Loneliness is one of the world's silent epidemics, with many people feeling lonely, even when they have friends and families around them. It is perfectly normal. This morning, Perri had a discussion about some of the ways we can overcome loneliness.

•Look into the possible causes for your loneliness. Understand why you may feel this way.

•Seek professional help, if you need it.

•Try small talk. From small conversations, bigger ones grow.

•Social sport. Majority of people who play social sport are just there for the fun and to make new friends. Don't hold back if you feel you aren't good at the sport.

With exams, tests, assignments and interviews being part of everyday life, how can we combat the fear of failure? It's something that holds a lot of us back and stops us from doing things that we really want to do. Well, Isaac had a chat about this and some of the steps we can take to combat the fear surrounding failure.

•No Shame Policy: Be in a group of friends where 'failure' isn't followed by laughter, ridicule and embarrassment.

•Address the Problem: Learn from your mistakes and understand how you can do better next time. Remember, there is always a next time.

•Learn from your mistakes: Similar to step 2. Remember that failure happens when we cave in and don't attempt to learn from our mistakes.

•Don't bottle it up: Talk to someone you trust. A friend, family member, caregiver or a teacher/mentor.

•Question your fears: Are they actually irrational fears and highly unlikely to come true?

•Focus on what you CAN control: A lot of things we worry about are out of our control and potentially come down to 'chance'.

•Embrace the grey: Success and failure shouldn't be black and white. This all-or-nothing thinking can increase stress and anxiety.
