The Best Time to Be Alive. Ever.

Posted on January 15, 2026

What an incredible time to be alive. The basic living in most westernised countries is better than even kings and queens had prior to the 20th century.

Fresh water. Peace. Food variety and abundance. Smartphones and all they can do and access. Healthcare and the ability to cure and postpone death. Travel ease with cars, Ubers, airplanes and soon spaceships. Flushing toilets. Fridges and freezers.

Social mobility is easier than ever. The playing field is the most even it has ever been. It will never be perfect and sometimes you’re going to have speed bumps, but, oh my. This is soo much better than even the 18th century, never mind the sixth century and all of the others.

Accountability

Posted on January 14, 2026

If you’re looking for someone or something to blame, start by looking in the mirror. You probably had something to do with it.

The sooner you can recognise that you often create the environment or situation that you’re complaining about, the sooner you can adjust your behaviour or attitude and improve the whole situation.

No need to act like an entitled, perfect, victim. You do things that irritate people and situations. Own up to it and make some basic adjustments.

Everyone can breathe easier after this and they will all get along much better going forward.

Write

Posted on January 7, 2026

Write things down. Write out your plans and activities, your dreams and desires. Write your goals.

When you do this put the full date on the page. Years from now you’ll be amazed at what you wrote.

Day One

How did it go? Did you stick to your plan? Waver at all? Did you stay resolute? Did you shift 1% to the better?

Keep making daily progress. In 30 days you’ll be proud of what you’ve achieved and you’ll be unrecognisable.

Powerful Stories

Posted on December 26, 2025

You can really get immersed in a powerful story. The characters, location, themes, struggles and victories intertwine to make it a high impact experience.

We’re watching the Star Wars movies again at our house. Hard to believe these were made 20 and nearly 50 years ago. And they seem to stand the test of time. The story and the lessons these movies convey are so powerful. They are classic concepts that are at the heart of humanity and how things work in our universe.

Time Flies

Posted on December 17, 2025

Have you ever noticed how fast time flies? You go out with a friend for an hour at lunch, which seems like a decent amount of time, and walk away thinking it was barely enough to scratch the surface.

I can meet a good friend for four hours and walk away thinking of all the things I forgot to ask and wanted to know. It’s crazy.

It’s a good idea to make a list of all the topics and questions you want to cover beforehand so you’re at least prepared.

What Were You Aiming At?

Posted on December 16, 2025

Did you hit it? Or did you miss? If you can’t tell, it is probably because you didn’t clearly define the target you really wanted. And you may have been vague on what you really needed to do.

‘Grow the business’, is too vague. You would need to say that you would grow it from £800,000 turnover to £2.1 million turnover between January 1st 2026 and December 31st 2026. In addition, you want profit to grow from £80,000 to £250,000 in the same time period.

Profit margin is growing at a faster pace than turnover as we get more sales while being more efficient.

Get clearer about what and when you are aiming for.

The clearer the target ????, the greater the likelihood is that you’ll hit it where you want.

The Road Ahead

Posted on December 13, 2025

Keep an eye on the road ahead. If you look away too long, you could find yourself off the road and in a difficult predicament.

It may be more interesting to watch the trees go by and see the animals and birds. However, sometimes not paying attention can be a life or death outcome.

Stay alert.
