Lost Our Way

We can all feel that we’ve lost our way at times. I had felt like this for the last few months. And not in the same way as when we were travelling – we often got lost and that was part of the adventure! There was no excitement here. A drudge. I could justify this...

Natural Confidence – Do you have it?

Waiting to Feel Confident?

Do you often wait until you feel a certain way before you do something? Perhaps you are waiting to feel confident? You might have had a small nudge in your mind to write that blog or speak to that person, whatever it is, but keep putting it off because you are waiting…. waiting...

Our damn ancestors have caused us untold problems, so we often play safe. They didn’t mean to do this, and in fact, if they hadn’t, you wouldn’t be reading this now. Let me explain. Currently, I am running a programme called Dreams to Reality in 100...
