Not quite there yet
I recently had a conversation where I was explaining my neutral feelings towards a topic. As the words poured out I thought I was almost on a bit of a high horse. But as the conversation went on I realised that my neutral feelings were just a defense mechanism or a coping strategy. Turns out … Continue reading Not quite there yet
Embracing temporary things
Wake up, wake up! The world is changing. Over the past 10 years or so I've noticed a big change in the way that people work. Self-employment is on the rise along with jobs in the gig economy. Perhaps as a society we believe in ourselves more or we've opened up to the idea that … Continue reading Embracing temporary things
Maybe we should meet our idols
Because cracking the illusion of the super human might be just what you need. So, I don't have anyone I'd consider an idol but I have a bunch of music favourites as well as Seth Godin, Simon Sinek, Gary Vee etc. They're all people that move or inspire me. They're people I think are amazing … Continue reading Maybe we should meet our idols
