Let me ask you: Do you want to have a coffee with the most important person in the world? Guess who that is? YOU!

Imagine this; you meet up in a café for coffee and cake with your younger self. You walk towards the table and your younger self is already there, sitting there with a steaming mug of coffee, checking you out while you slowly walk towards the table. What do you notice? It’s a bit nerve-wracking, right? What are you two going to talk about? How do you feel about this conversation that is going to take place? Would your younger self approve of the life you have built, approve your career choices, where you live?

Why do our resolutions not work? The intention to make a change is there. The reason why we tend to fail our good intentions is that they are set from a place of fear and negativity. The secret to making long-lasting change in your life is to create a resolution based on a positive mindset, rather than from fear.

A toxic work environment can really break you mentally and physically. It is especially important to recognise the early signs like; lack of sleep, not eating very well, feeling physically sick when you think about your work, feeling stressed and anxious while at work.
