Are You Depressed?
How do you know if you are depressed? How do you discover your stress level? I am going to give you a very simple test to find out the answer to this question. Let’s get started. Ready?
Take a look into your home, how does it look? Is it messy or clean, organized?
The way your house look tells a lot about your mental state. A cluttered house is linked with a cluttered mind. A clean house, on the other hand, means a clear mind. Cleaning and mental health are connected, it gives you a sense of control over your life. By cleaning and organizing the space you live in, you’ll discover better stress management in your day-to-day life – research proves it. If you postpone house cleaning for more than 2 weeks, this is when you can spot the very first sign of depression. In severe depression, this aspect can go on for months or years.
By creating a habit of decluttering will help you also manage your depression better. It works every single time when you need to boost your mood, to relax your mind. Having a mood boost will help you focus more on what you want to manifest and act on it.
Try it, when feeling low start cleaning your home, you will be amazed by how powerful this little trick is. You might say that you already have someone taking care of this part, even so, I am sure you’ll find something to organize yourself (books, old papers, even old memories that don’t make you feel good). If you want to take it further, search for Marie Kondo’s decluttering method, or the KonMari method – is mind-blowing and will give you a deeper meaning of cleaning.
Very soon I will have the guide called How To Face Depression available on my website. In this guide, you will discover lots of valuable information about how to actually do it. I am sure this guide will make a huge difference in your life, all you have to do is to practice what I suggest – I will even teach you how to get the desire to act on it.
Have a great week!
Manifestation Is NOT Woo-Woo
How many of you tried to raise their vibration, do shadow work, inner-child healing, and so on? Just to get what you want, to attract better things in life… I am one of those people. Until I realized that all comes down to my actual internal state. Let me explain more.
Your internal state is triggered by your emotions, beliefs, reactions, actions… which leads to your manifestation in the end. Remember, you’re manifesting always.
To change your internal state you don’t need all of this, ALL you need is self-awareness and action to change. Otherwise, you may get trapped in these never-ending steps just to reach your goals. No need for all of this.
Do you dream of having a new life? What does that mean to you? Better relationships, better health, better friends, better opportunities, a new business, more confidence… you can have anything you desire as long as you focus and act on it. How? By changing your self-concept about what you want! This is where your focus should be always.
You don’t get what you want in life. You get WHO you are! Repeat.
If you think you are unlucky, this is what you’ll receive, opportunities where you’ll feel unlucky; if you think you’re confident, you’ll get opportunities to reflect that belief. This applies to anything in life.
Self-concept is the key! This is where you start.
Become aware of your internal state, your self-talk. How do you usually react to life? Set your desired intention, get clear about it. Listen carefully to your inner conversation, always.
If you feel you resonate with my words and you want personalized support further, let’s have a short free consultation and see if we’re a match.
When You Doubt Yourself
Doubts come from past events. Every time something happens you associate it with a past event when you didn’t choose the right solution.
What you have to understand is that even “bad” choices are there to teach you something. When you get this, you will only take the lesson and don’t associate every similar event with that outcome you once had.
As I always say, you can’t change a past event, but you can change the perspective, how you look at it, to make it work in your favor.
Doubts are created by low self-confidence, because of past events as I explained earlier. Know that this is something we ALL experience.
The faster you accept it the sooner you can get started and make it work for you and your needs. All good things start with an equilibrate self-confidence.
To release your doubt identify the root cause of it. What is it that makes you feel uncertain?
Do you have doubts when it comes to taking a decision? When it comes to focusing on your business plan? You’re in doubt about your next meeting? Before giving a speech? Before making an investment? Or even when you have to choose between outfits?
If so, this is a strong signal that you need to pay attention to your self-esteem.
Doubt is a strong belief rooted in your subconscious mind. The good news is that you can change this belief, like any other limiting belief.
Start by replacing this belief, by working with yourself. For example, if it’s an outfit issue, start saying to yourself that you’ll look amazing no matter what you decide to wear. Or if it’s a doubt before a meeting, say that you have all the necessary skills for this meeting, and all will work out just fine.

SELF MOTIVATION
Let’s talk about self-motivation today. Read until the end, I have a challenge for you.
Being able to motivate yourself when facing an issue is very powerful. By doing so, will enable you to actually find the courage to move further faster. It also builds self-confidence and eventually, you’ll get the solution you’re looking for.
How to motivate yourself?
The first step, acknowledge your issue and accept it. Don’t ignore it, talk about it, or even exaggerate – people tend to exaggerate anyway and make a problem worse than it actually is.
The second step, after you’re done expressing your issue, the self-motivation steps in. Say nice things to yourself while looking in the mirror. When you’re observing yourself in the mirror you recognize your deeper self, anything you say while looking in the mirror is more powerful.
You can imagine you’re talking to a good friend – in the end, you have to learn how to be a kind friend with yourself first. You can say:
All of this is going to end in my favor in no time. Everything is going to be fine. I am in control always. I know I can handle this situation no matter what. Give yourself a smile at the end.
You can repeat the positive statements a few times, it will change your mood.
When you practice self-motivation in the mirror (can be out loud or in your mind) it might get emotional, you may even cry. It’s ok… It’s the same feeling as if you would see an old friend after a long time and you’re happy about it. This is exactly what is happening, you realize for how long you have ignored yourself.
Self-motivation will grow confidence, will boost self-concept.
In the third step, go about your day thinking about that special moment with yourself to keep a good mood. You will notice a rapid change of perspective about that issue, it will feel lighter.
I CHALLENGE YOU to practice SELF-MOTIVATION every single day for 2 weeks. Start your day like this, have a moment with yourself. Accept the challenge and share it with others, you can make a difference in someone’s life.
Accept The Challenge!
Look in the mirror EVERY morning for the next 2 weeks and say:
All of this is going to end in my favor in no time. Everything is going to be fine. I am in control always. I know I can handle any situation no matter what.
Give yourself a smile at the end.
Looking forward to hearing about your results!
If you need further help I am here for you. Be well!
Why Do You Attract Negative Situations
Have you ever wondered why you keep attracting negative situations when you’re having a bad day? For example, you received some bad news that ruined your day. What do you do next? You keep complaining about it, telling your friend, your family and so on. You keep dwelling on it, in your mind or out loud to people around you. It happens to all of us until we become aware of it.
If you can attract all of this, you can attract anything you set your mind to. It takes practice to stop this behavior, but when you notice how things start to change, is totally worth it.
Next time when you find yourself in this position take a deep breath and don’t react. Replace that negative thought/experience with a positive one until you make a habit out of it. You will see how fast things will start working out in your favor.
Free Will and Emotions
Frustration is a frequent emotion that we experience, can happen from the minor irritation of being stuck in traffic to a major problem of feeling failure when heading towards a goal. Frustration has other deep emotional layers that are the root cause of why is happening.
Fear – of not being able to accomplish your goal faster, of not receiving the help you want because you’re searching outside of you for that help, of rejection…
Guilt or shame – of not raising your standards as everybody else around you expected to, of not being able to accomplish your day-to-day responsibilities.
Anger, anxiety, sadness – because of the listed and unlisted things, minor or major, that you kept fixing and failed in a way or another. This is when frustration comes to surface expressing in ways that you can’t control sometimes.
All because of all the other emotions, feelings, hidden deep inside that were never spoken to someone or written down, to be able to release them. Expressing your feelings to someone you trust, or simply writing it down, can help you release the heaviness you hold inside and avoid unnecessary major stress. After this first step, you can proceed towards self-growth, build more confidence around different situations in your life, move forward, and create the life you want, create your future.
How? Through the power of imagination, of a strong desire, through a cultivated self-trust or self-concept. Through manifestation process in one word.

What Exactly Are Affirmations?
Let’s break it down and have a better understanding of affirmations. An affirmation is a proposition or a statement that is declared to be true. Affirmations are your own words, addressed to self or another person, used with conviction. A statement is made when you know for sure something will happen or is true, and is made to remove any doubt about it. Thoughts you have daily, that you repeat over and over in your head (self-talk) become statements, affirmations, which further translates into manifestation – reality. If you become mindful about it you will notice this experience. Read More
