I’m in Phoenix right now. Not what you would expect

After shaking off a nasty back injury and an awful bout of the flu, I went for my first run in a month. It was slow, cold, and gave me a slight chafe, but I got it in. I’m backing it up by bringing my runners to Phoenix tomorrow for round 2. I have a…

Today was a big day work-wise, in fact, the biggest for some time. Since the alarm went off at 6:30, to while I write this in bed at 9, it’s been go, go, go. Most of today was spent building a proposal for potentially a new opportunity, which is very exciting. It was about 10…

After a month featuring five flights, three weddings, one back injury, and one nasty bout of Covid, it felt good this morning to wake up, go for a walk in the beautiful sunshine, have a coffee, and get stuck into Monday. While there are going to be a few bug bears this week (flights to…

When living in a new city, you have to take every opportunity you can to make new friends. Today was one of them. I have a good friend Niv, who my wife introduced me to last year. He’s from New Zealand originally, but now happily lives in Denver. While we have done a few things…

One of my goals…

A couple of friends and I have recently formed a weekly check-in group to keep us accountable, based on the concept outlined by Nick Crocker. You can read it HERE. The basic idea is that a small group of peers, who know you well and care about your progress, can provide a great sounding board…

When I started this blog, I created a roadmap for how I wanted this blog to go. Well, yesterday I hit day 30, which suggested that now I encourage close friends to follow me. Exciting. I’m not entirely sure what my strategy to achieve that will be. I think I will start with sharing the…

I have been asked by one of my best friend’s to be his best man and organise his Stag Do. He did the same for me many years ago, and it is an honour to do the favour. Organising things isn’t my strong suit, but friendship is, so I am giving myself plenty of time…
