Don’t Change Yourself. Improve Yourself.
Can I ask you something? How well do you know yourself?
Sometimes, it doesn’t even matter how good your self-awareness is. You might know yourself, but you’re not BEING yourself. Sounds familiar?

4 Rules To Achieve Inbox Zero And Stress-Level Zero
Do the emails, that pile up in your inbox, give you stress? Well, you’re not the only one. Many of us HATE email and can never get to inbox zero. And at the same time, we also can’t live without it.
Why do we hate email? You know, sometimes you get an email that just shoots up all your stress, anxiety, and overall nervousness levels. Shit like “URGENT” or “NEEDS SOLUTION” really creeps me out.
I love all caps, but mostly in a sarcastic way, and not in a “do this right now or I will go ape shit on you” way.
