Are You Happy?

July 12, 2021July 12, 2021by Olivia30 Comments

To be happy, is something that alot of us strive for in life. Being happy (at least to me) is more than just an emotion, its a feeling too. I feel like as people, we chase happiness in almost everything we can find. Relationships, material items and experiences. When true happiness can only really be felt within. Did you know that 3 out of the 4 main emotions we feel as humans are negative, and only one is positive? Happy, sad, afraid and angry. So it’s no wonder we find it hard to be happy all of the time.

How To Turn Your Blog Into a Business

July 7, 2021July 22, 2021by Olivia26 Comments

Turning a blog into a business is not an easy task. I remember when I first started blogging, I had no idea that I could make money from my website. And when I had my first opportunity to make some extra cash it was life changing. I couldn’t believe that this little website could provide a small amount of income for me. Money and blogging really can go hand in hand if you know what you are doing. And, like many other bloggers I for sure winged it and went into the business side of blogging with zero experience.

10 Pieces of Life Advice From 10 Different Bloggers

June 28, 2021June 28, 2021by Olivia26 Comments

Growing up and even now, I really appreciate life advice. Somebody taking time away from their lives, to share their wisdom with me is so special. Often times I have long, in depth conversations with friends about things we have experienced in life and how we learnt from each individual experience. Learning about others mistakes, and others accomplishments really helps to pave a path for us. Never under estimate the importance of sharing and gaining knowledge from other people. We like to think we can do things alone, but thats not really true.

If the last year has taught me anything, it’s that there is Joy in every single day. Even if its something small like seeing a cute puppy, or waking early enough to watch the sunrise. This past year has really helped to put things into perspective for me. Not everyday will be great, but there is always great in everyday.

10 Ways To Appreciate Others More

June 7, 2021June 7, 2021by Olivia27 Comments

I don’t know about you, but this year especially I have come to appreciate the people I have around me. With everything happening with the pandemic, it has reminded me that life is fragile and can be taken away at any moment. There is still so much turmoil and hate in the world, and I don’t think there will ever be a time where we are all unified as one race. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t things we can do to show our love and appreciation for others.

Showing love to others doesn’t need to be big and elaborate, it can be a small act of kindness or a small gesture in some way to brighten someones day. In todays post we’ll go through some ways you can show those around you that you appreciate them. Depending on your own love language, you might already do some of these things. But I thought it would be a good idea to spread some love and positivity into the world today, because boy do we need it.

June 3, 2021June 3, 2021by Olivia17 Comments

Something I have yet talk about on my blog is the exciting new adventure I’m on, of starting the process to buying my first home. I have gone back and forth about the idea of being a home owner alot over the last few months. But with the current state of the renting market, it makes way more sense to buy instead of rent. Covid has had such an impact on real estate, its really crazy how high the prices are at the moment.

These 3 Things Helped Me To Be Happier

May 29, 2021November 1, 2023by Olivia31 Comments

One of my main goals in life is really to be happier. So often we go through life and go with the motions and forget about how important happiness is. If you aren’t happy, you’ll find so many other things in your life don’t align. I remember as a child being so happy and content with life, and I know I am lucky to have experienced that because so many didn’t. And sometimes, I wish I could go back to my child mind and find happiness in the small things again.
