Being Out of Integrity

It’s been an interesting couple of years – you know, interesting, as in the Chinese Curse. Mopping up after the death of a business colleague, recovering from ill health, facing the fact that my husband is always going to be a serial philanderer, losing a number of dear relatives (most recently my father-in-law)…I won’t go [...]

Too Busy To Write

The title in itself is untrue. Writing is what I do, so to declare myself too busy is a nonsense. What is becoming noticeable to the extent that even I (with head firmly facing in the opposite direction) can no longer ignore it, is that I am not writing. At least not for myself. Attending [...]

Do One Thing at a Time

I have previously mentioned theEben Pagan program Wake Up Productive and one of the key principles taught is clear focus – simply put, this is do one thing at a time. Yesterday, my dear friend Ron Rink over at Buddhist Belief made one of his excellent thought provoking posts on….doing one thing at a time. [...]

Visions are Good but ….

….don’t lose sight of what you already have! My housemate is a large, aged, tabby cat called Mr Trouble. He came with that name as a rescue from the RSPCA in 1998. It has taken Mr Trouble almost 10 years to settle, to trust and to reach out for affection. Prior to where we are [...]

The Danger of Having Expectations

Having expectations of others is a dangerous pursuit. One that is almost certainly going to lead to disappointment at best, and resentment at worst. If you think about it, expectations are so one sided. I expect you to do something or behave in a certain manner but at no stage have you agreed to do [...]

Remembering What You’ve Forgotten You’ve Forgotten

I am privileged to belong to a very special group of people. It is not a secret society, but rather a gathering of like minded individuals working towards a common aim. Every now and then something crops up within the group which will spark an off-topic discussion. This week we’ve had one of those every-now-and-then [...]

De-Cluttering

In much the same way as a computer will eventually grind to a halt if the essential housekeeping isn’t attended to – caches and cookies cleared, disks cleaned up and defragged, recycle bin emptied – our ability to function is impaired when our minds and our surroundings become cluttered in both the physical and metaphoric [...]

Don’t Forget to Take Care of You

There has been a common thread running through voice and email communications with friends. So many seem to be caring for others – be it children, aged parents, employees or friends in distress – and neglecting themselves in the process. It is a wonderful gift to be able to support another in a time of [...]

Business with Integrity – is it still possible?

Two incidents today have made me think about what succeeding in business really means. A very dear friend who maintains a handful of inspiring blogs has had one of his email addresses hacked and used to spam thousands of people. I assume because this is an established email address it had some value to the [...]

Why is Good News not News?

In the UK we are dealing with a disturbing story regarding the deaths of a mother, father and daughter. What was thought to be a house fire now appears to have been a deliberate arson attack. The Police are now also putting forward the theory that the father may well have killed his wife and [...]
