Dubai, UAE

I’ve just finished the lovely Midnight Library by Matt Haig. It was such a nice book. I cried so much over the days I read it. It tells the story of a depressed girl called Nora who tries to take her life because she feels like a failure, she is hopeless because she’s never stuck with anything. She gave up swimming even though she was on her way to the Olympics, she gave up on her band even though they got a deal with Universal, she gave up on her relationship two days before the wedding… and I could totally relate to that. I have done millions of things but I really struggle with commitment and discipline and end up giving up. As a result I don’t feel like I am good at anything. However, reading the book gave me hope. I felt much more optimistic about life. I am alive and I can do great things I just need to be a bit more disciplined.

I tried to find books that could help me with this and found a couple of them:

• The Power of Habits
• Atomic Habits
• The One Thing
• Deep Work

I’ll go over them in the next few weeks and see if it can help me be more committed and disciplined.
