In my last post here, I shared why I stopping posting my Quarterly Goals (and updates) on the blog. It was easily one of the most difficult posts to write for me. Because not only did it involve me talking about things I struggle to admit even to myself, but I was also nervous about…
Why I Stopped Posting Quarterly Goals on My Blog (Among Other Things)
Before I even get into what I want to talk about today, I just want to mention, that this is not something I am really comfortable sharing/writing about, or even acknowledging to myself, to be honest. But I am doing this anyway, because I feel like there might be others struggling through something similar, and me speaking up might…
Crazy Rich Asians – Worth The Hype?
Last year I came across a book called Rich People Problems – it seemed to be the book everyone was reading and talking about – all the time. So naturally I checked it out and realized that it was (unfortunately) the final book in a trilogy (of which the first book was Crazy Rich Asians)….
To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before Movie Vs The Book
Have you ever come across a book that sounded really interesting, but then you just never got around to reading it, because well you possibly got distracted by other equally or more interesting books? For me, that’s exactly what happened with this book/series. I found the premise really interesting, but clearly never interesting enough to…
3 Books to Boost Your Productivity | Productivity Book Recommendations
I am not sure if I have ever mentioned this here, but over the past several months now, I have found myself veering more and more towards non-fiction, more specifically towards books on productivity & time-management, even though I’ve been reading other sub-genres as well. And this is new for me, because while I have always read…

I came across this book while randomly browsing the shelves at my local library, and right there at that moment, without looking it up, reading reviews, or even checking out the blurb, I decided to pick it up. Because let’s face it, this parenting business is hard. And to be honest, this book’s title spoke…
On Finding Balance, And Keeping It | June 2018 – The Month That Was
June was an interesting month for me. Interesting in a very different way though. There was a lot of new territory that I had to tread through – at home, at work, even with my blogs. And to be honest, it made me really really anxious at first, but (somehow, miraculously) I managed to keep…
Why Do You Blog? For Passion or For Profit? #ChattyBlogs
Why do you blog? – It’s a question I have been asked often. And I have answered it multiple times too. Though of-course as time passed my reasons changed and so did my answers. But recently when I was answering this question (for what seemed like the 100th time) the thing that truly stood out…
May 2018 – The Month That Was
I know it’s one of the most cliched things to say, but honestly I felt like this past month of May quite literally flew by within the blink of an eye. Of-course I don’t mean literally (in the earlier sentence) in the literal sense, but hey you know what I mean! That being said, it…
