I know, I know, this blog is starting to turn into Steven Bartlett's podcast supporting marketing channel. But there's something else that's very interesting that I found out from one of his interviews, and I have to note it down. Last week he invited The Gottman Doctors for a talk, and when discussing solvable and unsol…

Although I'm not as excited now as I first was when I discovered Steven Bartlett and the Diary of a CEO, (mainly because of guests like Jordan Peterson and other such men who think a woman only lives to have children), I have to give it up to Steven for having some of the most educational content online. One very interesting pod…

For me it was a strange concept that your unconscious mind is not always looking out for your best interest. I've always trusted my instinct, I took pride in having a great instinct. ..Boy am I now wondering how many good things I have missed out on! Cause what I've learned this year is that if something doesn't feel rig…

I like to write practical guides about what I know the best. My first two books were about online businesses and online marketing (1st and 2nd edition). But since in 2019 I managed to lose more then 20 kilos which I kept off for more than a year already, I felt it was time for something in this direction. So the result of my 2020 Na…

Another well over 100 movies and TV shows seen so it's about time I write another best movies list, for you the reader to be inspired from, but also for future me - wondering which movie I should re-watch. I like almost any movies and tv shows (but I love comedy crime and dramas in particular) so I am trying to only mention mo…

These days I felt less kind if not damn mad. I really was not nice to a couple of people and even though they might have deserved it, the feeling I had after wasn't nice for me either.  I think that's because it's in our nature to be in harmony, and conflict ruins that for us. The world is what it is; unjust, faulty, &qu…

Manfred Spitzer is a german neuroscientist and psychiatrist who's written a book on digital dementia, called just like that. I've just watched some 3 hours clips of him explaining the main book ideas, and in conclusion, our brains are not computers, they don't crash, but they do downgrade.  80% less brain matter in a fun…

When I was little, a very dear aunt of mine told me about an event that moved her. As she and her husband had some serious health problems that didn't allow for them to work anymore, they were not doing too well with money in general. And on one particular day when things were getting pretty bad, as they were at their last and v…

Did you know doctors study sleep just for 2 hours in med school? Just 2 hours for something that takes up one third of our life. Quite disturbing.. So if you want to know more than they probably do about sleep, go ahead and watch this clip, it's definitely one worth seeing or listening to while you go around your other online ac…

The Science of Well-Being is one of the courses I am taking these days, that might not bore you :)). (To make a small parenthesis, I think I might break a world record of how many SEO courses a person can take, but I love seeing how others explain the subject, what they figured out and what tools they use. But more on that on my …

Even if as an introvert I enjoy solitude, I too know that sometimes loneliness can start feeling a bit painful. That's why I'm putting together this guide for us all, though written with a focus on extroverts in particular, as I can imagine they are going through rough times because of the new reality the Coronavirus quaran…

As the story goes, somewhere in the mountains, a man was walking alongside a road, when another man riding a horse, galloping quickly, left him in a cloud of dust. The man yells at the rider: "Where are you going?" as he appeared to be going somewhere important, but the man on the horse yells back, "I don't know…

Due to some health issues I am currently bed resting a lot, so I have decided to take full advantage of the situation to learn something new: software engineering. I've started with taking Harvard's online course "Introduction to Computer Science" and one hour in I am already having some pretty interesting ideas…

Two years ago I was in awe when I found out about Koko , the gorilla who learned to talk using sign language. Penny Patterson was already talking with Koko for 45 years when I found out about her initiative. But we're living in faster communication times now. So it took me just a couple of months (since her Instagram was up a…

So I haven't yet told you how the Halloween trip to Bulgaria went, and we're already more than one week in November. But iiiiit's finally heeeere, the weekend when I don't have that much to do and actually have the time to post something on the blog again, so let's do it, let's catch up. By the way, if you…

Why is it so hard for me to write a book? I mean.. writing this, and every other blog post, just jumps from my mind, onto the keyboard and into the screen in just a couple of minutes. I know exactly the type of books I want to write. The style I mean. I loved the Bridget Jones diaries, I am a fanatic for Agatha Christie's book…

J K Rowling's plans - just because I needed a picture and someone else might find this interesting to see Okay, so this is one of my complicated thoughts but I am trying to write it down, just because I am sure I'll find it interesting in the future when I'll read it again. You know how when writers and other kin…

When I was little I simply found it funny how my father couldn't tell the colour of his shirts and how my mother had to guess what clothes he was asking for. Then, as I grew, it became more and more intriguing - how could he drive when he can't see the green or red lights? Can he see my mother's red hair? What does the w…

I think I got this images from an article on Bored Panda that presented illustrations for people with mental health problems. It kind of shocked me how some of the things I try to do, like maximising the potential of every day (and of every hour, if possible) might be a red flag.  I joke about having anxiety all the ti…

11, 111 and so on, were always something like lucky charm numbers for me and a sign I was in the right place at the right time. Soon I will be turning 33, an age I kind of look forward to. It happens I'm in a real good moment in my life, with great jobs and daily social relationships I enjoy, taking better care of my health t…
