Time for change [Giveaway]
September is the start of a new season, Spring. It marks the change in something and brings new life, change.
“The secret to change is to focus all of your energy not on fighting the old but on building the new” – Socrates
This month we want to encourage you to focus on you. Working on you and believing in you. Set your goals and do something every day to work towards them.
We found this incredibly motivating video below about how things can change when you believe in yourself.
“You have to be relentless. you have to never stop, never quit, never allow anyone to talk you out of the dream. You don’t need anybody to understand your dream and goals. You don’t need anybody to approve of you. If you get that encouragement that’s great, but I say stand up within yourself boldly and say this is my life I’m controlling my destiny.”

Year 2020,the year of a new kind of order being introduced to everyone throughout the world.In reality no one expected an immediate stop in the world,every person told to stay in inside locked down that is change,the productivity, manufacturing etc of all countries mutes to silence.Seven Months now we in the month of September known for a new beginning the pandemic crisis has surged to exist and one can say life is starting over again.My Change is to validate my ways of hustling,find interests to not only uplifting myself on an financial level but also create a bucket list of achievements to counter and succeed on.Everyone has taken a fall due to this Corona Virus but it was also a form of life saying “Wake Up,Smell the coffee” to be the person you wish and worked hard for to become.If I win I wish to get a “Diesel:Only The Brave” fragrance because to me it signifies the year of 2020,CHANGE.
During this #LockdownSA I’ve neglected my health quiet drastically…put on a gastly amount of weight…so my goal is to bring my weight down & live a much more healthy Lifestyle.
I’ve made changes by returning to gym after the restrictions were lifted & diet Is utmost Important!
I take full responsibility for my current ill-health but I promised myself that this is a much needed lifestyle change for me as it will determine “quality of life” – the frangrance I choose is one that I’ve always been fond off & admire its aroma & gives a feeling to go get what you worth!

In the remaining months of 2020 I’m looking forward to getting a huge breakthrough in my life. In order to achieve this I have to remain hopeful in whatever I do, even if it fails I’ll still have hope that one day change is going come my way!
Should I be chosen, I would like to win Montale Paris Black Oud, to welcome this new change in my life.
Hey, everyone!
When I saw the topic “time for change”, I immediately thought of my mental health.
I’m a website developer, but currently feel stuck at my work company which drains me and makes me come across as irritated all the time. Although I’m very fortunate to still even have a job during these times, I decided that enough is enough! I recently applied for a couple of new jobs and with the help of a friendly recruiter, I received two amazing job opportunities!
The first opportunity is to work fully remotely from anywhere with the same salary and the second option is to move to Mauritius and work for a company there!
I haven’t decided yet, but when I saw the Manbox email “time for change”, everything snapped. (Thanks, Manbox! You’re true inspiration.)
I’m choosing to move to Mauritius! It’s going to be a big change for me, but I think it will be fantastic for my mental and physical health! (there’s rock climbing too, btw!) It will also open doors to travel to Europe, since the head office of the company is in Europe. So thanks to Manbox’s little bit of inspiration, I will experience great change!
I’m choosing the fragrance “Soleil Blanc” by Tom Ford, since it as a coconut scent and I want to give it to my dearest girlfriend for when I ask her to move to Mauritius with me.
Hello Gents
This year has certainly felt like we were all stuck in the matrix. While 2020 wasn’t as simple as choosing between a red and blue pill, it certainly has been an eye opener.
This reality check encourages us all to work towards creating a better version of ourselves. The gift of life should be used to work, create and celebrate our goals.
I personally have been inspired to pursue not just my needs…but my WANTS.
This is exemplified in the fragrance that I would love to add to my gym bag. Azzaro WANTED is everything we should all embody – generosity, liberty and charisma and a desire to celebrate life.
Dude, this is inspiring!
I have decided to take more time for myself, if anything this year has taught me that life is short and you have enjoy every moment English leather Eau de cologne
It been a taugh year not only to me but my siblings also, when we lost my mom in April I though I will never see a light of day ever again. But I’m constantly reminder of the great in me, love & laughter around keeps me pushing. So I decided to pick myself up go back to school to finish my Advanced Diploma in Management and as the light shines through day after day I have hope that soon I’ll be able to travel & explore what good out there that life have to offer. Hoping to celebrate & share my birthday on the 3rd of December with family & friends spreading love & warmth.
For a long time i have been struggling with skin not only that but it has always been in my heart to bring some influence on how to take of your skin as man . Man Box i think will give me an opportunity to accomplish that and making sure that the brand is loved, Appreciated and known in every social media platform …… nothing soothens like a beautiful and clean skin of a man
First things first, I’m heading back to the gym and shedding of the weight I gained during the lockdown and one main thing is changing my diet too, lately I’ve just been feeling fatigued and all so I think it’s about time I change my lifestyle – “You are what you eat”
If i had to choose a fragrance it would have to be my all time favorite, Diesel BAD!
This year has taught me to be more mindful of my health. Just intend on eating healthy foods and less junk. Exercise more and putting more effort to saving more money as we may never know when a rainy day comes. My family is of utmost importance to me and I intend on making more memories with them. My favourite fragrance is Kouros.
As we welcome spring season I have dedicated myself to shine, this year has brought so much dullness in our lives but September will bring in fresh air to everyone. I look forward at completing my exams this month and celebrating my birthday on the 24th.
