#0691 Right or Biased
What is the definition of being right. Is it an opinion, factual or simply a biased point of view. Who determines the facts anyway. The lines have been blurred so best to remain open, curious,…

#0681 Pity Parties
The end of an era is approaching fast, are you prepared or just allowing it to happen. Everything ends, sometimes without notice, often anticipated. Invariably the end of something signifies the beginning of another. Many…
#0680 Switch Focus
The fastest growing companies have a decent offering but are better at sales. Understanding this early enough to not burn through all capital without income. Most businesses suffer the same plight, too focused on the…
#0676 The Pursuit
Do you need another course or do you need to take more decisive action. In the pursuit of a better way we can get lost in the next thing. You have a pile of inherent…
#0675 Overthinking
I rarely sit down to write with an idea in mind. Yet when I sit in my armchair, something invariably comes to me. Starting with a word or two and it flows from there. A…
#0672 Future Chapters
Imagine your life is a collection of stories you are using to write a book. Many of the best tales are rooted in misadventure, failures and hard knocks. Some chapters you would probably skip and…
#0671 Seek Cheerleaders
If you keep seeking validation you will never push the boundaries of what is possible. There are many examples of innovators who were thought to be crazy until they had their breakthrough. Growth comes from…
#0670 Just Do
I’m not sure how to put this. Get out of your own fricken way. You are the blocker, you flim-flam, you cufuddle, you discombobulate, you. Take stock, make a decision, act, stick to it, review….
#0669 Embrace Challenges
Challenges are invigorating. Challenges lead to growth, shifts, progress, learning, experience. Challenges are not the enemy, your mindset toward them may be. Embrace them as they appear as one thing is for certain, there will…
#0667 Experience Counts
Truth bomb, nobody really cares. We forgo progress paralysed by the fear of what others think, when they rarely care at all. Failing, looking and feeling awkward, miss-steps, fumbles, dropping the ball, lapses are all…
#0664 Risky Moves
Risk is not just about Win-Lose and rarely that clean cut. Reputation, trust, legal, brand and safety are just a few others. Also consider the human impact, burnout, relationships, goodwill. Instead of Win-Lose, think Win-Lose-Draw-Delay-Divert-Transform,…
#0663 Banks Hey
We expect the worst and convoluted is an understatement. Whilst organising some finance my bank sent me an email asking me to sign a document and return by email. Only problem, the request came from…
#0662 Go Deep
Stay with that thought. In meditation we aim to allow a thought to pass and then focus back on our breath. Thoughts come and go and that is the point. If you are trying to…
#0660 A Simple Existence
Where does the time go. At the blink of an eye I find myself in the latter years thinking about how to make the most of whatever time is afforded me. We spend so much…
#0659 The Cost of Email
When someone sends you an email, is it reasonable to expect a response within a day if not hours. I am conflicted on this one. Yes is my immediate reaction especially if the email is…
#0651 Navigating New
It has taken humans millions of years to evolve and AI just a whisper of time. Of course it will be flawed, a minefield of questions and many rabbit holes to explore. On your personal…
#0648 Contemplating
There is a runway. You do not care in your twenties, distracted by maturity in your thirties and far too busy in your forties to even notice. Then it hits you, how much longer do…
#0647 The Merry Go Round
Round and round we go. If you find yourself in a loop, chances are you have reached the end of your expertise. Repeating the same things over in loop will not make them work any…
#0646 The Divide
Ideas are a dime a dozen. Everyone has at least one world changing concept, but few are able to execute on it. The tools are democratised so will that bring more innovation, undoubtedly. There will…
#0641 Choose Something
There are at least 67 gajillions ways. Since when are we skinning cats anyway, rabbits I would understand. There are just as many choices in business and it can be overwhelming. Rather than default to…
