It’s not always You - the World can make you feel unwell too There’s those of us on the introverted side, who tend to be more sensitive and agreeable, and who have a tough time adapting to the aggressive entrepreneurial commandments of our age. And unless we figure out how to turn our sensitivities into some kind of a product, we’re made to feel pretty da...

Yes, achieving your goals is important. But so is living your life:

Feel a bit crappy? Go for a walk:

Feel sh*tty? Go for a walk Yes, I know what you’re thinking, you’re not 80 years old, so you’re most definitely not going to go for a fu***ng walk, besides, you’ve got things to do, people to see, shows to watch, kids to raise, partners to satisfy and litter boxes to clean.

All fears can be challenged... Even the Fear of Death:

Anxiety and the Fear of Death It looks exactly how you’d think it would look; a decrepit little shack sitting in the middle of an abandoned theme park, with nothing but eerie silence...
