I feel its totally natural to sometimes fail and to grow with this setback. Failure is strongly connected to weakness, lack of willpower and imperfections. When people fail to reach their goals it’s often dismissed as something they have to blame...

Art and it’s emotional value
I stumbled across this TED Talk held by Nora Atkinson, Lloyd Herman Curator of Craft at the Smithsonian American Art Museum. Since I studied Art History in my BA, I’m somehow still connected to art and try to keep me updated on the scene. Which actually is super hard since the art world has become so global and therefore huge. Atkinson presents pieces of...

Personal Issue: Why we always want more but always have less time | Warum wir immer mehr wollen, aber immer weniger Zeit haben
I think we live in a society, where everyone quickly becomes unsatisfied. Maybe some have noticed, others not. Sometime ago I stumbled upon an article published by Die Zeit (a German newspaper). The article focuses on the dissatisfaction in our society and why the happiness level is exploited at a certain point. But where does this dissatisfaction come from? Do we have the right...

Personal Issue: Entscheidungen treffen
Tagtäglich werden wir damit konfrontiert Entscheidungen zu treffen. Dabei variiert die Wichtigkeit und Dringlichkeit der Entscheidungen. Sei es die Wahl beim Shampoo oder welchen beruflichen Weg man zukünftig verfolgen will; eine Entscheidung muss stets getroffen werden. Und oft fällt es uns schwer, eine zu treffen. Einer Studie zu Folge fällen wir rund 20.000 Entscheidungen täglich, oft unbewusst und blitzschnell. Noch nie konnten wir so...

Personal Issue: What makes Christmas so special to me?

When the year is coming to an end, we are just overloaded with things. Buying presents and setting up the holiday plan has to be squeezed in between all those dates.

Personal Issue: About being a university student and why it doesn’t fulfill me
Today I want to open up to you about a topic which has been on my mind for quite some time. And yes, the title already spoils it all. In 2012 I started to study Art History and Theatre science at the Freie Universität Berlin. Directly after finishing school I became a university student. My start wasn’t that great since just five days after...

Staying in Leipzig: Downtown Apartments Leipzig

Which is why there have been plopping up so many new renting concepts around various cities. About a week and a half ago, a friend and I took the chance and headed to Leipzig. All planed as a surprise for another friend...
