Is productivity the ultimate goal?

It must have been about end of last year that I followed a bunch of – let’s call it – female career empowerment Instagram pages. I was missing some drive and thought those accounts have the potential to give me the necessary butt-kick from time to time. Also, what Instagram affine woman in her 20ies doesn’t enjoy to be addressed as a boss babe or female hustler, especially when the message is packed in pretty letters in a pink colored square? 😉

Working part-time = hardly working?

What, you’re working part-time? Are you sick? Do you have a kid? And what do you do with all that free time?

Yes, those are the exact questions I got asked by several people already when they heard I work ‘only’ part-time in my corporate job. I have never really shared this decision with you guys and neither have I updated you on how my life feels now. Am I getting bored? Do I finally have time to tackle all these To-Do’s that were in my head constantly? Am I happy? What are my plans for the future? Let’s look at my part-time corporate girl self: six months in.

Blogging – A Dream Job?

I’m wondering when we reached the point of blogging being seen as a dream job. With ‚Instagrammer’ or ‚YouTuber’ being one of the TOP answers of teenagers when they got asked about their preferred careers and the amount of websites focusing on teaching people how to monetize a blog rising, it seems to me that bloggers are our generation’s popstars. So in case you’re dreaming of a career between parcel deliveries, breakfasts in Paris and fancy invitations this blog post is for you. Is blogging a dream job? And are YOU ready to face this drawbacks of the blogging industry?

How to add more inspiration to your life in 2018 and make magic happen

I am always trying to be 100% honest with you guys and truth is during my Christmas/NYE break I somehow lost the ability to produce written content. I wouldn’t say that I was all lazy during those days but rather that most of the time I was involved in getting done ‘straight forward’ activities such as ‘wrap presents’, ‘prepare documents for tax consultant’, ‘answer this e-mail’, ‘clean apartment’ etc. And these activities were anything but creative or stimulating in terms of inspiration.

Are you taking blogging seriously?

Some days ago I was having dinner with my Mom. It was one of those very seldom evenings when it’s just the two of us and we can finally enjoy some mother-daughter time and talk about all these girly topics. Naturally, we started to talk about blogging (sorry, Mom, I’m just too obsessed 😉 ) when she dropped the statement “I would have never thought, that you’ll keep up blogging for so long. I thought you’ll make 2-3 outfit shots and then you’ll be fed up with it”. I actually wasn’t at all surprised about her opinion looking back at myself when I was still a kid/teenager.
