The end of 2024 is fast approaching. For many, it is a time to reflect on the year. Some of it will have been good, maybe even better than good. There’s sure to be stuff that could have gone better. Possibly, you look back and cringe. Those of you who read my blog regularly will […]
The feeling is amazing! You’ve made the plan. Then, you’ve taken action. Finally, you have what you set out to achieve. There is that immense sense of satisfaction. A well-formed plan realised with results to enjoy. Most of us, if not all of us, have experienced this at some point in our lives. Hopefully, at

I think that most of know when we’re feeling motivated. Suddenly, we have the energy and focus to make it happen. Obstacles seem less challenging, and we find ways to overcome the barriers. Progress adds to the sense of achievement. We have that overwhelming sense of being able to do it. Conversely, when we lack
There’s a lot of stuff out there about self-improvement. Similarly, there’s loads about finding yourself, and discovering the real you. And it all sort of makes sense.
