Croeso i Myddfai

 can it really be three months since we arrived In Myddfai, in our little piece of Welsh heaven? The time here seems to work on a different schedule at a slower less stressful pace. There are days when it’s suddenly ten o’clock and all I’ve done is feed the birds. It’s wonderful. it is alsoContinue reading “Croeso i Myddfai”

Making mood choices

“Don’t be so moody” a much-repeated comment from mothers of teenagers, partners (of both sexes) and many long-suffering friends.  Yet is strikes me that this is a strange remark;  we are constantly moody.  All our actions (or lack of action) can be influenced by our mood.  Every conversation or interaction will be impacted by ourContinue reading “Making mood choices”

Choose positive language

Create a positive message not a melodrama As I looked at my Facebook timeline today, I was so disappointed to see how many people are posting messages with negative rather than positive language. They include a commonly used sentence on these posts now “I know 99% of you won’t re-post this….”  What a strange choiceContinue reading “Choose positive language”

Choose not to “Try”

  “I’ll try” – what do you really mean when you say these words?  “I probably won’t”   or “I’m sure I won’t be able to”?  That’s a choice.  A choice you make regularly and without thinking.  “I’ll try to stick to it this time” becomes your mantra and your choice to accept failure, beforeContinue reading “Choose not to “Try””

Choose not to fall

I loved this video from Daniel Ilabaca speaking about parkour and how it allowed him to see his choices and the power he had to embrace them.  Embracing our choices and taking responsibility for where they can lead us is demonstrated beautifully.  Enjoy.

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 to play

My morning has been full-on today!  Starting as always with #thebreakfastclub at 6.45am on Twitter which was promptly followed by two client sessions and a trip to the shops before my next client at 11.15.  It could seem overwhelming – but I still choose time for play.  Time to play with a ball (inside today)Continue reading “Choose to play”

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”

Celebrating Choice

Choices are often tiny little decisions in our lives that seem, at the time, insignificant or unimportant.  It is often only once the actions of our choices have been played out that we see how important a choice truly was.  Today, I’m celebrating the choices that lead to this moment – right where I amContinue reading “Celebrating Choice”
