200% of life

Did you know…? Thinking too much, anxiety, worry, anger, fear, stress, actually negativity in general … All of these things are just habits. They are something you’ve learned to do in response to things that you don’t like. The more you react in a certain way, the stronger that “way” gets and so the easier […]

A slippery slope indeed … You can distill the cause of ALL of humanities problems (outside of chemical imbalances) down to a few things. One of these things is not being present. People are so much in the past and the future that they spend virtually no time in this present moment. We think too

It may be an odd thing to say – But bear with me. I get to meet a fair few people. And the one thing that motivates like nothing else … … is suffering. Everyone I’ve met who is determined to live the very best life possible – 

Had the meter reader guy come in yesterday and, sheesh … The bloke had a bad case of body odour. Like serious. It lingered long after he had left. Left an oily coating on the walls. So aggressive it stained my teeth. I don’t want to make fun, really I don’t.

I found out something huge today – Something not of great importance in terms of world peace but of great “hmmmmm…” none the less. Did you know you can replace your iPhone battery? Isn’t that awesome? I thought you had to throw those things away when the battery stopped working so well.

Is the world going to hell in a hand basket? I don’t even know what a hand basket is, but I did hear the phrase on the Simpsons a long time ago. You can trust the Simpsons. But it would seem at the moment there’s very little you can trust for sure. It would seem

Ready for a New Years Motivational? Nah… It’s been so nice doing absolutely nothing. Eating, drinking, reading, board games, chatting, a little tree chopping, some kayaking, a load of just closing my eyes and snoozing and meditating. I’m still not really ready to jump back in.

I’ve noticed that men of a certain age are a little reflective after some recent news. George Michael dying at 53 … Hardly old, now is it? The one thing I know is that I don’t want to get to the end of my life … And not do the things I really wanted to
