A lot of happiness books advise that you should find purpose in your life, help others, stop comparing yourself to others, eat well and maintain your social contacts. But what if you could design it into your life? Happiness by Design by Paul Dolan (behavioural scientist) looks into paying attention to how you act as …
In one of my last few post, I wrote about my conundrum on what should we do with our last legged clothes. I was having a conversation with someone about this and was reminded of this segment that I had previously seen where clothes were being recycled. Everyone, meet Professor Veena Sahajwalla who is turning …
You've booked yourself in for the language exam and now what? Language exams are great to officially test your level, motivate yourself or are needed for job prospects/requirements or university entrance. You probably are familiar with how the test will run- listening, reading, writing then speaking. Each section is timed and follows immediately from the …
I went through another cleaning and decluttering phase in January. I'm that person who has a hole in their sleeping t-shirt (which was once a going into public t-shirt) and still proclaims that it's still good. How many holes are one too many?? Exactly.
