Choose your view

I work in an office room with no natural daylight, tucked away downstairs in our home.  It is a large room, with plenty of space, just no view.  I love my office as it is my private space to create, to focus, to give clients my full attention and I have created my own views,Continue reading "Choose your view"

Now that’s my kind of choice!

It is important to remember that choices can be fun, light-hearted and a joy to make.  I started my day with my usual choice - Lavazza Rossa or Lavazza extra creamy?  That's my kind of choice! 😉  The second big choice of my day landed in my lap as I sat with my coffee toContinue reading "Now that’s my kind of choice!"

Choose a smile

It's such a simple thing; a smile requires so little effort and creates such an impact. We have to choose to do it yet often we choose a response that results in confrontation or just dis-engagement. I remember when I was in my wheelchair and people would stare at me. It made me feel uncomfortableContinue reading "Choose a smile"

Audrey’s Theme

Today's blog was inspired by Audrey Birt.  Audrey shared her theme tune for the week on my last Monday blog, and it is wonderful   It reminded me of some of the choices I have made; to do it all - someday. This sentiment connected with me in a powerful way. It's not about putting offContinue reading "Audrey’s Theme"

Choose to dream

Many people are inspirational in the way they have the courage to stand by their dreams.  To choose to focus on a dream, a goal that seems huge to others, can be a lonely experience.  So often, those around you will not share the vision you have and cannot understand your commitment - your choiceContinue reading "Choose to dream"
