The week that was 20200509

PROUDEST | MOST GRATEFUL MOMENT

Very grateful to have been invited to present a session for Diane Boorman, CEO and Founder of  Business Enabler and Growth Accelerator at Brand Analytics. It was a great session chatting all about reputation, business and life matters. 

So grateful for more beautiful early morning runs with Bella.

Feeling rather chuffed with myself. Figured out a crochet pattern and made myself a shopping tote bag. 

BIGGEST LESSON THIS WEEK / REMINDER

The above is from Dr Wayne Dyer: 

There are no accidents in an intelligent universe, so all the dark times, accidents, illnesses and broken dreams were part of your spiritual advancement. Embrace them, understand them, accept them, honour them and then transform them in your own way. 

Thought this was quite clever: 

App most during lockdown: Zoom

App least during lockdown: Waze

Technology is NOT the opportunity - Utility is. 

One last one. Was reminded about the importance of learning more by Brad Sugars:

The more you learn, the more you earn. In life, you will be paid for work from either the neck up or the neck down. Neck up pays better, so the more you learn the more earn. 

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

I really miss visiting second hand bookshops. Isn't this by Carlos Ruiz Zafon great: 

"I stepped into the bookshop and breathed in that perfume of paper and magic that strangely no one had ever thought of bottling."

"What would life be if we had no courage to attempt 

anything?" 

Vincent Van Gogh

THIS WEEK I FINISHED READING...

I've been spending my mornings with Carly Fiorina, CEO of HP in the early 2000's. Great lessons, particularly for anyone in the change management space or needing to navigate transformation within their business. 

WHAT MADE ME GIGGLE

So many giggles:
