How Nobody Believing in My Dreams Taught Me to Believe in Myself

I remember the first time I told some family friends that my dream was to run my own business. I was 15, filled with hope and passion. I felt so proud to tell these people I’d just met how I’d been running 25 websites and had just been offered a freelance web design job. I… Read More How Nobody Believing in My Dreams Taught Me to Believe in Myself

It’s been nine months since my last post and yet again, I’ve struggled to keep on top of my blogging. But I’m writing today because the past nine months has been a whirlwind of emotions.

Why the World Needs You

I often like to think of our world as an ‘ecosystem’, but not in the way that the word is commonly used. I believe that in this world that we’re living in, each of us plays a very important role. Through the use of our talents, our skills, our gifts we make the world a better place.… Read More Why the World Needs You

Success Means No Excuses

Imagine you’re going for a job interview the next day. It’s for a position you’ve had your eye on for a while. You’ve been preparing for weeks, practising your responses, laying out the right outfit. You’ve got everything down pat. Then you get a phone call. Maybe someone close to you has passed away. Maybe… Read More Success Means No Excuses

There is No Success Without Failure

It’s incredible how fast your perception of a situation can change. Once upon a time, I thought nobody was reading my blog. In April 2011, I set up this blog to write about my parenting experiences so others would feel less alone. As the months went by and the time cut into my busy schedule… Read More There is No Success Without Failure

Why Success Requires Sacrifice

As I write this post, my household is dead silent. My three young children are asleep in bed and it’s almost midnight.

Why You Should Never Give Up

An old friend once wisely said to me: “It is not the smartest people that end up being the most successful. It is the most hard working”.
