From time to time I feel dissatisfied with my life. I feel I should be more than I am, that I do not live up to my potential. I should have a higher paid job, I should be living in a big house, driving a fancy car, going on exotic holidays. I should be moreContinue reading “Are you satisfied with your life”

Live in the moment and enjoy your journey through life
Many of you will have realised by now that I use this blog as some kind of therapy, to remind myself how to be to keep myself on an even keel. With that in mind I thought I would talk about the day I have had today. It has been a good day, bordering onContinue reading “Live in the moment and enjoy your journey through life”
Be Your Perfect Leader
On Monday I facilitated a timeout morning for a group of senior ward Nurses. The subject soon got onto leadership. The discussion centred on how to encourage leadership in the team, to enable staff members to actively seek solutions rather than default to the ward manager, deputy manager or unit co-ordinator, and how to manageContinue reading “Be Your Perfect Leader”
Everything Is Going To Be OK
All us adults between 40 and 70 have tried our best to stuff everything up. We were the generations that had it easier than any other generation in the history of the world.

The Mix Tape of My 90s
As I mentioned in my previous blog when I tasked myself with putting together the soundtrack of my life so far it ended up being over 7 hours long, so I decided to imagine I was putting the music of a C90 tape, therefore restricting what I could include. That has been the best bit,Continue reading “The Mix Tape of My 90s”
The mix tape of my teen years
The other week I shared 20 albums that have had an influence on me. I had so much fun that I thought I would compile a list of songs that I enjoy and have provided my soundtrack. To provide some parameters I imagined I was putting together a C90 mix tape, to ensure my listContinue reading “The mix tape of my teen years”
Giving up?
The other day I was thinking about the time when I gave up smoking. I was wondering to myself how I managed to give up. Did it take will power? I know that I have next to no will power so it couldn’t have been, just denying myself something for long enough that I wouldContinue reading “Giving up?”
