The Life Student

Thanks for tuning in for part two of Black Shirt, Black Pants - Happy With Less. I hope this episode is value-adding! See you next week.

In today's episode, we talk about a much different way of living - minimalism. There are different kinds of minimalism that target different modes of living. It proves a challenging but rewarding way of living. But it is a deeper world than that.

Books about minimalism:

In this week's episode, I will talk about the internet guru and motivation.

I'm back! This time with a new podcast, The Life Student. This podcast will serve as a means to talk about more topics than covered in the previous podcast, The Psych Student.

What is emotional intelligence and how to use it as a psychology student? 

What can I say? This is the LAST episode. 

(Update) - I was going to release a bonus episode but unfortunately my recording software is not working for the time being. I plan to get this recorded as soon as possible after The Last Episode. Thank you for your patience.
