    So, the April Daily Practice was Happy Dancing! Did you join in? Did you have fun? Or if you didn’t join in, what stopped you? I must admit, I wasn’t as committed to this practice as I have been to others…but I did it about 20 times in the month, and thoroughly enjoyed it…and I’ve…

  • Podcast: Comparison and Your Big Dream

    Comparing an apple and an orange leaves both apple and orange feeling somehow lacking.

  • May Daily Practice: Write

    Over the past few years, I have re-discovered the joy of writing. Not just writing books, blog posts, courses (although that’s been fun!), but writing journals…diaries if you like.

  • OnTheBeach – Push, Push, Push

    Do you ever get the feeling that you are pushing a stone uphill? Against a herd of bison coming toward you? With your feet tied together?

    Sometimes life gets in the way of your journey to your Big Dream. We’ve just had an Easter break, the kids have been off school, maybe you’ve had time off to relax and now you’re trying to get back into the swing of things. I know the feeling. I had 5 days off for Easter,…

    …Reflect upon your blessings, of which every man has plenty, not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some… – Charles Dickens Do you spend more time reflecting on what a shame it is for you that you don’t have this or that, or on how lucky you are to have plentiful, running…
