How to stop doomscrolling
You know that feeling?
You really plan on finally reading a book again in the evening, listening to a podcast with total focus, or just watching a series with your family. But in the end, you find yourself back on the couch, staring blankly at your phone.
AUDIBLE vs. LIBRO.fm
It feels like there is always so much going on and a constant stream of new things to read or hear.
Even as a dedicated fan of a certain podcast app, I struggled for a long time to keep up with their latest updates. I told you before that I use SNIPD* to listen to podcasts.
Show Your Work
This is one of the books that changed my life the most. Or maybe not my life, but definitely my creative mindset.
It completely shifted how I think about sharing things on the internet and encouraged me to keep going with this blog… or actually start it the right way.
Temptation Bundling
I struggle with willpower more than anything else in my life, which is weird, especially since I consider myself self-employed. Still, I battle my own willpower every morning and every night.
How to take perfect Podcast Notes
Alright, I am not going to hide it from you anymore: If you are anything like me, you listen to an insane amount of podcasts. Lately, podcasts have become my main way of staying informed about things I am interested in.
Of Blood and Honor
In my attempt to figure out the correct chronological order to navigate World of Warcraft and understand…
World of Warcraft Lore
World of Warcraft is a game that has been with me my entire life. I have never really stopped playing, and I probably will not as long as this game exists. Unfortunately, the older you get, the less time you have for it.
How will you measure your life?
This book* challenged me to reflect on my own life choices and how I set my priorities…
This is wrong
The plan for this site was really to have a place where I can just shout out…
Overwhelming Opportunities
I gotta admit, I started this whole thing to get all this junk out of my head.
And right now, that’s exactly what’s stopping me from posting stuff here. I keep getting lost in all the news about Google Gemini and NotebookLM.
Latte vs. Flat White – What is the Difference?
Caffé Latte and Flat White are definitely the most ordered espresso-based drinks in coffee shops all over the world, but what are they really?
Have you ever wondered what the difference between a Caffé Latte and a Flat White is?
I have to Google it every single time I am standing in front of my machine or looking at the wall in a cafe to remember which is which.
Step-by-Step Guide: Beekeeping in Your Own Garden
Beekeeping is a fascinating and rewarding hobby and with this step-by-step guide for beginners without prior experience…
Fourth Wing – Worth reading?
Thanks to my TikTok algorithm, I stumbled upon Manacled, a Harry Potter fan fiction that takes a rather different turn from the original storyline. It also features a lot more sexual content than J.K. Rowling’s universe ever did.
Torstein Horgmo – Air Time
In this podcast, Torstein Horgmo talks about his remarkable career as a professional snowboarder, his personal growth, and the profound experiences that have shaped him. His rise to global snowboarding fame was swift, taking him from a bullied child to an international icon.
More than Spider-Man – Rich Roll
Tom Holland speaks frankly in this podcast about various aspects of his life, from his unexpected acting career to his personal journey toward sobriety. His career began by chance when his dance teacher encouraged him to audition for Billy Elliot—an opportunity he hadn’t actively pursued.
WHOOP – A Game-Changer
I’ve been using the WHOOP fitness tracker for quite some time now, and I have to say, it has completely changed the way I approach my training and recovery.
The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck
One of my favorites.
Thanks to Tim Ferris, I actually had two copies at home because I loved giving it as a gift.
Endel – Personalized Sounds
As you can already tell from this page, Thoughts of Mayhem isn’t just packed with all kinds of topics and ideas—it’s also a reflection of the minds behind it. But sometimes, you have to focus on specific things.
Manacled – Harry Potter Fan Fiction
My first book out of the BookTok universe. It was very different from what I’m used to reading, but I decided to give it a try because I grew up as a huge Harry Potter fan. I really loved the books as a kid, and even today, they are my go-to audiobooks when I need something to listen to while falling asleep.
11-22-63
Stephen King may be best known for horror, but 11/22/63 is something else entirely—a blend of historical fiction, time travel, and suspense, all wrapped around a surprisingly emotional core.
What the Name?!
I know, I know—mayhem is a strong word. Maybe it makes you think of outlaw bikers. Maybe Sons of Anarchy comes to mind. Or perhaps you picture total chaos—burning buildings, screaming people.
My Second Brain 2021
It is another one of those phases where I am writing more. Mostly because I am reading a lot lately and trying to optimize things. Even through stuff like temptation bundling. But while doing that, I realized that everything I am doing right now revolves around one big topic: The Second Brain.
A Living Nightmare – Darren Shan
Darren Shan’s A Living Nightmare kicks off The Saga of Darren Shan, a young adult horror series that blends vampires, morality, and coming-of-age themes into something surprisingly addictive.
