Thriving your way
We’re four weeks into lockdown in the UK, with at least another three weeks to come of the current restrictions. And we don’t know what reduced restrictions will mean. Will the schools reopen, will businesses like shops reopen? I don’t know the answers, and I don’t think anyone does. It all depends on the numbers or until there is a vaccination. So I’m not thinking about when this will end. I’m concentrating on the good Continue Reading …
How was March for you? It probably involved a lot of change. It certainly did for me as the UK went into lock down, so I’m now working at home every day and the children are doing their schooling at home. The type of work also changed as we converted a large in person event to online in ten days. Part of this involved managing live webinars; my team did fourteen in a week having Continue Reading …
Coronoa virus, Covid-19, social distancing, shielding, lockdown. You probably hadn’t heard of these words a few months ago, and now they’re impacting our lives in so many ways. And are likely to change our future in ways we couldn’t have imagined a few weeks ago. I started working at home on Tuesday 17th March and my husband two days later. The last day of school was on 20th, and so the next day our stay Continue Reading …

And we continue making progress, even if most people don’t see it. I get the impression that people will only think we’ve made progress when we remove the lift. And I agree that will be a big day, but we’re making Continue Reading …
Just over a year ago I decided I wanted to get healthier, so last year was my year of health. Instead of new year resolutions I set a theme to get healthier and each week I added one small habit. Unfortunately, last year was not a healthy year. It started with a sickness illness and ended with a persistent cold that I had for over two months. So it should be easy for you to Continue Reading …
“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?
Board games are important to our family as a way of spending quality time with each other, and friends. One thing I particularly like is that there are so many different games, so many different mechanisms that everyone can find one they enjoy. And everyone gets a chance to win because they are better at some types; trust me there is no need to allow the kids to win in our house. Just a few Continue Reading …
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.
The Rubik’s Cube is an iconic and addictive toy that has been around for 40 years. With new variations available including the Rubik’s Edge and Rubik’s Orbit would the children or adults solve them first?
