Question, Question Everything Until....

More from Ariadna Arredondo!

It feels right! What are we on about? Curiosity. Be assertive. Be real with yourself.
Okay, okay, let�s break it down:
Every day you've got some extraordinary power to leave a footprint in someone�s walk or to light up someone�s stormy day�
Every day you've got the choice to make your own surroundings better and work towards your goal.
Now, in order to get to this place, you've got to ask yourself. Ask yourself tough questions!

For example:
1) Do I do my best at work?
2) Do I set clear goals for myself?
3) Do I challenge myself?
4) Do I always give out the best version of myself?
5) Do I give it my all every day, at whatever I am doing?
6) Do I achieve my goals?

These six questions may look simple, be that as it may be, these questions are the ones that make you think a step further.

We all move through a fast-paced lifestyle, all the same, we need reminders to slow down and focus on what we want to achieve before it slips away. As we are trying to focus on the day-to-day things, we tend to forget the big picture. We forget to practice, we forget to call, we forget to do something for us� being tied up with everything else we have got going in life.

Hence, we advice you to STOP! And question everything until you find what you are looking for. Don't let the daily errands take over your real passions and goals. By asking yourself these six questions every once in a while (every 2-3 weeks, keep yourself in line) you will really see what you want to do with your  life.

Be honest. Be real. Write it, sing it, post it, create it. Be truthful to yourself. After all, this is your life. 
Get to the root of it all, of what you are really passionate about, shake it up, remember to stay active and go for those goals. A trip, a concert, a dress, working out, taking better care of oneself, cleaning more, changing jobs, learning a language.. a thousand million things is possible in this lifetime. What is your passion?

Not only that, another key reminder is to Love Yourself, no matter what. You are who you are and are where you are because that is your path. So, give it your best, give it your all. And love yourself, love yourself every day a bit more, love yourself, faults and all, love yourself every step of the way.
And if it happens to be that you are happy with every aspect of your life, amazing! Still, keeping yourself in check is a great thing to do. All in all, balance.

Now, while you go find that balance, one step at a time, you also get the chance to talk to countless people on a daily basis. At the end of the day/week/month/year/life� you have talked to plenty of people.

Thus, all of these questions also apply to that. You are able to help someone every day without even knowing it. Just by the way you are, the way you act and the way others see you. You just never know whose life you can touch, without even wanting to.
All in all, it always makes sense to give the very best of yourself. Work hard, keep smiling and question everything until you find that balance that you want.
You know what we are talking about!

Do you have reminders to keep yourself in check?

Fashion, Food and Furniture: A Night with Panesar Kenya

Pic by Catherine Muchira  Now, part of being a nomad does involve socialising, although this probably hasn't been all too evident in my recent posts! The evening of Thursday, the 5th of November found me attending an invite-only event entitled 'Fashion, Food & Furniture' at the Rouge Deck , hosted by Panesar Interiors . I was allowed a plus one, and decided to make my best friend tag along with me. I must admit, when I first received the invite, I was a little curious to see how the 3 themes were meant to fit together, but everything flowed seamlessly on the day of the event! I must admit, I was quite impressed. The Fashion Pic by Official Photographer The clothes on display were designed and created by Njema Helena , a company that was formed by a mother and daughters team in honour of their late daughter and sister, who passed away from cancer a few years ago. The designs were absolutely beautiful, and I loved the modern take on traditional African prints. There were ...

The Mayura: Restaurant Review

Happy new year, everyone! It's been a while, so I thought to break tradition and post on a Tuesday this time - I'm sure you're in need of new restaurant recommendations, right? Located in Kenrail towers, the Mayura  is an Indian restaurant that you may not have been to yet. I'd heard about it, but never been, so when I was invited to do a review, I naturally jumped at the chance. Located in Kenrail Towers, the ambience of the Mayura has peacock-themed, warm interiors. There's a lot of space to sit down, both inside and outside. The restaurant is the brainchild of Rajiv Segal, who has a corporate background and being from Delhi, had a high standard of quality and had developed a distinctive palate, which he wanted to bring to the people in Nairobi. The menu was chosen for us by Rajiv (and boy, did we eat a lot!). For starters, we had some paneer tikka, mutton chops, fish amritsari and banu kebab (chicken). The paneer tikka was absolutely amazing! The paneer was fresh...

How to Organize Your Closet

Today�s guest blogger is fellow Her Campus Blogger Network member, Ak Brown! This is the first post in a series of posts she�ll be doing on The Kenyan Nomad. I hope you enjoy them as much as I have! Ak�s bio: Fashionable with a hint of unconventional rawness, that's what I used to describe myself and my blog Mind of a Fashionista. Started in 2013, I have transformed this blog along with my best friend into a diverse source of fashion, style, and beauty news, trends, tips, and tricks while also conveying opinions that normally don't go with the "norm" opinion. It's morning, 6:58 to be exact.  It's time for you to get up, get ready, and get going.  After showering, brushing and flossing your teeth you head over to your closet and say to yourself "What in the f***".  Shirts are hanging off of their hangers, pants look like they got up for a late night drink and passed out on the floor, and long story short, your closet looks like an abomination.  But y...
