(EXPERIENCE) Do Not Serve From An Empty Vessel: A Thought For The Day

In order to positively impact those around us, we have to prioritise our own happiness.

I know,  it sounds selfish and counter productive but how can you expect to change somebody and their state when your wellbeing is ignored?

Many people believe that serving others willingly and ignoring their own needs, wants and wishes is the key to peoples respect and admiration. In many cases, this is totally false.

In order to truly help people, you must first help yourself. Why do you choose to continually help someone that gives nothing in return? Why do you continually work yourself to the point in which you have no energy for YOU, let alone other people?

If you truly wish to help other people, take the time to help yourself by investing energy, time and commitment to YOUR wants, needs and wishes.

You cannot serve from an empty vessel.

Welcome to the first article of the launching an idea series! This series is designed to help you develop your creative idea from scratch.

What Is Masculinity?

It has recently become an interest of mine to explore the question “what is masculinity?”. Masculinity has long been associated with power, dominance, and authority but often, these components are in reference to   particular groups of people.

This is sometimes referred to as "hegemonic" masculinity (although the term and it's ideas are  a lot more complex once you read further in to it).  There are however many other forms of masculinity that identifying men use to express themselves.

So to clarify, whilst hegemonic is largely viewed as the dominant form of masculinity, it is not the only form that exists.  Often though, men try to emulate dominant i...
