Approach challenging topics head on. Avoiding them doesn’t make them any better.

Mix And Mingle
It’s how you find new opportunities, business partners, ideas, solutions and adventure. Get out there. Mix it up a little.
Stay Hungry
Keep pursuing better and more. Not in a crazed un-disciplined way but in a focused manner. Having a purpose and being hungry to achieve it Is worth more than bars of gold.
Small Steps Add Up
Giant leaps of progress are brilliant. You feel you are really moving. But each small step adds up too. So remember to celebrate every little step. These are the building blocks to your incredible future.
Keep Calm And Carry On
A great British saying. If we can remember this at times of challenge, we will win the day.
Model Desired Behaviour
Whether it is with your employees, teammates, children or community at large, model the behaviour you desire to see from them. Be honest with yourself whether you are really modelling the desired behaviour all the time, or just when you feel like it.
Let People Be Responsible
Rather than tell people, sometimes it’s better to ask them. Let them be the person having to come up with a good answer. Often you’ll be surprised at how they rise to the occasion.
Enjoy This Moment
No matter how good or tough, enjoy this moment, right here, right now. Savour the next one minute. See how many wonderful things go through your mind in 60 seconds. Go.
Book Time For Walks
Walks are great. They are very good for your overall well-being, both mental and physical. It’s a good time to clear your head, have new thoughts, see new things, listen to books or podcasts or chat with a friend, in person or on the phone. Make walking time a daily priority. You’ll thank me later.
What Motivates You?
Would you rush into a burning building to save a child? If so, why? Honestly. Would you lend a friend £1,000? Is it your risk tolerance at play here? Or perhaps you’re a giving, charitable or empathetic person?
What motivates people fascinates me.
