Well hi there! I hope you are having a wonderful Easter break wherever you are. My weekend has mostly consisted of spending time with friends and knuckling down on some blog and business work. It's exciting times, friends! On that note, I wanted to share some real life goal-setting stories with you . It's all good and well for me to write an eBook about it but I thought it might help to get some real life insight as to where I'm… Read more »
This week I had one of those experiences when you realise how lucky you are and how good life can be if you just open your heart and accept it. I was exhausted, I had tickets to a show that I purchased months ago and I was feeling stressed with how much I want to get done outside of my normal work hours. I was tired and a bit grumpy and really didn't want to go out mid-week. I spent… Read more »
So…I wrote a book. It's something that I've always wanted to do and want to do more of in the future so I figured I may as well just go and write the first one so that I can keep moving forward. Know what I mean? In fact, that's kind of what the book is about. It's called 'Get Everything You Want…and More – 20 Tips to Becoming a Kick Ass Goal Setter' and it's all about making yourself accountable… Read more »
Do you ever listen to a song and it feels like it has just reached into your chest and literally touched your inner workings? It could be one you've heard a bunch of times, or one you've never heard before but somehow it just gets to you. That happened to me today. If you're not really into Incubus, that's cool; they're not everyone's cup of tea. But Brandon has an INCREDIBLE voice and he sings this song live with incredible… Read more »
Something happened this week. Or lots of things happened. I feel like I've hit an end of the year slump. Maybe i was expecting the world to end last week and when it didn't, my brain lost it (good job, Tom and Alex). I don't know. My goal for last week was to sit down and do some planning for 2013 but, to be honest, I haven't actually even finished sorting out 2012. Sometimes blogging and being online can be… Read more »
I mentioned the other day that things have been a bit off with me at the moment and I think I have managed to narrow it down to a few things. Two, in particular, that I want to talk about today. Great Expectations The first one is expectations. Have you ever found yourself getting upset at your friend/partner/colleague/family member for something that they did or didn't do only to realise that you placed an expectation on them and they didn't… Read more »
The beginning of May in Sydney brings chilly nights, brown leaves covering the ground, snuggly mornings struggling to get out of bed, a new job and a new role, a visit from my bestie and bringing all the winter coats out as the weather steadily gets colder. But before I get too cosy in almost-Winter May, I wanted to recap April. Long weekends, blogger meet ups, family visits and the launch of my new blog, The Perfect Lipstick, with my… Read more »
Well, there goes January. I hope that 2012 is still looking as bright and hopeful as it was at the beginning of the month when making resolutions, setting goals, and nursing festive season hangovers and food comas! My month (and year) started off pretty tough but things are back in full swing with work and Sydney life and now February is upon us. Here are some of my January blog highlights: And here are some of my favourite photos from… Read more »
I've been thinking (and blogging) about goals and dreams a bit lately. Making my mind up about things and just doing them is a big part of who I am and how I am where I am. For example, when I was 23, I decided I was sick of stupid boys messing with my life and I sat down and wrote a list of all the things I was looking for in my ideal person. I thought about it for… Read more »
