27 Jan The Importance of Big Picture Thinking
We can imagine our ideal summer holiday next year; we can imagine ourselves looking incredible in a swimsuit, lounging around in the sun with a cool drink, surrounded by laughter. We can visualise ourselves looking our best and living our best lives. But if visualisation is so easy, why can’t the majority of us imagine our lives in ten, twenty or thirty years time? Why can we plan a holiday next year, but not plan for the rest of our lives?
20 Jan The Cost of Conforming
Conforming to the masses is an ancient survival tactic. Nowadays, however, many people conform out of fear of rejection and isolation. The cost of this fear is a loss of uniqueness, individuality and authenticity.
13 Jan Overcoming Victim Mentality
Let us discuss the victim mentality and how victimisation plays a huge, determinantal role in how most people relate to themselves. This is a critical discussion which I intend to handle delicately. Today, as we know, ‘victim’ has become a politically loaded word.

It’s time to stop saying ‘yes’ to the life you’ve outgrown and raise your standards of living.
23 Dec The Secret to Success is Discomfort
The secret to success lies in everything you’re avoiding.
You won’t find success sitting on your sofa, binge-watching inspirational Youtube videos, or liking inspirational people’s posts on Instagram. It won’t strike in the middle of your consistent daily routine of five years, or randomly pop up in your email inbox one day as you sit at your desk. Your sofa may be comfortable, your relationships may be familiar, and your routine may be safe. Still, you won’t grow and achieve long-term success by avoiding what’s hard or even marginally tricky, both physically and emotionally.
