All You Need to Know About Emotional Regulation – Part 1
Emotional regulation in a nutshell, is the self-awareness and effective management of our own emotions and how these project onto others.
The Grateful Leader
Saying thank you has a powerful effect. Of course we get paid for the work we do daily, but being seen, heard and acknowledge with gratitude and appreciation is what we all as human beings aim for.
never hold on to a thank you I can give because I know how much positive impact it can have on the recipient and the world needs more grateful people.
What Does It Mean To Go All In?
Going all in doesn’t mean we must do or die, it means we must create a strategy that allows us to maximize our potential, identify the support we need, identify the skills we must develop, while ensuring our well-being is not an afterthought and therefore keeping us sane.
The Power of Embracing the Struggle
Growing always carries with it its proverbial growing pains. Yet a lot of people want a plug-&-play solution without going to the process it takes to get it….without paying the price. Yet, there’s such beauty that can be found in the struggle…
The True Perfectionist
I have stopped using perfectionism as a crutch to justify my fear of criticism and my lack of self-confidence, and instead have combined my love for continuous improvement to put out great, imperfect work each day and keep working consistently into perfecting my craft.

Yet, we can never approach it with a plan B at hand, that right there means we have accepted defeat before even launching.
The Importance of Building Your Tribe
As human beings we were created for community, so we crave it. However, having the right people around us makes a world of difference. If we take into account the law of averages, meaning that the result of any given situation will be the average of all outcomes, then the famous quote from Jim Rohn “we are the average of the five people we spend the most time with” has lots of veracity in it.
What Builds Self-Confidence?
I’m a firm believer on the power of compounding and little daily wins over time, turn into huge conquered mountains. One example of this is the book I wrote. I put down ideas, an outline, concepts, quotes for a period of months. I copied and repasted my ideas, moved them around and reframe them, but I also deleted chunks of paragraphs. Yet from all the brain dumps I had over a period of nine months, a cohesive structure for my book was born. Writing a book sounds like a huge goal to achieve, yet writing a few paragraphs each day, was super manageable.
