Getting the hang of this

It’s been awhile. This post is about what I do when I feel like I look like a bridge troll.
Hello fine readers! I hope this post finds you well. I haven't posted on here since 2021 (oh the shame) but I am back now and hope to be back more and more often! I also have a youtube channel so feel free to check it out and subscribe and follow along. I now have 11...
The beginning of goal setting
There have been many times that I have written down notes and plans and to do lists and then.....I don't do any of it. I end up finding all sorts of loose papers and notes and for awhile I might have given it a go but I would either over schedule myself or run out of...
So the other day we went to the beach
and we had a great time.... Now, going to the beach with 12 people is no mean feat. Especially when you are one of two bosses. Towels, sunscreen, bathing suits, t-shirts to wear in the water.....water bottles....changes of clothes....don't forget the little brush to...
When you feel like you are restarting for the millionth time
So I have this website (THIS one you are reading right now). I really want to 'do stuff' with this website but......I don't. I was thinking about the dread of 'starting again' but then I thought...."just do it!" So here I am! Let's go back in time a little...

Time blocking and using alarms on my watch
I am a 'free spirit' in nature in many ways. I am not a 'free spirit in nature' because I am typing this in my home and I shave my armpits. I am creative and don't like being bound by time limits etc. Well, now......I think I was kind of lying to myself and I DO like...
Ditching the paper and moving to the iPad was a game changer
This might be because I am quite minimalist and like being organised but stopping with the using of random bits of paper and starting to use my iPad was a total game changer with my plans actually happening. Like I said in the previous blogs, I used to scribble notes...
