Book Progress
“We think, mistakenly, that success is the result of the amount of time we put in at work, instead of the quality of time we put in” – Arianna Huffington
Read MoreThe book is progressing really well. After some challenges in finding headspace, I seem to be back writing regularly and consistently, and the word count is slowly increasing. And I’m getting some great feedback. As you know, I am passionate about Agile Project Management and love sharing my knowledge. I also recognise that there are…
Read MoreI never really understood the definition of ‘headspace’. Not really. I mean, I kind of got it, but to be honest, I found myself getting a bit impatient with people who claimed ‘I don’t have the headspace for this at the moment’. As a coach and a strong believer of anyone’s ability to change their…
Read More“Act as if what you do makes a difference” – William James
Read MoreIt may seem like I have been quiet lately, but in truth I have been doing quite a lot. It’s just the the “quite a lot” has not been directly contributing to my chapter word counts. Have you ever started something, thinking you had everything you needed to get going, but found out you didn’t?…
Read More“If you don’t like something, change it. If you can’t change it, change your attitude” – May Angelou
Read MoreHave you ever had a big (or small) decision to make, and you simply did not know what to do? So did you delay making the decision? Did you worry you would make the wrong decision? Did you feel pressured into making A decision? Recently, I wrote a blog post about how to make great…

Read More“Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Matrix is. You have to see it for yourself” – Morpheus
Read MoreHave you ever had a call to adventure? A challenge to do something new, exciting and different? Perhaps it was a holiday or a new job? The truth is we get them ALL THE TIME. Sometimes, we don’t even notice them. Sometimes we do and we don’t take them for a variety of reasons. Sometimes…
Read More“Life is either a great adventure or nothing” – Helen Keller
