Want to learn how to play the piano? Play a little every day. Want to read more books? Read a little every day. Want to exercise more? Exercise a little every day. Step by step. Little by little. That’s how you build a habit. Once you’ve established a habit it becomes part of who you are. You do it no...
I listened to Seth Godin’s podcast the other day. I listen to every episode of Akimbo and I encourage you to try it out. This episode was called “Opportunity cost” and Seth was sharing his thoughts on time. It got me thinking as well, as Seth’s podcasts always do, so here are my thoughts on time and how we can...
School field day. Dentist appointments. Mother in law’s birthday. Dirty socks in the hallway. There’s hardly any milk left in the fridge. Flowers for the teacher on graduation day. The list goes on and on. There’s no end to it. Next day it just starts all over again and the things you didn’t do the day before add to your...
Are you always looking for ways to improve? Are you willing to take some discomfort today with the prospect of doing better in the future? Are you willing to help someone without expecting anything in return? Or are you trying to cut corners every day, thinking that it’s the only way forward? Always taking the easy way out might seem...
When are you going to show up? When are you going to face the potential in you? When are you going to step up and say “Hey, I made this”. It’s not going to be easy. It’ll be scary and on several occasions you’ll be asking yourself why you’re doing this. But it’ll be worth it, because you’ll have built...
We run through life trying to do everything, please everyone, be everywhere. At the end of the day, we fall asleep before we hit the pillow, or we have trouble sleeping. The alarm shrieks early in the morning and we’re off to the races again. And around, around it goes. Did you ever stop to think about what it’s for?...
Getting out of bed every morning is never easy. As the alarm sounds, you’d much rather hit the snooze button. Those warm sheets are way too comfortable to give up just like that. So you turn over and go back to sleep. At that moment, it seemed like the only thing to do. What if instead, you decide that hitting...
What do you do with your time? On what do you spend your most valuable asset? We have others taking care of our kids. We hire people to clean our house. We buy take out instead of cooking ourselves. We shop online instead of going to the store. We rely on contractors to renovate our houses instead of doing it...
All this talk about decluttering. Everywhere people are clearing out their stuff, emptying their closets, their kitchen cabinets and storage. There are TV shows where people can get help from a professional doing this. Participants stand on the sidewalk next to 150 garbage bags of stuff that they no longer need. Proud smiles on their faces. Then what? What happens...
We’ve all been there. That sense of overwhelm when you have so much to do that you don’t know where to start. Things are piling up on your to-do list faster than you can tick them off. You might question the point of it all. Why bother with anything since you cannot keep up anymore? So instead you browse through...
