Q For Quarter

We’re wrapping up the 4th quarter, akin to say a basketball game and you’re routing for your team to knock it out the park for a goal – it can feel like all these things at once as you try to get everything you imagined done, before the year is up… However, looking at things as both ready to conclude and also be at infinity, is where we break things down further – If you fail to achieve what you…

At The Half

Have you asked yourself where you’re at, with no judgement? It’s somewhat conditioning to run with the month of January being 1st, so June must be 6/12 but have you been keeping a task list or anything, since? Have you sat with yourself and asked this yet? Asking is leading to an answer, therefore creating a need, if necessary. Just to garner a response in productivity that’s relative to the…

Photographer No Instagram

What’s the problem? If you choose a method of communication that suits you, why is it bad for business, however you look at it. This coming from a brief conversation, a reminder, when speaking with a photographer recently – it’s what makes you work best that matters… So this conversation has been brought up a few times but this recent discussion was around me asking this particular photographer…

Check Your Domain

Being loyal can work on your favour, if you work with a good business. It’s understandable that rates increasing can make both the business and consumers uneasy, but if you’re paying for a service, it should always meet your expectations. Checking if the provided applications are completing each aspect of what you need is key. Why pay for something that doesn’t serve you – I know you know about…

P For Peace

Nothing wrong with getting quiet, getting low and just doing what you have to do. Peace is a piece of necessity when it’s all loud and you can’t think straight and you can see static – yes, exactly that. To stop. To close your eyes. To be free of disturbances and distractions, of the unnecessary, ideally… Striving for this doesn’t mean you shut down immediately, as it’s normally like an alarm…

Can’t Stop Time

Or rewind it either and sometime a reminder is needed. We have all types of goals and things we want to achieve in this lifetime. Making sure provisions are made to complete them are the main steps to take… There are so many times we’ll say “Oh, I wish I had…” or “I can’t do that now, it’s too old.” But why is this the case? Have you ever told yourself, “I’ll look out for that opportunity, or a…

Remain In Lane

Sticking to focus is challenging, as it’s easy to get distracted at times. There are many wants and needs in the world that we’ll pick and choose what’s next and what’s last to tackle. Remaining in place until it’s completed and reducing the amount of “To-Do”, is the main aim… To avoid deviation and distraction – unless this is needed to tie your goals all together – you base completion on the…

O For Optimism

There’s always going to be negatives, this cannot be helped. But when your focus is solely on the not so good, it remains a constant. Optimistic thoughts will see the other side and lead to opposing action, in efforts to garner a more positive response… Channelling something, pushing through, that’s what gets you to the desired point. Focus and determination to achieve will be the end goal. So…

Repeated? Listen Again…

You can’t always remember what’s necessary as there’s so many distractions out in the world, let alone in your home. Having something on repeat will repeat it’s importance in you and you’ll find a way to keep practising it, as you listen and take it all in. For me, it’s music or a book I’ve underlined parts of… When it comes to music it has a way of being easily accessible and enjoyable once you…

Work In Weight

You know, work talks and bullshit walks… There’s no quantity in it if there’s no quality and as you’re determining the output, you’ve got to also analyse the weight behind it. If you believe in yourself, your craft then the message will reach the intended parties. Foundation. Substance. Acknowledgement. All aligned to feed into a thought process to start, participate and conclude – quick maths.…

…But Play Harder

What’s the point of the sweat and tears if there’s no excitement and happiness to follow? Not that these are mutually exclusive, but commonly perceived as “positive outweighs/comes after the negative” in swift motion. Having the work ethic to allow deep, dark thought to mentally paralyse you at times be then followed by honouring that moment with relief, satisfaction of joyful gratification Play…

N For Natural

Accumulating personal wealth will be attributed to being your authentic self, what you like and don’t like, how you agree and disagree on things. Standing in your purpose – no matter what that is and showing that to the world. This can be done in many forms and understood in so many more… Natural things come easy, whereas all the rest doesn’t and it’s plain to see. If you’re not good at lying…

We Work Hard…

Being prompted to reminisce on how chill things used to be – wild though, to remember such times of tranquillity. So in conversation recently, I stated how “Sunday’s were that day we sat and waited and just chilled” then shocked myself in the revelation – how much I’d forgotten, working a lot recently and not resting enough… Work is necessary, for many reasons but for some of us it’s the…

Boundary Setting Priorities

Making things comfortable for you to complete what you need to, within reason, is a must. If your creative environment and process is not conducive to your creation and development, why would you continue to work in chaos and create through carnage? Spending time on setting up a process takes time but you’ll know you have it, when you get there… A priority is comfortability – you’re working from…

M For Meditate

This isn’t about sitting cross legged, eyes closed because we try not to look at things with a stereotypical vision. Also, when are we actually getting a chance to even sit? Due to the speed in which we allow life to take us, sometimes. That’s why meditation is a necessary necessity and works well being completed in any environment… Any situation can require us to take a breath, a workplace…

When It Connects

(no title)

Just like lines to dots, your mind goes into overdrive when it all connects to where it fits perfectly. The feeling when this happens is hap-exi-gre-gojndnw, but even when it doesn’t happen right away – when you’re in that feeling just after, makes it seem like the past plays were just a thing… Going off that, when it’s the confusion stage and you’re trying to fit the triangle through the circle…
