It’s been quite a week hasn’t it? For me personally, it’s been an eye-opening and slightly exhausting week. I was away on holiday in Las Vegas. I’ve never been there before and it was a real eye-opener. If you haven’t been either, then I can only say that everything you’ve read about or heard about…

Compared to who?
“Did it really take you all day to do that report? Gosh. Shirley used to be able to do it in under two hours.” “It’s funny that you’re so short – everyone else in your family is so tall.” “Research shows the average thirty-year old today has little or no savings compared to their peers…
Unplug Yourself
I’m keeping today’s blog short and sweet because I want you to spend the five minutes you might have been reading this to do something else – I want you to Unplug Yourself. By the time you read this, I will have been Unplugged for at least three days. It’s one of the things I…
Go With The Flow
I found this definition of ‘Go With The Flow’ in the Urban Dictionary – ‘To not attempt to exert a large amount of influence on the course of events, whether a specific series of events or events in general. A person who does this is often referred to as “laid back” or “easygoing”.’ Let me explain……
Doing Scary Stuff
I’m not sure if you’ve ever gone through this – I’m guessing you probably have. As you know, I finished writing the bulk of Coping with the Horroffice at the end of last year. Then there was a lot of work involved in getting the actual physical (and Kindle version) of the book ready and…

If you read my blog on Sunday you’ll know my MOT was booked for this week. It was actually booked for yesterday. So by the time you read this I will already know whether my car is an MOT pass or fail. And with immaculate timing, knowing it was about to sit its annual test, my…
Wheels, Brakes and Warning Lights
It’s been a funny old week. I don’t know about you, but I’m a bit of a planner. Every Sunday, I take some time to plan out what I’m going to work on each evening of the following week, I plan out my meals, I plan out what I want to focus on over the…
Spring Fever
Today was the very first day in a very long time that I didn’t need to wear my big quilted jacket to work in the morning. I didn’t have to wear it on the way home, or on my hour-long walk with the pooch this evening. I’ve even been able to switch the heating off…
Code word ‘should’
I’ve just written this week’s newsletter – it goes out every Sunday, and has at least one tip or action that I think might make your life a little bit easier and happier (if you want to be in on that little piece of scrumptiousness just drop your details in the sign up box opposite)….
Dress to impress
I forgot to tell you one of the side effects of my last contract. As there was no real client facing work, the office dress code of ‘business casual’ had become more of a ‘mostly casual, but not quite jeans. Oh, ok then, jeans, but only if they’re black and look ok. Well, maybe dark…
