  • Monthly update, April 2018 personal journal Monthly update, April 2018

    It was an interesting month. It passed by quickly though, like other months too. I get the feeling that the time is accelerating. Or maybe its because we live busy lives, not always focus on what's essential for us.

  • Slow and low July 2017 personal journal Slow and low July 2017

    Summer in London is different than in Poland - I guess, it's more bearable. Not so much extreme weather changes, not freaking hot, which is good for living in the city. This month passed quickly, again. Let's look into July in my quick, monthly retrospective.

  • Can't believe it is already summer, June 2017 personal journal Can't believe it is already summer, June 2017

    Just 2 days ago I went for a run on a warm and sunny afternoon and this thought struck me. It's already July and that means we're already in the 2nd half of the year. Amazing, how the time flies. If you care enough about what I do and think, stay with me for my monthly update.

  • A month in review, February 2017 personal journal A month in review, February 2017

    Can't believe it's been another year. This one was busy and quick. Even though a lot happened somehow I feel like I've missed it. This is almost the last day of 2016 and I sit here now, in London and look back to reflect on what happened, what did I achieve and what I can do better in 2017.

    You've probably noticed that I've been silent for about last month... If you waited for another _reading list_ episode - sorry, I'll return to posting from October. There were many things going on and even more will come.

  • Keeping the fire burning personal journal Keeping the fire burning

    Sometimes it's easy to loose the focus. I get it all the time. One week is great, then next one feels like a two steps back. Sometimes good, sometimes hard. What is important, is to keep pushing forward.

  • Fighting my demons personal journal Fighting my demons

    This entry will be different. It has been a long time struggle for me and all the time I thought that I’ve got this. That I have it under control and I’m making progress. But it’s not entirely true and here is why.

  • Slow but steady, February winter edition personal journal Slow but steady, February winter edition

    Sometimes the journey is slow. Sometimes it’s just feels like you’re in the same place. If you’ve ever felt this way, then welcome. This month was just slow. I mean, it wasn’t nothing. There was lot of work, some training here and there but no big progress. Let’s take a look and see why

  • Resolving resolutions personal journal Resolving resolutions

    One year ago I wrote about some of my resolutions for the upcoming 2014. Even though it seems like everyone is bashing new years resolutions, we may call them differently but we all have them. So last year I posted here four points. Let’s see how I’ve got them.
