How Your Small Daily Habits Lead to Big Change

We live in a world, where we easily find ourselves being obsessed with quick fixes and instant gratification, and the idea that small daily habits can have a profound impact on our lives often goes overlooked. Yet, the truth is, it’s not the grand gestures twice a year that bring about lasting change, but rather the small, consistent actions we take every day. These habits, when repeated consistently over time, can lead to transformative results, and can shape our future for the better. Let’s dig into this a bit further… The Compound Effect of Small Habits One of the most compelling reasons to focus on small daily habits is the power of the compound effect. This concept, popularized by Darren Hardy in his book The Compound Effect, highlights how small, seemingly insignificant actions, when repeated over time, can lead to significant outcomes. Consider the simple habit of learning a new language for 15 minutes every day. At first, it might not seem like much. But over a year, that adds up to 91 hours of …

How to outgrow yourself

”Stop shrinking to fit places you have outgrown.” Change is not always easy, but necessary. Stop playing small, challenge your comfort zones and release limiting beliefs holding you back from evolving. It’s time to put yourself in the driver’s seat. First things first, you need to start identifying the limiting beliefs that are holding you back. Limiting beliefs are like invisible chains that keep us from reaching our full potential. These are the thoughts and assumptions we hold about ourselves and the world that prevent us from taking risks, pursuing our dreams, and living the life we truly desire. They can manifest in various forms, such as ”I’m not good enough,” ”I don’t deserve success,” or ”It’s too late for me to change.” If you’ve ever found yourself stuck in a rut, unable to move forward despite your best efforts, these beliefs might be the root cause. What Are Limiting Beliefs? Limiting beliefs are convictions that we hold to be true, but in reality, they are merely perceptions influenced by past experiences, societal expectations, or …

Dear September…

… and my heart melted. ”While some people like to dance underneath the stars in June, others like to play with the red leaves of September, And I’m blissfully, wholeheartedly stuck in the middle.” … And like the wisest of them all, you’re letting go of what no longer serves you. Your brisk wind makes everything rejuvenating. The days; alluring and brightful, the nights; dark and calm. I see a star waiting to be born, intentions waiting to be established, a nature waiting to be cherished, and a life waiting to be lived.  September is for watching red leaves falling. Creating space. Caring for oneself, and others. Just like nature, we transform. Becoming whole, empowered and complete. Putting positive intentions into everything we do. Silently witness the beauty of nature – notice how seductively and effortlessly she’s unfolding her treasures. Fearless. September is for enjoying the darkness, as well as the bright light within. It’s for grasping opportunities. Looking within for happiness, success and courage. Sometimes the things we want the most are closer than we think. …

Why the Early Hours Hold so Much Potential

”Elevate your mornings – elevate your life.” Imagine starting your day with energy, clarity, and purpose—each morning a new opportunity to set the tone for a successful day. I truly believe mornings are magical, and hold the key to unlocking a more meaningful life, yet many of us hit the snooze button, missing out on the transformative potential that is hidden within the early hours. However, elevating your mornings isn’t just about waking up earlier; it’s about consciously designing a routine that aligns with your goals and well-being. By doing so, you can start to elevate your entire life. The Science Behind Mornings Why then do mornings matter so much? Research shows that our willpower and decision-making abilities are strongest in the morning. This is when our minds are fresh and anew, and we have the most control over how we spend our time. When you create a morning routine that prioritizes your well-being and personal growth, you’re more likely to make choices that benefit you throughout the day. Designing Your Elevated Morning Routine Creating …

How to Elevate Your Life

”Life isn’t about finding yourself, it’s about creating yourself.” Before stepping into your elevated self you need to take a moment to cherish and forgive the past version of yourself; the version that does not serve you any longer, the version that you have outgrown. Maybe there are things in the past that you are not proud of; decisions you wish you had not made and plans not working out the way you hoped for. However, without these experiences you would not be where you are today. Everything you have gone through has taken you to this very moment. So, please forgive yourself for being too hard on yourself, for always judging your actions and whereabouts. You are exactly who you are meant to be right now. All is well in your life. And now when we have cleared that out… It is time to step into your elevated self. 1. First things first, become clear about the limiting beliefs and blocks that are holding you back from achieving your potential and stepping into your …

The importance of staying true to yourself

In a world that constantly tells us who to be, what to wear, how to think, and what to aspire to, staying true to yourself can feel like a radical act of rebellion. Yet, it’s the most fulfilling path to inner contentment and genuine connections. ”Embrace who you are at your core and let it shine forth in every aspect of your life.” But what does it mean being authentic? Authenticity means being honest with yourself and others about who you are, what you believe, and how you feel. It’s about aligning your actions with your values and allowing your true self to be seen, even when it’s uncomfortable or inconvenient. First Step: Self-Reflection Authenticity begins with self-reflection. Take time to understand your values, passions, strengths, and weaknesses. Journaling can be a powerful tool for this. For example you can begin to ask yourself questions like: Being Perfectly Imperfect Trying to be perfect will only move you further away from your authenticity. Instead, try to embrace your imperfections and vulnerabilities, and see how it will …

Take your power back

Lately I’ve been noticing how much focus I’ve been putting on the external world. Like if something good happens then I can be happy, and not the other way around; I am happy -> I notice all the good already in my life, or good things come to me. Sometimes I find myself struggling with being happy when nothing fun and exciting is happening. I have been dependent on the outside world to be a certain way in order to be fully content. Hence, now learning to shift my mindset to just being, happy and content with what is, no matter what happens. ”I am exactly where I need to be right now.” – a favorite mantra of mine. Effortlessly existing without the need to chase anything. What is meant for us will come to us, as long as we stay open and take aligned action. However, being patient, is not my strength. Always wanting things to happen now, or even better, yesterday… But I’ve noticed that when I’m consistent with my daily habits I …

Embracing silence

”A quiet mind is able to hear intuition over fear.” In a world that is constantly on speaker mode, or so it seems. Noice, opinions, judgments, the news. Look here, read this, like this, validate me, think this, believe this, be this. Be still. Be aware of what you consume. You can choose what information houses your brain. However, I agree, it can be difficult to find moments of peace and rest when we’re constantly being bombarded with stimuli. But without the comfort of the silence we won’t find the answers we are looking for. You see, the answers you seek, already rest within. If you only took the time each day to simply sit with yourself, to enjoy your own precious company, you would eventually realise the wisdom that lies beneath all those outer, dense layers you have collected throughout the years. I don’t mean that you can’t be inspired by others, and seek stimulation from the external. Of course you can! And you should. Inspiration and worldly experiences are amazing and make us …

Dear July…

… hug me, I want to feel your heart beat. ”Sometimes I’m weak, scared and vulnerable, nevertheless, more often I’m strong, confident and alive. At peace.” July is for chasing dreams. Catching stars. Peaceful, dark summer nights. July is for late evening swims, enjoying the calmness of the sea. The calmness of the heart. July is for creativity, an imagination deeper than ever. The dark, dark sky filled with stars. Filled with hope. July is for believing in the power of nature. The power of humanity. Humid days and foggy nights. July is for beautiful souls searching for inner peace. Inner light. Loving kindness, curiosity and bravery. Everything is temporarily; the dark night, the softness of a new dawn. Flow with the current. Flow with the speed of light. Darling, be the light. Be the love this beautiful world so desperately needs. Find comfort within. Turn inwards, speak to your soul – let it out, let it dance. July darling, we discovered something lately. Something serene, spacious and still. To carry with us. Wherever we …
