Everything is subjective, but some things are more subjective than others. Today it seems to me the majority of us market ourselves using social media. Sometimes our message is directly related to our careers, sometimes we wish to share a part of our personal lives. Perhaps you like me may also have a tendency to post only the highlights and at…

Perhaps you have spent more time consuming content lately? I know have. And what’s more given the current situation who could blame us. As someone who makes content for a living what I’m about to say might not be the smartest business decision, but it’s an idea that I know has truly helped me so I hope that perhaps it might do the same for someone else out there… My intuition says that consuming less content is better for you.

In good or bad times, humour always helps. You would be hard-pressed to find a human being that doesn’t like to laugh. Think amongst your friends and peers, I’m sure many of the most memorable ones are those you find the funniest.

I love the idea of someone who ‘creates’ things and produces real tangible value for other people, but struggle to fully understand what being ‘creative’ in your work truly means. To contradict myself even further I really enjoy when someone’s work is completely different to anything else we’ve seen before, but…

I haven’t posted a blog in over six months. It seems with today’s preoccupation with posting content ‘hyper-regularly’ maybe like me you fear taking some time away from work commitments for yourself. If you’re also self-employed you may well know the trepidation of blocking off any ‘holiday time’ for the fear of opportunities you might miss that arise while…

I’ve written a blog post every week for the past year. And first and foremost, to each of you that’s taken a few minutes out of your day to read it, thank you, sincerely. I hope that somewhere along the way there was a couple of sentences that offered you some value or help in whatever you are working on in your career. Einstein is often credited with the famous quote “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again…

It’s up to you to make it happen. Lately a close friend and I have been privileged to spend time working on a project with two incredible gentleman. …
