If you don’t know why you’re doing what you’re doing at work… or anywhere else for that matter… you’re in trouble!
The bottom line of fulfilling work is that it contains an expression of your passion… Your mission on earth, your beam-me-up-Scottie! And that comes from your Passion, your vital life energy geyser; the pulsating life energy which flows through your arteries and veins. Read more…
Seems to be the human journey is to get born ready to be the most loving-humane-potential-passion-bundle-possible… only to get screwed up along the way. Fact of life.
And it’s time to get over it! Read more…
Passion is your vital life energy geyser. No quibbling! No arguments!
How do I know? Because the first 30 odd years of my life I was what I call ‘living-dead’.

No mortar boards, gowns or diplomas. Just pitch your business to a panel of such high profile people you could get vertigo without much effort.
Back at the prep session, the trainer asked who’d like to present and practise their pitch in front of the whole group… like now! I promise you, my hand went up so fast and furiously, I almost tore my arm out of its socket.
