Getting ready for what you want

If there's something that you want and something that you're working towards, you might find that you don't quite know what to do once you finally get it. We spend so much time wishing and pining for the things that we want that sometimes it takes finally getting them for us to realise that we … Continue reading Getting ready for what you want →

The planning process

Or how to get caught in false productivity, when really you're just wasting time. You could spend forever planning if you really wanted to. You could write lists, create mind maps and make a 12 month plan. You can do all of those things and make no progress on the project you are planning for. … Continue reading The planning process →

Expectations of others

Knowing when to quit

Sometimes we back down from situations because upon reflection we can clearly see that the reason we pushed on with vigor and enthusiasm is simple because you felt as though you'd gone too far to turn back.

Tackling the issue

Hard to imagine

There are many things in life that are hard to imagine however, it's worth remembering that this has no impact on the possibility of these things becoming a reality.

The lovers daydream

I daydream of you and I,In a field of flowers,Laying side by side. My hand in your hand,Your skin on my skin,With nothing to hide. No words spoken,Only gazing at each other,Glad to be alive.

At your best

At you're best you are joyful, kind, considerate, a good listener, focused, playful and caring. But sometimes you're also inconsiderate, moody, a bad listener, you have your head in the clouds (as in you're distracted and not present), you're rigid and harsh.
