If you had the chance to live 5 other lives, what you you do in each of them? This was the question that I came across whilst reading The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron. Photo by Possessed Photography on Unsplash Dream big and have fun with this thought experiment. If you're like me, my other …
I've written a few posts on how minimalism has positively affected my life and the direction in life I want to head towards. I think embracing this lifestyle change has obviously been positive for me but I want to touch on the hard part of minimalism. If you're new to minimalism, I wrote a post …
