A vision for your life

I’m happy that I’ve got the reality of my vision for my life. I’m more focused on having a balanced life, but not just between work and my personal life. I want to give back to the community too. Work-Life Balance Since my transition to living alone last year this has been an easy one […]

Take a Panoramic View

We spend a lot of time looking at screens, we look straight ahead, focused on the task. But we miss things. Go out into nature and we benefit from looking wider – we may miss things if we only look straight ahead. What can help is to develop greater peripheral vision – to see what […]

Being Authentic

I want to write from the heart. To be authentic. To write things that are meaningful to me. I want to write posts to make people think, to give people like you some inspiration. I don’t want to write with SEO in mind. I’ve been mainly writing things to help my Amazing People Career Consultancy […]

Letting go …

Do we need all our possessions? When we travel – do we travel light? We spend a lifetime collecting possessions. Our homes are full of beautiful things. Our wardrobes bursting with clothes. Shelves full of things to read and listen to. Why? Do we think these validate who we are? Do we want to be […]

The time to un-become everything that isn’t really me.

  Maybe the journey isn’t so much about becoming anything. Maybe it’s about un-becoming everything that isn’t really you, so you can be who you were meant to be in the first place. Paulo Coelho.   A year ago, I thought this statement was true to me as I embraced my single life and caught […]

My Vison Quest: The Return

Friday 5 July I left home at 12.30. Excitement, anticipation and a little unsure; but certainly, up for the Vision Quest. 10 days of camping, 4 nights without a tent. I hadn’t camped for years … and over 15 years since I’d had to crawl in and out of a small dome tent. Without any […]

A Vision Quest – Part 2

I’ve had a range of emotions for what’s coming up – scared and nervous, with an upset tummy for nearly a week. Then the calmness came. And that remains. I don’t know in any detail what will happen, that’s good for someone like me who likes to be in control, at all times. If you […]

A VISION QUEST

We must all follow our vision quest to discover ourselves, and to find our relationship with the world around us. I’m at a point in my life where I want to think again on my life purpose but this time to do it in nature. I want to get in touch with the deeper part […]

I’m a person not a bot

I like technology and will use it when it is helpful – such as to enable people to book appointments in my online diary simply, rather than playing phone tag. I recently signed up for a service that would allow me to have bots answering questions – so you would think you were chatting online […]

Stepping outside your comfort zone

Something I’d considered in the past was a comedy improv course.  Remember the TV programme, Whose Line Is It Anyway? There isn’t a script and you need to respond quickly to what other people say. I like to learn new things, being open to new experiences is part of who I am – I see […]
