When Seth Godin answered this question he said ' I would like to be known by what the people who have learned from me have taught other people'. I think this was said on an episode of Tim Bilyeus' podcast, Impact Theory. If you're somebody that creates or puts stuff out there, I think it's … Continue reading What do you want to be known for?

What next?
When leading a movement or if you put yourself in a position to be a voice for change, a question to regularly ask is, what next? What next, when things don't go to plan? What next, when people lose motivation? What next, when you complete one of the things you were working towards? The road … Continue reading What next?
Checking in with your 2020 new years resolutions
We are currently in the period where your new years resolutions may have fallen away and you're now back to your normal (pre new years resolution) self. It's a common thing, it happens to everyone at some point, I'm certain.

Setting goals and losing steam
It's now a full week after New Year's Day. How are you goals, resolutions or plans coming along? You might find that after 7 days you're still enthusiastic and motivated or you might have found that you've lost steam. If you resonate with the latter then it might be useful to ask yourself why? Why … Continue reading Setting goals and losing steam
Good and better
Or maybe it should be good vs better. Sometimes better is worse than good but we think that good is enough so we don't aim for better. The mindset of a Bare Minimum Betty often lies in the good zone. Because when your bare minimum is good enough why would you do any better. If … Continue reading Good and better
Making a mountain out of a molehill
It might not be such a bad idea. When it comes to creating content, you have so many options: blog posts, Instagram feed, Insta-stories, IGTV, YouTube, podcasts, tweets etc. I've been thinking about how instead of just creating one thing, you can share one piece of content across different platforms.

I think there's a level of vulnerability that comes with asking for advice, to be open and honest enough to say 'Hey, so I'm going through xyz and I just wanted to get some advice from you as I'm … Continue reading Worth seeking advice from
On being content with not becoming a writer
Or at least trying to be. I remember being around 16 or 17 telling a classmate about my writing hobby and that I had thought of doing it as a career. At the time I was pretty lost with regard to career plans and my civil engineering dream was becoming less and less likely. My … Continue reading On being content with not becoming a writer
Good thoughts and bad habits
I think this statement is true for a lot of people. We all know what we need to do in order to reach our goals or get things done. It's the doing it part that hold us back. You're working on a project and maybe you spend a morning planning and preparing what to work … Continue reading Good thoughts and bad habits
In search of the next big thing
Setting goals achieving them but always wanting more because you're never satisfied. I've often found that when I achieve something I've been working towards it never feels as good as I thought it would. I just move on to the next big thing. It's as though as soon as I attain the thing I want … Continue reading In search of the next big thing
