When it comes to emotional wellness, a lot has been written about overthinking and its links to anxiety. However, we pay little attention to the other alternative: acting on impulse and just going with it. Not paying attention to the possible consequences that may unfold. Sometimes, those accused of underthinking are accused of being selfish, unreliable or inconsiderate. But for others, this behavioural trait may be a defence mechanism that keeps the people around them at an arm’s length. Are there moments where we are not giving enough attention to our emotions whilst making certain decisions?

Over the festive season, there were 13 farm attacks that took place across the country. According to the Department of Agriculture has noted that these attacks negatively impacts food security. Our next guest argues that these attacks are not just destroying the value chain; these attacks leave farmers vulnerable to brutality and torture. Our next guest has also highlighted that the victims of these attacks are not based on race, age or gender. With police stations often far from reach, there is little chance of apprehending perpetrators or fixing the infrastructure that is lost as a result of an attack.

Change in life is constant and the job landscape is no exception. As we look to achieve our career goals this year, we must first take stock of what areas we can improve and upskill. Life-long learning can help us to achieve personal development. It recognizes that humans have a natural drive to explore, learn and grow. This encourages us to improve our own quality of life and sense of self-worth by paying attention to the ideas and goals that inspire us

There are parts of ourselves that we do not like and we would rather people not know about us. Emotions that emerge can range from fears to shame. These so-called bad aspects of ourselves make up the "shadow self" and if left unattended, can cause more harm to your new goals and aspirations in the New Year. The good news is that there are many ways to address these patterns and behaviours. When you learn to embrace your shadow self, you can live a more balanced life
