I’m one of those people who make “to do” lists on a clean piece of paper and ideally with an ink pen. I’m not sure why writing it in ink makes me feel better about it, I think it just shows a greater level of respect towards the things I need to do if the… READ MORE
Ok, it’s one of those analogies that I came up with in the shower yesterday morning. But I’m seriously chuffed with this one.

To avoid total overwhelm, whatever the challenge you face, you must take it one step at a time. If you continually look at the bigger picture and overall aim you run the risk of overwhelming yourself into frightened-bunny-in-the-headlights mode. The problem with frightened bunnies in the headlights is that they freeze, making themselves a prime… READ MORE
I have this friend who is highly articulate, imaginative, creative and pretty darn intelligent.

I recently saw a programme with Peter Jones – The tall one from Dragons Den – and he was talking to successful entrepreneurs.

When I was younger I used to write poetry (believe it or not) and then as I grew up and grew busy with other things, I stopped. One day I realised I hadn’t written any poetry in ages so thought I’d sit down and put pen to paper. But when I did, I couldn’t find… READ MORE

It’s interesting how our language and words can have such a huge impact. But when you really think about it, words are just labels. Without their meaning they are just a series of letters that go together to make a sound, without the sound they are just shapes and symbols, yet these little insignificant shapes… READ MORE

Sometimes overcoming challenges is easy – and sometimes less so. A great strategy for taking control of challenges is to do the absolute opposite of trying to get rid of it and instead study the skills you need and use in order to create it. Forget about getting rid of problems. Instead rudely interrupt them.… READ MORE

Think positive and always look on the bright side. Focus on what you want. Whatever you think about the universe will send your way. Your thoughts become things. Rubbish.
