Once upon a time we lived in caves and our only form of evening entertainment was seeing how fast we could run away from a Sabre toothed tiger. It was a fun game, if a little dangerous. Even 30 years ago we would bring out that game of Monopoly and gather round as a family while we … Continue Reading
How many times have you been told that life is hard? It’s not really, it’s just wildly unpredictable and the people that tell you this are those who always look on the negative side. I mean, we all try to do our best with what we have and sometimes we strike gold but occasionally the … Continue Reading
I am going to let you in on a little secret – We all have the same amount of time as everyone else. It’s true. I know you may not think it, what with your hectic lifestyle, the unrelenting boss who wants everything done yesterday and those demanding kids who won’t give you a seconds … Continue Reading
Before we start I would like to point out that this isn’t an article about the end of the world or anything particularly apocalyptic in nature. That would be silly. Instead I would like question why as human beings, we always seem to look to the future instead of the here and now. Why we … Continue Reading
It’s physical. This is a short article that I wish to get out there because it constantly irritates me about the many misconceptions regarding depression, what it is and who gets it. I want to begin by asking a simple question. What is the difference between depression and food poisoning? I’ll tell you. With food … Continue Reading
Life is basically one long ass experiment that we have to take part in. 70 plus years of trial and error where we all try to do our best to make the most of what we have without killing ourselves in the process. It’s a fine line. We all make mistakes. We all walk down … Continue Reading
You wake up in the morning, you look in the mirror, what do you see? Your reflection stares back, an outer shell that betrays what lies behind. You feel so good yet you look so bad. How can this be? You worry that you have aged 5 years overnight. This isn’t me. I don’t look … Continue Reading
I have recently turned the horrifically ancient age of 32 and while I am embracing the idea of buying some slippers and resting my creaking bones by the log fire to do today’s crossword, I thought I would offer some insight into what I have learnt in my time on earth thus far. 1. Question … Continue Reading
“If your number one goal is to make sure that everyone likes and approves of you, then you risk sacrificing your uniqueness, and, therefore, your excellence.” – Unknown We spend way too much time trying to impress other people, and quite often people we really don’t care about anyway. It’s one of those little quirks … Continue Reading
Shortly before Christmas I witnessed something that has had a pretty huge effect on me. I will be totally honest, at the time I didn’t give it much thought. On the surface it was a brief incident, all over in 30 seconds and quite easy to forget. And yet now, four weeks onwards, I cannot … Continue Reading
Shut up – Your opinion is worthless I haven’t met anyone in ages but I want to give you some dating advice. I’ve only just met you but I know exactly the kind of person you are. My novel is amazing but for some reason the publishers aren’t interested. I’ve never been there but that … Continue Reading
What a title huh? I knew that would get your attention. Don’t worry it wasn’t a sensationalist headline for the sake of it but it’s a question I have asked a fair few people over the years and the majority genuinely have to stop and think about their answer. So what am I trying to … Continue Reading
I’m lying, it’s just short of 6 months but a post titled 5.5 months without a job doesn’t have the same impact. So yes, I’m a little early but if I didn’t write it now I would probably forget. For those of you who have only just stumbled upon my site, I quit my boring … Continue Reading
I am going to discuss something now that may offend a lot of people, but equally may also flick a switch in many others. I’m proposing the idea that your position in life, everything that you have done and will do in the future is purely down to you. Your decisions create the life that … Continue Reading
If you work ridiculous hours and have no time to actually have a life then you are doing it all wrong! Time is more important than money! There I’ve said it. The whole idea is that you work to live and not live to work but somewhere down the line a lot of us get this concept … Continue Reading
