Bite-sized bit – What doesn’t kill you does not necessarily make you stronger

“What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” – We’re all so used to this cliché floating around in song lyrics, conversations with well-meaning sympathisers and echoing in our own heads as we try not to drown in the tsunami-ridden waters of life. But have you ever questioned the truth of the statement? Does adversity really make us stronger? I personally don’t believe it does, and I’ll tell you why…

Dedication (not motivation) is the key to success

We are constantly bombarded with the idea that motivation is the key to success. That having a good enough reason to want something will magically provide us with all the willpower we need to propel ourselves over, under or through any obstacle that stands in our way. The most important thing to remember, is that as much as we want to strive for a fantastic future, life happens NOW. This moment is the only reality you have, so enjoy it while it’s here. Appreciate the journey and have some fun along the way!
