Hi.

So, I’ve always kept a diary.

It’s been a bit on and off over the years – strangely enough I was a more reliable writer when I was more in need of an outlet, so it’s always a been a bit of a form of therapy. I was a terrible writer and speller as a child – I was pleased in Year 6 when I scored 3 out of 30 for a spelling test – but it never seemed to matter that much, I just wrote anyway.

Over the past few years, a diary hasn’t really felt right in the same way as it used to do. I guess my thoughts have grown as I have, and as I get older and expand how I see the world I need more space for my thoughts.

To be clear, this is for me. If no one else ever reads these posts then that’s probably as it should be. I don’t claim to be any kind of expert, and I don’t believe my ideas are of any more value than any one else’s.

I’m going to write about my thoughts on work, engagement, productivity, balance, skills, and wellbeing. If you find it useful that’s great, if you disagree that’s ok too, and you can let me know if you like.
