Resilience and Longevity – I’m Amazed, 19th June 2024 is THE Day I broke out in to a cold sweat, my heart was pounding so hard I was convinced it was about to explode from my body. It was Friday, 16th June 1989 at precisely 4.07 pm when I was being told by then boss I was being made redundant, for the third time, in my short lived seven year career as an optician. I know what you might be thinking. John, you were an optician and didn’t see it coming? No I didn’t! That weekend I make a bold decision to follow my passion… magic. I love magic. I wondered what would happen if I traded in optic ..read more

Just ask If you come across an obstacle in life do you complain about it, possibly get stressed about it and take no action? Do you let it eat you up inside? Or, do you study the situation and realise that, if you can’t do anything about it you let it go. Or, if you can do something about it, do you take action? One of the basic actions we might need to do, but often forget to do, or find difficult to do is a little action, mentioned in most spiritual teachings, something very basic, we were all taught it when we were young. What’s the action? In a word… ‘ASK’. How many times when you were ..read more

So you think you’re an ordinary person, think again Often we think of inspirational people as being extraordinary. The reality is, they’re really just… ordinary. Think about it. Take any inspirational person, for the sake of illustration, let’s use Steve Jobs. I know he died 2nd October 2011 but he’s an excellent and typical example. A flawed character? He certainly wasn’t perfect but look at what he achieved with Apple. He was also the CEO and majority shareholder of Pixar. Read any biography of any famous person (historical or contemporary) you admire or of any achiever yo ..read more

Attitude – What I learnt the time people changed their attitude towards me About a decade ago I lost a lot of weight. I needed to, I was so big I couldn’t even find a tie that would fit me ? Better still, I’ve managed to maintain my target weight within a few pounds. I mentioned it when recently speaking at a dinner and was asked if I had any observations and insights of how people treated me compared to when was 100 lbs (45Kgs) larger. The most amusing observations and best lessons I learnt was observing the behaviour and attitude towards me of the people who KNEW I lost so much weig ..read more

About change and uncertainty, remember this

About change and uncertainty, remember this We all experience discomfort from time to time, especially when we’re about to go out of our comfort zone or we experience change and uncertainty. More often the discomfort is unfounded and is usually because we’re unsure of what’s going to happen. We think we either might have little or no control or not be able to cope. I’ve observed, certainly if you’re in to personal development and want to become the best version of yourself, we’re often looking for the latest tool, technique or insight to make our lives easier and happy. Which is fine, exce ..read more
