“(…) Many common allies seem to be the ones related to balance, well-being, and relaxation. Especially clients struggling with stress, burnout, and all-time-busyness can benefit from this inner superhero to tap into a more calm and well-balanced state of being.

These superheroes can be any shape or form, human or an object, or whatever resonates the most with you and represent the power that you need. Let’s look at an example from my own experience: (…)”

“Habits, good or bad we all have them. They form our daily routines but also play a big role in our thought patterns and belief systems. Our brain LOVES doing what it knows to do. It loves running programs that are easy to run because we know them so well.

But once we understand that these programs can be changed, and truly believe we can change them, we will be able to do so (…)”

“(…) But also in the UK, there are around 2 million people affected. They experience a lack of energy, have difficulties focusing, isolate themselves, have irregular sleep, and may even be more prone to health problems. So if you do feel this way, it actually is pretty common.

What is important is that you don’t just ignore these feelings and instead tune into your body and listen to what is going on. Focusing on mental health is anyway important, but during the winter months even more so (…)”

“(…)you will (…) find (…) some nagging thoughts (aka your saboteurs coming in) that may say (…) “oh it’s just this one email”, “ok, you can come for a quick coffee”, or “just one drink”. But what you do in this moment is allow others to step over your boundary, and by doing so you teach them how they can treat you.

And afterward, you may beat yourself up because you couldn’t stick to it and feel even worse about it all (…)”

“(…) Happiness starts and ends with you. You need to learn to be happy 100% without any extra addition of other people, material things, or situations. Once you mastered this, you will truly be happy, and you can trust that no one will ever be able to take it away from you. No challenge or hardship will be able to reduce your base level of happiness, because it is not dependent on it. (…)”

“You may think, “oh no, not another one of these, I have heard my fair share about growth mindset”.

Yet it seems many people and companies are still struggling with properly understanding the concept of a growth mindset. They might preach it, but are not able to practice it. Or they have a false definition of the concept.

Let’s debunk some myths first (…)”

“(…) Forcing employees back after such a long time may create an imbalance in their life and work, and be an additional burden in terms of cost due to the commute and rising cost of living. They may even feel distrusted. These factors can lead to quiet quitting, disengagement, and decreased job satisfaction.(…)”

“(…)Yes, the rules and way we learn from society may be leading to a happy and successful life, if that is your vibe. Some of them I also do agree to make a lot of sense, like striving to have a job to support your life or saving money for your future self.

But what these standards and expectations very much ignore or even judge in a negative way, is that you can have and do all that by finding your unique way of doing things. (…)”

“(…) I am certain the voice is there, in all of us. Some may call it your future self or higher self, intuition, gut feeling, or ancestors giving you advice. It is all correct, use whatever resonates most with you. I am also certain that thanks to societal and external pressures we have learned to be masters in ignoring this inner guidance. (…) Where would it lead you, what would it suggest you do, and do you have the courage to follow it? (…)”

“(…) If we go at it from a mindset of “well it wasn’t meant to be”, we let go of certain expectations and are open for something better to happen. (…)”

“(…) what it got me thinking about is this: If you are an employee who is quiet quitting due to feeling unhappy, demotivated, and negatively about the job you have right now and resigning because you want to get out only, and therefore not seeing a real purpose in the current work, are you potentially blocking great opportunities coming your way?
