Commit to noticing the world around you

Commit to noticing the world around you

We have to find the humility to be open to experience every single day and to allow ourselves to learn something. Let yourself go past those thoughts that tell you it’s silly or pointless or a waste of time, or you’re far too busy to possibly do this. 

Instead give yourself permission to want that in the first place — to crave that contact with the sacred, and that feeling of being able to commune with something that’s bigger than you are. First, you must “give in to the fascination” that you feel in everyday moments.

Ask yourself one simple question

Ask yourself one simple question

Start asking yourself questions like: What soothes you?

It might be going on a walk. Or visiting an art museum. Maybe you enjoy watching the shifting clouds.

For some people, that soothing moment might be found in a place of worship, or while staring at the moon.

Contemplate and reflect in your own way

Contemplate and reflect in your own way

The problem wasn’t that we don't try hard enough. It's more about how the rules are created by someone who have never walked in our shoes.

You don't have to follow the same habits of successful people and follow them the exact same way they do it. Like meditation, everyone has a different time and way to meditate. It's not just about clearing your brain. It's about slowing processing all those thoughts which are itching at the back of your head.

Do it because it feels good

Do it because it feels good

People tend to think that seeking pleasure for pleasure’s sake is somehow naïve. We are more likely to assign worth to things that are considered practical and efficient.

You don't need to continue your childhood hobby if it does not bring you joy just because you read a woke article on some website about reawakening your old self. 

It's about doing something because it feels good to you, it soothes your soul and calms your mind. To find the missing piece of yourself in the noise and chaos of the world around you.

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Sean Green

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Ashley Anthony

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!

samz905

Don’t look further if you love learning new things. A refreshing concept that provides quick ideas for busy thought leaders.

Jamyson Haug

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

Laetitia Berton

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!

Giovanna Scalzone

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.

Ghazala Begum

Even five minutes a day will improve your thinking. I've come across new ideas and learnt to improve existing ways to become more motivated, confident and happier.
