After a long, and very productive day (which is quite amazing when I consider how little sleep I’ve had in the last 24 hours) we went to a friends place for dinner tonight. I love an invitation to dinner, especially when it’s a short notice event and perfect timing after a huge week! This picture…
Again, much to be grateful for today, when I stop to think about the quality of the words I’ve been editing today. It can be too easy to get stuck in the detail of the task and lose sight of the big inspiring picture. It’s a big editing day (and night) hence the photo of…
So grateful today for some very exciting mail… especially for the sender! Julie Woods, That Blind Woman, from New Zealand, launched her book recently, and popped a couple in the mail to me. How exciting! The book covers Julie’s first 10 years of blindness, and explores her learning along the way. Julie has featured in…
My brother David is in the spotlight today, as I’m so grateful for several things – that he came to visit today, and that he now has a permanent job! (he’s been recovering from a life-threatening accident since last October). He’s pictured here with Lyndon and Ethan learning a few things about the internet. I…
Andrew Mowat So thankful for our friend Andrew Mowat… Andrew and I connected through Results Coaching Systems about 3 years ago, which was exciting as his reputation had preceded him… his reputation for the great work he’s doing in bringing a coaching culture to the education world… I had no idea of his sense of…
I’m so excited to share that my gratitude today is for my friend Elena’s visit! She’s driving through from Melbourne to Brisbane and we haven’t been in the same city for more than 2 years, so it’s wonderful to be spending some time together. This furry friend was so happy to pose for photos, which…
I’m so grateful for a sunny day, and the chance to get out in the fresh country air, with a cappucino and live Jazz at Red Earth Estate this morning. I stayed long after the crowds had gone, sitting in just the right blend of sun and shade, editing a few chapters of the book,…
I’ve been sitting here contemplating the day – I have much to be grateful for – but what did I take a photo of today in my book-busy day? I’m in a silent house and suddenly startled by the “brrrring” of the Live Chat on our site. A new friend Lindsay popped in to…
Another full day with many moments to celebrate… where to start and how to keep it brief? Several months ago, before the book project had a timeline, I was booked for a team coaching event by a local government department. Today, the day of my first deadline with the publisher, was the date booked. (Just…
