I am very bad at making decisions. I will over analyze all of the possibilities, and all of the things that could go wrong, and overthink about how I maybe don't know enough or am missing something to make the 'right' decision.

I decided that as there is now less than 2 months left of the year, it's a good point to put some extra motivation behind myself for the different things I … Continue reading The End (of 2019) is Nigh!
The first thing that I have written in my list of gratitudes that I repeat as part of my morning routine is: I am grateful for my continued good health, comfort and opportunities (The next is that I'm grateful for the same in the people I care about.) There are a couple of very important … Continue reading Grateful for my health
I've been struggling a little recently, but this week has been much better than the last few, and I'm finishing it off feeling like next week is going to be even better.
