October 2, 2016Olga ChirkovaArt of living, Self-Awareness2 comments

It’s been a while since the last time I sat down to write an article, even if I have so many things to share like never before. In the last few months all I had to deal with was the art of decision-making at its finest. To my opinion life is nothing, but a constant  decision-making-process. We…

Be The Best Creative Director of Your Hollywood Movie

July 12, 2016Olga ChirkovaArt of livingNo comments

The Biggest Hurdle of the Spiritual Path: “I’m not there yet”

June 22, 2016Olga ChirkovaArt of living, Personal Growth, Self-loveNo comments

Last week I met a woman, whom I knew from the playground next to my parents house, when I was a kid. I was 10 years old when she saw me the last time and you can imagine how surprised she was to see an adult woman of almost 28 in front of her. We…
