5 Ways to make your Mondays Brighter

Let’s be honest with ourselves, many of us hate Monday’s and the reason behind is the load of work that we get from our professors/bosses for the rest of our week. I’ve been in that situation when I wanted to snooze my phone and get to sleep an extra 5 minutes on a rainy or frosty Monday morning Monday, yet duties were calling and all I could do was grab a cup of coffee and up to work.

3 Effective Tips for a Healthier Lifestyle

Since kids, we are taught in schools and outside of it, through articles or blog posts, that if we want a healthy living, we must follow the food pyramid (nutrition) as well as doing lots of sports and thinking positive. At first sight, there is nothing wrong with this plan, yet if we think a little bit deeper as an adult, we will realize that, we actually never were taught how to stick to positive thoughts in certain crisis. When we feel down, we look for something easy to improve our bad mood, thus we turn to alcohol or even worse technology abuse. Of course, that leading a healthy routine is not that easy as it sounds, you must constantly make physical and mental effort, to achieve a result. However, I have come to realize over the years, that there are some tricks in order to have positive vibes or at least lead a healthier everyday living and for this reason I would like to share with you today these ideas.

Andreea Apetri

Ever been in that situation where you had to choose between following your dream and the actual reality? Where you wanted something, but were afraid to start in the very first place, because you were influenced by words of others like: “that profession is in extinct” or “with what money will you live if you do that job?”. Well, dear reader, I’ve been in that situation, were I thought that skipping my dreams, in the very first place would bring me joy and recognition from others. That hurting and sabotaging myself, just to create an image for my family and colleagues, costed me a lot and I would give everything back to start from the beginning.

To-Do List for 2021

Phew, we made it! We officially entered a New Year and we precisely wished ourselves to be ‘Our Year’, yet nonetheless some of us are still questioning themselves if it’s worth investing in a new Planner? If it really makes sense planning in advance or will 2021 be again the Pajama Year?

A different kind of Holiday Season

Starting with Easter and closing it up with New Year.

How did Quarantine change my Perception on Life?

I’ve always wondered why did many people perceive Freedom, as an act of going out for a coffee or to a party? I remember in March, when everything shut down for a couple of months due to Covid-19 and people being upset as why their freedom was “stolen”. It occurred to me only today, that actually people were never free in their thinking, they just pretended to be. Many people think that freedom is just going out with your friends or attending social gatherings, yet this word has a more complex meaning. In the Oxford Dictionary freedom means the power or right to do or say what you want without anyone stopping you and I think that this is true as long as we respect some ground rules.

Anyway, I don’t want to make a spoiler, yet I want to share with you, some ways in how to see challenges as an opportunity and not as a threat.
