Best friend and worse enemy
A lot of the times the easiest is to blame other people. Or to depend on other people. We become someone’s victim. We dedicate our beautiful life on revenge. We deprive ourselves from happiness holding a grudge. We love someone too much and we sacrifice things for them. We depend on someone’s attention and validation…

Humans are no frogs
This sounds like stating the obvious no? Humans are humans. Frogs are frogs. Why would a human want to be a frog? For the leaping. Humans crave quick results and instant satisfaction. They would do anything to skip a step of growth. To jump straight into satisfaction without the pain. Funnily, “pain” in French is…

Generous hearts
In moments humanity lets me down with the darkness of its evilness and stubbornness my mind tends to travel to moments I have experienced kindness and generosity. It seems as though my mind needs something to hold on to. A reminder not all is bad even though it seems that way. I grew up in…

The other people
Psychologists, zen gurus or just older wiser people who have some things figured out, you will hear them all say not to care about other people’s opinion of you. Yet, entire industries, capitalism itself and social media are money making machines relying on our need to compare and get approval. So can we survive such…

Brain power or not
I was extremely tired the other day. Also quite low on mood. I had a dance class booked in the evening. My body knew. As the day was progressing I could sense that I am not tired as such, mostly depleted, some sort of emotional fatigue. My body started nudging my mind: out of the…

Back in the day it was just the only place where work could be done. No alternative. So let’s take the office from any productivity pedestal to begin within. However, the…

Does anything happen for a reason?
You know, something really bad happens. There is the crying, the disappointment, the despair even. We are so scared of these emotions, we hate having them so much so we resort to words of consolation like “everything happens for a reason”, “the universe prepares you for something else and better”, “watch out for the silver…

When is the CEO to blame?
I wonder some times about all these failed companies out there or even more so the unsuccessful but not yet failed companies out there. They do all the restructurings, the redundancies, the reorganisations, the desperate M&As. Lives are affected, economy is inevitably shrunk and those who are left behind in the troubled corporate obviously carry…

Trust is luck?
Why do we trust? Whom do we trust? Why it hurts so much to be betrayed? Is this just a random game of possibility? Could maths be the answer? Of course, there are the people who trust no one. Ever. This is safe but I guess lonely or even dysfunctional. There are those who put…
