5 EASY WAYS TO BE ACCOUNTABLE THIS YEAR
My initial post heading was to be “new year resolutions and easy ways to be accountable.” But even I do not believe in new year resolutions -I believe in goal settings, crushing set goals, being accountable, working smart (cause working hard isn’t in my dictionary please), and having discipline. Before we move ahead, HAPPY NEW YEAR MY DARLINGS! I hope this year has been going so well for you all, and things are falling in place just how you want it? I decided to take a little break from posting on my social media page to posting here too. But just like most things in life, my break is up,…

There is only one way to avoid criticism: do nothing, say nothing, and be nothing. – Aristotle We all want to be liked, appreciated, or acknowledged by people; especially when we think getting accepted by them will make us feel better about ourselves.

We start living our lives to fit the expectations of others. Here are some tips on how to stop worrying about what other people think of you: Recognize when it happens: To…

Body insecurity is something even the best of us “suffer” from at different points in our lives. From insecurity over our thighs, arm, face, boobs, ass, tummy, weight, height, etc. it’s a long list to make. Personally, I’ve also “suffered” from body insecurities even though I know tips for overcoming them I still have days I struggle with it.

I took some time off the blog because I wanted to create impact, help people in some way even if it’s through my writing.
