Welcome To Altiefe

Dear reader,
You are here because you have chosen to read this. Whether this decision was made on impulse,out of interest or boredom you are here.  I write from the perspective of a young man that deals with everything that you feel or have felt - stress, anxiety, crippling self  doubt, lack of motivation, lack of drive - a sense of just existing without purpose. I also feel intense happiness, love and self worth that inspires ideas and expands my existence in a positive way. I decided  that my feelings  will guide my actions if I allow myself to look honestly within to see how they can help me. I've found that deep rooted perceptions, how we look at things influence a multitude of beliefs that we hold that range from how we view ourselves to the world around us. These beliefs can either help our ability to move forward and expand, or they can hinder our progression and allow our ocean of potential to stagnate and evaporate into someone elses ocean  - allowing them to expand and for you to drain into a puddle of 'what could have been.'

Understanding that your perceptions dictate your future is a concept that we all deserve to know. My aim is to use what I  learn throughout my own journey to help you utilize a mindset that can help you to uncover the answers to questions that we are 'supposed' to know but may struggle to definitively answer. Questions such as  'what am  I going to do with my life?', 'where should I be  in ten years?' and 'do I want to go to college/university?'. I am by no means claiming to have the answers to your questions as you already possess them. All I intend to do is help you think about things differently and take the unconventional route to discover yourself and the answers you seek within before you allow someone else to do so for you. We can exist within a predictable framework and make safe choices that ensure a predictable outcome or we can step outside of this framework and delve into rabbit holes that lead to a greater understanding of ourselves.

What you choose to do from here is your decision. Everything is a choice, and it's important to make choices  that have your best interests at heart.  If you've read this and feel that this is not up your street, then that's okay! But those who feel encouraged to read and become  a part of something a little different then I welcome you with open arms to join me on my journey.

Welcome to Altiefe.

(EXPERIENCE) Connect With You: Dealing With Regret

One of the greatest tragedies that I can think of is reflecting on yourself and feeling regretful. 'I wish I did this instead of...' 'I wish I told this person how I REALLY felt...' 'I wish I could have done...' We all experience regret at some point in our lives, and it is at this point that we should look deep into our feelings and question why we walked down a path that we knew deep down couldn't accommodate for our needs and wants. Every day that we are gifted with is an opportunity to learn more about ourselves and our truest, deepest desires and wants. We spend all day trying to impress the same people that evidently do not deserve our energy because they give nothing in return. We spend time developing relationships with these people instead of taking the time to delve deep and meet the purest version of ourselves, unfiltered from what exists outside our being, outside of our expectations. The world that we experience is a result of the fe

(BUSINESS) Altiefe Presents Launching An Idea Part 2: The Passionate Area

Welcome to the second article of this ‘Launching an Idea’ series. In the first article, we looked at identifying a driving force (available to read here ), today we are going to be looking at transferring that driving force over to a passionate area. What is a passionate area? Passionate area: A creative pursuit that a person feels most comfortable and most free to operate within. This is usually a specific area within a wider discipline/creative pursuit e.g. A fashion vlogger . Chances are, if you're reading this article you have an idea of what it is you want to do or where abouts your creative idea is going to be situated – the passionate area is a little more specific, though. To give this article some context, a friend of mine is a fantastic music producer. He can produce a number of different genres of electronic music and has found success in most of them but his main passionate area is within dubstep. Now, some of you may hear dubstep and go ‘yuck!’ b

(EXPERIENCE) What Meditation Has Taught Me: The Importance Of The Present

I have been recently delving into the discipline of meditation. I aim to practice only ten minutes a day, everyday. I would like to share with you perhaps my biggest breakthrough regarding meditation - the importance of the present. As a young creative, I am constantly looking either forwards  into the future visualing my goals or backwards  into the past - learning from my mistakes.  I found that through practice, particularly in guided meditation that I was ignoring arguably the most important time frame - the now . It suddenly dawned on me. In order to bring my future aspirations into fruition I have to examine my actions in the present moment to ensure that they fit with what I aim to achieve in the future . The same applies for my past - in order to ensure that I am learning from any mistake or painful experience, I have to be cognisant of what I am doing in the now to ensure that I am truly implementing changes from what I have learned from the past into my present day ac
