At worst, when we compare ourselves to others we end up focusing our energy on bringing them down instead of raising ourselves up.

How To Focus On Yourself

  • Think of anything you want to achieve. Learn and practice that.
  • Learn to know yourself. Observe your thoughts 💭.
  • Make your self care plan like having a coffee ☕ or tea 🍵, set a good and healthy diet, make excercise regimen or take a stroll in your surroundings to enjoy nature, listening to music etc, read a book 📖.
  • Have a journal for brain dump.

Or you can do a lot of things just to focus on yourself and learn from everyone. Try not to things personally. Its all about mindset.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Great for quick bits of information and interesting ideas around whatever topics you are interested in. Visually, it looks great as well.

Brilliant. It feels fresh and encouraging. So many interesting pieces of information that are just enough to absorb and apply. So happy I found this.

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
