Thriving your way
“You should be far more concerned with your current trajectory than with your current results.” James Clear, Atomic Habits. It is good to celebrate our progress and achievements, even when they’re small because they mean we are still moving forward. What did you start, progress or achieve last month?
Are you feeling overwhelmed at the number of things you’d like to improve and worried you won’t or can’t improve. Instead of goals use the wheel of life to find your priority annual theme.
Holidays are about relaxation, calm and freedom. Is it possible to keep that feeling when you return to work? These four steps will help you find holiday calm in your work day.
I’m not a fan of having a new year resolution as I’ve found they rarely have a successful outcome. So this year I’m doing things differently and I’m working towards a long term goal. A goal that will help me achieve the life I want in the future.
The book Tell your time* is about developing a schedule so you can complete the things you want to do. It’s a short book (which seems appropriate for a book about making the most of your time) with a lot of great information packed into the pages. Are your daily activities moving you toward where you want to be, or are you swept up in the tumult of your to-dos? We all know there is a Continue Reading …
There is so much I want to achieve that for years I’ve been working on becoming more productive. I’ve focused on do more, do more, do more. However, after several tired weeks when I haven’t looked at my task list, I’ve had a revelation. Why do I want to do more? What will I do when I’ve finished everything on my list?

March was a disappointment for me as I wrote just one blog post, so I’ve been thinking why, what happened?

Improving my sleep My only resolution this year is to improve my sleep and last month I got to bed earlier than January Continue Reading …
I’ve spent most of the last two weeks finding and deleting duplicate files. A rather tedious task and one that worries me as I think I may delete a non duplicate file by mistake. I have to admit this isn’t the first time I’ve worked on removing my duplicate files, but it has recently become a priority because: my laptop hardrive was almost full, I was down to 5Gb free out of 688Gb I was Continue Reading …
Seeing as we’re almost at the end of March it seems a bit late to be reviewing my progress in February. However, I don’t want to give up on these progress posts after just one month. I’ve been quiet this month here and on social media because I started a new job at the end of February which is very exciting after my role was made redundant in October last year, but I’m still getting used Continue Reading …
