…when you’re dealing with disappointment when everyone else is celebrating. Sometimes the year finishes all too soon, with goals incomplete, and disappointments scattered around you like the gift-wrapping after Christmas lunch. If you’re familiar with my writing or speaking, you know I’m passionate about celebrating. Reflecting on accomplishments and celebrating learning is incredibly valuable. It’s…
You might think that I’m getting in early for Christmas, or my birthday – which is now less than two weeks away, but no! Anytime is actually great for celebrating, and it’s something I do with coaching clients on a regular basis. The kind of celebrating is one you can do alone or with friends,…
My first blog following the epic 100 Days of Gratitude, is a little sharing about Ethan’s blog. Now that he’s not asking me everyday what I’m going to blog, he’s decided that it’s his turn to blog consistently. He began blogging 14 Days of Thinking a few days ago, and I’m blown away by what…

Gosh it’s great to get out and do something different! I’m grateful for a different kind of day today, firstly I spent hours at the hairdressers, which gave me plenty of time to think about the next book I’m writing for – yep, another one! The second thing I spent a few hours on was…

I’m grateful for the opportunity to speak at a fabulous event with Pete Halliwell (Country Energy) tonight. It was an energy forum, where Pete shared info about how to save energy, and then we facilitated the participants to come up with ideas about how they can implement changes. Even just in being aware of the…
