Ride Southern Winds to your goals

You may have for so long tried to follow the North Star.

It appeared to be the only way to arrive at the destination you are dreaming of.

You made a map of goals to accomplish. You shaped your persona and your tools to drive your boat as best as possible in the sea of opportunities.

And then... Everything is going South.
A rollercoaster of emotions comes your way and before you know it, thunder is here as your cold head focused on your goal meets warm winds from down under.

You do not know how to handle it all.

one advice:

Go South. Ride the winds. The warm and not so warm. Yet keep watching your North Star. You will get there eventually. Do not fight against the warmth of your feelings. They may burn you alive or even worse throw you out off board

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.

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/

The fine line between envy and admiration - A little writing game

Envy (noun) =  a feeling of discontented or resentful longing aroused by someone else's possessions, qualities, or luck. Admiration (noun) =  something regarded as impressive or worthy of respect. It is a human tendency to envy  others for what they possibly represent. The more we think of others, insecurity can possibly sit in. Disconnection between them and us become even more tangible as emotions are embellishing the illusions. The mind is the biggest manipulator we have probably ever met. There is nevertheless a fine line between envy and admiration. It is worth contemplating the true nature of your inner arguments. Admiration by William Adolphe Bouguereau Play a game of multiple iterations with me for a second. Pick a pen and paper First Iteration - Start with I am envying this person (name) because - write why you envying this particular person - Ask yourself if you know or saw the whole truth about this person's life - Pause Second iteration - Replace I am envying ...
