Writing Yourself Happy
“Writing is an exploration. You start from nothing and learn as you go.” - E. L. Doctorow I have written and spoken many times about strategies for creating authentic happiness, and the recurring theme has always been “Happiness is not something you can pursue; it is who you are”.

Your Big Experiment
“The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result.” - Albert Einstein Over the years it has become apparent to me that for many people on a journey of personal development or spiritual path, the subject of science often doesn't sit very well. It is as if taking a scientific approach to living in the world somehow devalues the ‘art’ of living and finding true fulfillment.

The 'Well Wishing' Principle
“Envy is the art of counting the other fellow's blessings instead of your own." - Harold Coffin Living in London I get to travel on public transport A LOT, and for someone in my line of work that provides a fabulous opportunity to observe the quirkiness of human nature in action. It is never my intention to deliberately earwig on other people’s conversations, but sometimes when you’re on a packed tube (with a stray armpit in your face) it is pretty hard not to!

Life Can Be Easier
"Life is what you think it is, and gives you what you dare to dream it will.” - Anon One aspect of the human condition that I find fascinating is the way that we overcome the challenges in our lives tends to be consistent with how easy or difficult we first imagine those challenges to be. We pre-empt the obstacles that are likely to present difficulties, and run a mental rehearsal of our ability to deal with them. Of course, this is a very handy skill to have if you use that rehearsal time wisely, to solve any potential problems before they occur.

The Ultimate Time Management Principle
"Things which matter most must never be at the mercy of things which matter least.” - Johann Wolfgang Goethe We all have the same 24 hours in everyday, and the difference that makes the difference for each of us is how we choose to fill them.

The Game Of Joy
"Joy is a net of love in which you can catch souls.” - Mother Teresa There are two things that have always astounded me about us Human Beings. The first is just how complex we can be with our thinking and behaviour.

The Important 40% of Happiness
"Action may not always bring happiness, but there is no happiness without action.” - Benjamin Disraeli I believe we are living in very exciting times when it comes to our understanding of what makes us truly happy in the long term. Up until relatively recently (well, about 10 years ago actually) the general perception of the personal development and self-growth movement was pretty much split down the middle.

The Art of Having a Bad Day
A lot of personal development teachers and motivational guru’s like to drill home that the key to success is ‘State Management’, i.e. your ability to manipulate your physical and emotional being so that you are constantly aligned with success producing thoughts and actions.

The Antidote to Fear
"Death is not the biggest fear we have; our biggest fear is taking the risk to be alive - the risk to be alive and express what we really are.” - Don Miguel Ruiz Wouldn’t it be wonderful have a fool proof strategy for getting unstuck and moving forward again whenever you find yourself in the grip of fear? I once had an almost obsessive desire to discover ‘the magic formula’ for overcoming fear in any situation. Not just so I could use it as a coaching tool but more so because I felt I could really do with it in my own life.

The Freedom Formula
"Everything can be taken from a man but one thing; the last of the human freedoms - to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way" Victor Frankl One of the things I love most about coaching others is when they really get that creating more of what they want in their lives doesn’t have to be complicated.

How to Do Optimism
“I can't change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails to always reach my destination.” - Jimmy Dean When I was a kid I would imagine that I could make things happen just by thinking about them. For example, if my best friend was coming over to play I’d look out for him from my bedroom window and try to control the exact moment he would come cycling around the corner into my road (I was an odd child!). I would close my eyes, count to ten and then open them again, expecting to see him arriving right on cue.

Reversing Problems
"The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them.” - Albert Einstein Have you ever noticed how much easier it is to spot something that’s wrong as opposed to everything else that is working well?
