The world from my little corner
It struck me as, well, not funny, but ironic, that the year that everything went to hell was 2020. That 20-20 vision we always used to indicate perfect perception, then came a year that most of us would like to forget. 2020 has been a year of change, a year of adaptation, a year of…
It’s the end of the old year, and the beginning of the new. Across the globe, millions of people are setting new year’s resolutions for things that they wish to change as we flip our calendars over to 2019. While this is admirable, we also are probably well aware how many times that we have…
I have spoken at length in my articles about the need to push past our fears and barriers so that we can take the steps forward that will take us towards where we want to go. However, while it is important that we have our own motivation firmly in place, we also need to recognise…
This is the first article I have written here for a very long time. Over three years, in fact.

We are all guilty of being our own worst critic. We fight with ourselves, the little voices of fear and hope, whispering in our ears. And when we consider our options in a situation, we often build in our minds the worst case scenario rather than the best case, or even that which is most…
While I have previously discussed how we must be able to adapt to changes in our environment and situation, another we must be ready for is how we ourselves change. As we grow through life, and we accumulate new experiences, they form the framework by which we perceive the world around us. We are not…
Failure. Even the word can put shivers down our spines. The thought of failing can be utterly paralyzing and can prevent us from even trying to achieve something that we know we can do. So why is it that we are so afraid of failing? Is it that we are worried that we will be ridiculed by…
For many people, it can sound a little facetious when they hear someone say to them “Think positive!” They roll their eyes and think that it’s silly. How can trying to be positive change anything?
