It’s said that a habit can take between 18 to 254 days to form, the average being 66. So that’s why, when the clock strikes 00:00 on January 1st, you do not become a new person. The one minute that deciphers one year from another does not transform you. We aren’t in Cinderella.

We should be taking one day at a time, being organised isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.

What does non-negotiable mean to you? Does it make you think of a turkey on Christmas day? A holiday abroad during summer? A cup of coffee before speaking to anyone in the morning?

To me, the term ‘non- negotiables’ means yet another trend that’s trying to frame our lives, helping us be more organised and aesthetic.
