As much as you might want to focus on other stuff, it will always be worth putting some time into branding. It’s important to think about how things look to an outside eye and understand if you’re able to deliver your intended message. I’ve always wanted The Daily Gemm (TDG) to be a space with … Continue reading Putting more thought into branding

The easiest way to get things done
Is to start. Not soon, not later and not tomorrow but now. So often we find ourselves overwhelmed by our ever-growing to-do lists that we end up thinking more planning, more thinking and more organising is the way forward. But at the crux of it all without taking action, nothing is going to change. You'll … Continue reading The easiest way to get things done
What would you like from me?
I'd love to know what you like and would want more of in the future from The Daily Gemm.

It helps you figure out what you want to … Continue reading What do you want to be known for?

I remember years ago writing the … Continue reading When things don’t go to plan
Falling behind
In a matter of weeks I went from scheduling posts a week in advance to throwing something together at 10.30pm the night before. I was glad that I had the willingness to still try and not just give up and miss a day because I wasn't as organised as I'd like to be. The simple … Continue reading Falling behind
