflix.

I decided to transform my addiction to binge watch TV as an opportunity for growth.

I'll reward myself with watching my favourite series after completing a number of hours of chores or more specifically necessary work.

I am aware that Netflix and any other form of addiction is an opportunity to escape from the harsh boring reality of being bound to a box somewhere in a building behind another box when I would like to be outside to feel the sunshine on my skin. I am aware that Netflix and any other form of addiction is an opportunity to escape from the harsh boring reality that I live in the United Kingdom and that there is no sunshine everyday.

Yet, if I want to go somewhere with the sunshine and work in a place where I can be a bit more outside, I need to finish my thesis. there is no other way around it. So I am rewarding myself to face my reality for a number of hours in order to escape in a dream world for a couple of hours at times until I can finally escape....

Are we good friend?

A friend came to visit. She brought flowers and a card. Inside the card, she wrote that I was an amazing friend. To her, at least. It is normal to question yourself on the quality of your friendship and whether or not  you are a good friend to other people, are you doing enough to engage, support, celebrate others when they go through major transition? How much more can you do while racing through life, its responsibilities and distractions? A good tool to use for reflection is the theory of attachment to understand yourself and how your type of attachement impact on the quality of relationships. Have a look and let me know what you think?

Missminimalist , Thank you

I was hooked to missminimalist blogs in the past four days, reading approximately 16 pages of individuals testimonies on how they started and enjoyed their minimalist journey. It opened my eyes on the endless minimalist lifestyles that any of us can implement. I admire the traveller, the spiritualist, the true materialist (as opposed to consumerist), the mindful, the artist, the mum, the dad, the designer who with intention choose to keep the things that add value to his/her life and get rid of the frivolous. Beyond just getting rid of things, there is not participating to our current wasteful society, it is recognising that we are all equal regardless of what we own and finally it is embracing freedom. It is why I love it. I encourage you to have a read/rid, I hope it will inspire you:  http://www.missminimalist.com/

Time to listen

Sometimes our own perspective on life may get in the way of what we understand when others speaks. Pause, breathe and really listen. You may learn something. if you are too busy with your own thoughts, you will not even realise what was said. You will probably misinterpret some important signal. So what to do, Pause, breathe, ask further questions before sharing an informed answer based on fact and not your own imagination
