So, we’ve almost made it through the first week of March and the daily commute is getting you down. We know the feeling. Even though remote work or work from home opportunities are on the rise, most of the workforce either needs to be physically present to do their jobs or work for a company who has yet to embrace the freedom of working from home. Not to mention all the young ones on their way to school every day of the week. 


Most things in life don’t come free, but every 4 years, on a leap year, we get a whole extra day in the lovely month of February completely ‘mahala’, ‘gratis’, free! 2020 is a leap year, this means we have an extra day to live our life to the fullest. This year, our free day falls on a Saturday, so you are free to do whatever you want with your bonus 24 hours. 


Hit snooze a few times before getting up every morning? Just face it, you’re delaying the inevitable! Getting up and out of bed as soon as your alarm starts blaring is a difficult task for most of us. But how can you change your mindset and become more of a morning person than you currently are?

Food, family and festivities! There’s a reason that first item was at the top of our list. South Africans (but actually humans all over the world) have a tendency to gather around food! And the festive season is no different. Just think about it … what is the first thing that comes to mind when we say Christmas? That’s right … food. Well if it isn’t the first thing it’s probably up there with ‘holiday’ and ‘family’.


Happy New Year! We’ve celebrated and looked onto 2020 with stars in our eyes. But now it is time to get real. You probably made a few new year’s resolutions for yourself. But let’s be honest, did you stick to your 2019 resolutions and do you even remember what they were?
