What others think of you is none of your business. Walk. Take the stairs. Dance. Move that body as much as you can. Good habits are as easy to form as bad ones. Both take the same effort. The latter ones are more fun, which is why we adapt to them sooner. The only way…
Z – Zen or Zero F’s given? (Finding balance between calm and chaos) #BlogchatterA2Z
Zen or Zero F’s given? The eternal seesaw between ‘let it go’ and ‘let me tell you why this is unacceptable.’ The struggle between meditating with a cup of herbal tea and flipping a table because someone chews too loudly. Finding a balance between calm and chaos is like walking a tightrope – except one…
Y – YOLO, but make it wise (Taking risks without regretting them.) #BlogchatterA2Z
“YOLO (You Only Live Once), but let’s not make it ‘You Obviously Lacked Oversight.’ Taking risks is great – life is too short for ‘what ifs’ – but let’s make them the kind of risks that lead to great stories, not cautionary tales. Jump into the unknown, but maybe check if there is a parachute…
X -X Marks the Spot(Finding wisdom in unexpected places) (Surprise lessons from odd moments) #BlogchatterA2Z
We expect wisdom to come from profound life experiences, ancient books, or the occasional bearded Guru on a mountaintop. But let’s be real – sometimes life smacks us with wisdom when we least expect it, like when we accidentally walk into a glass door or try to microwave aluminum foil (RIP, innocent kitchen appliances). Wisdom…
W – Wisdom comes with Wi-Fi and Google (The Art of Pretend Wisdom in the Digital Age) #BlogchatterA2Z
There was a time when wisdom came with age, experience, and the occasional gray hair. But in the 21st century? Wisdom comes with a strong WiFi signal and an uncanny ability to type “Why do cats judge us?” into Google. Let’s be honest – most of us aren’t walking encyclopedias; we’re just really good at…
V – Validation is Overrated (But I’ll still check the likes) (Wisdom meets Social Media addiction) #BlogchatterA2Z
We’ve all said it at some point: “I don’t care about validation!” – usually right before refreshing our social media feed for the 47th time in an hour. It’s not really about the likes, we tell ourselves. It’s about…well, okay, maybe it’s a little about the likes. We say we don’t care. We swear we…
U – Unlearning the Nonsense(Dropping the lousy advice we were given.) #BlogchatterA2Z
Remember all the advice we were given growing up? It turns out a lot of it was absolute nonsense. Yet, like a stubborn stain on our psyche, it stuck. Well, it’s time to grab some mental detergent and scrub that nonsense right out! Let’s look at some of the worst pearls of wisdom that were…
T – The Truth Hurts (but so do tight jeans) (Some things you just can’t escape.) #BlogchatterA2Z
Ah, the painful inevitabilities of life – harsh truths and tight jeans. Both sneak up on you when you least expect them. The truth? It stings. Like when you realize your “loyal” friend finished the last slice of pizza without asking. Or when your bank balance rudely reminds you that retail therapy wasn’t such a…
S – Sorry, not Sorry (The wisdom of knowing when not to apologize.) #BlogchatterA2Z
We’ve all been there – apologizing for things that don’t actually require an apology. “Sorry for bothering you” (when you are literally just asking a question), “Sorry for the mess” (in your own home, that you live in) “Sorry for existing” (because someone bumped into you). Somewhere along the way, we started handing out apologies…
R – Reality Checks & Other Rude Awakenings (When life laughs at your plans.) #BlogchatterA2Z
They say if you want to make God laugh, tell Him your plans. But if you want to make life laugh? Oh, just get a little too confident. Start thinking you’ve got it all figured out, and watch life roll up its sleeves and say, “Oh, this is going to be fun.” Reality checks are…
