Constructive Feedback vs Criticism: Strategies for Growth

Mindset Articles

Why do people feel the need to give feedback in the first place? Often, it comes from a genuine desire to help. Whether it’s a boss trying to improve your performance, a friend offering advice or even a stranger making a suggestion, feedback is usually an attempt to guide, correct or provide a new perspective. The underlying motivation is often to help the other person grow, avoid mistakes or succeed in the future. People feel that by pointing something out, they’re contributing to someone’s improvement. However, how feedback is delivered plays a huge role in whether it helps or hinders.

7 Signs of a Negative Person & How to Deal with Them

When it comes to navigating relationships, whether with friends, family, or colleagues, one of the most crucial lessons I’ve learned over the years is the importance of recognizing the signs of a negative person. It’s something I’ve grappled with personally, especially during times when I felt particularly vulnerable. There were moments when I found myself surrounded by people whose energy seemed to pull me down rather than lift me up. It was as if they were magnets for negativity, and I often felt drained after spending time with them.

How to Deal with Toxic People in Your Life

Psychology Articles

Not everyone goes through life with the same intentions, values and standards as you. It is an inevitable truth of life that toxic people will occasionally show up on our paths. They can pop up any time, sometimes disguised as “friends”, family members, colleagues or strangers. You might think you attracted negativity and toxicity when you are in a lower vibration and state of mind, but in fact toxic people can show up in any of our lives. We can’t control the presence of toxic people in our lives, but we can control how we respond to them. We have to prepare ourselves, and the most important first step in that is to be able to recognize toxic behaviour. Setting boundaries is the essential next step. By prioritizing our well-being, we can minimize the impact of toxicity and protect ourselves from unnecessary harm. Remember, encountering toxic people is not a reflection of your worth or value, it’s simply a part of life’s journey that teaches us valuable lessons about resilience, self-care, and the importance of surrounding ourselves with positivity and support.

Mindset Explained - Masculine Energy Unleashed: Stepping Into My True Nature

Masculine Energy: My True Nature

Lifestyle Articles

I perceive life as a journey, an adventure where I continuously explore new paths and uncover hidden aspects within myself. At times, these discoveries and breakthroughs occur at a rapid pace, while in other periods, there are substantial gaps between them. Our existence on Earth serves as a platform for learning valuable lessons, promoting personal growth and self-development. Life provides precisely the experiences meant for each individual at the exactly the right moment, how you receive and handle these experiences determines if you learned your lesson or not. It’s like peeling off layers of an onion, revealing new ones with each removal. Just when you think there are no more layers, an undiscovered one shows up, demanding attention.

How to Make Friends as an Adult: Battle Against Loneliness​

Lifestyle Articles

It is in human nature to connect and socialize, it is a fundamental need in the core of our being. I believe that it is not about quantity of friends but quality of friendships. This brings me to one of the biggest struggles I’m experiencing in my adult life at the moment: building and maintaining deep, meaningful connections. Nothing stays the same forever, and this definitely applies to friendships. Everyone is developing, changing, and moving all the time. Don’t get me wrong; I consider that a good thing. Change is inevitably embedded in our lives and is part of evolution. “The only thing that is certain is uncertainty”, read that again 😉 With constant change happening within all of us, our needs also change.

A Healthy and Enriching Social Life Without Alcohol

Lifestyle Articles

For me, drinking alcohol was strongly linked to celebrations and having a good time. Whenever there is a party or special event, it is entirely normalized to drink alcohol. This can be casual office happy hours or family gatherings, as if a social event isn’t complete without a toast. It’s so integrated into modern society and every culture worldwide that not participating might raise some eyebrows. Peer pressure can be enormous.

Freud & Jung: The Power of Shadows & Monsters

Psychology Articles

The terms Shadow and Monster were introduced by Freud and Jung. Our shadow side covers those aspects of ourselves that we deny, distancing them to the unknown area of our consciousness. These include unwanted emotions or specific pain points that are perceived as negative. They trouble us, evoke fear and we avoid confronting them. It is important to confront this “monster” and explore the profound messages it holds. Are you brave enough to meet yours?
