Here’s what I learned: Planning time out is a must – otherwise the whole point of guilt-free time out is … [Read more...]
Simplify your life and see how far you’ve come
Do you ever look at how far you’ve come? Or are you so focused on what you haven’t done yet that you can’t even see how far you’ve come?

Simplify your life by decluttering your mind
After having been away for a week and feeling some overwhelm with all the new ideas and excitement it generated, I've realised that, of course, I can't do everything until I declutter what's going in my mind.
