Worth looking back on

This morning, for the first time in perhaps close to a year, I read Seths Blog. I discovered that he had a new book coming out soon called The Song of Significance.

There are more than two options

A few weeks ago I was inspired by a reader to stick with this blog once the year comes to a close. I realised that it would be perfectly fine to just keep this blog and post less, it didn't have to be a choice between posting really often or not at all.

A challenge worth accepting

At the end of 2021 I decided that I would strip back from trying to daily blog and just stick with 3 blog posts a week.

A good thing worth ending

As the saying goes, all good things must come to an end. The end of something that didn't reach it's full potential is like a kind of heartbreak. A thing with potential is the sort of thing you can convince yourself to stick at for much longer than is reasonable. You do this because you … Continue reading A good thing worth ending →
