Week 4 (1st -7th September)
Another whole month wiped off the calendar. It feels like it’s going so quick. French philosopher Paul Janet proposed the proportional theory – that as we age one year in our life becomes a smaller portion of our overall experiences, making our life feel shorter as we age. I’m feeling it. Time seems to be…

Turn your clarity in to action
You’re going to need to build the bridge to get to where your heart desires. Knowing what you want is great, now you’veve got to plan how you’re going to achieve it. You’ve decided what you want, you’ve got a newfound sense of energy and motivation. In fact, you’re excited and realise you haven’t felt…

Micro-Productivity; When Life Feels too Complex
Adding something new into my life is overwhelming. I’m already struggling to manage work, family and study. Add in random tidbits like socialising, appointments, reading, baking, travelling adventures (the list goes on). Life is so full. And also chaotic. In saying that, I have plenty of pockets of time that go unused. Or should I…

Week 1 (11th – 17th August)
Resetting doesn’t happen as quick as we’d like! I had to start small. Big dreams can’t happen overnight. I started the week off with a nail-biting race to submit a macro-economics assignment. Yep, yikes! I decided almost three years ago to return to Uni. It wasn’t easy. I was way out of practice of studying.…

Embrace the Journey: Where Do I Start?
Welcome to the Midlife Reset Project I wish I knew where this was heading. I know I want to document my journey. I want to embark on said journey. I want to share that journey so others can be inspired to do the same. Hitting mid-life isn’t the be all, end all. Life’s just getting…
