What are you aiming for in life? What are you hoping to achieve by your actions today?
We all have hopes and fears. Hopes that our lives go well, we achieve our dreams and have a fulfilled life. Fears that it doesn't go well, we fail to reach our dreams...

I've not been too enough gigs. Not as many as I'd like. That needs to change.
Living in London, there's something happening every night, always something to do. In fact, the challenge isn't what's good that's on tonight, but what do I say yes to?
I've been in London for...

Misreading situations. Reading into things that aren’t there. Missing things that are. It’s easy to do.
When something matters to you, it’s easy to hone in on the details. It’s easy to over analyse, to put yourself under pressure to make the right moves, to play the right cards.
I’ve...

I'm ill.
It's not too bad. Nothing dangerous or painful. Just the common cold. But I've not been ill like this in quite a while.
My head is full of gunk, I'm tired and it's difficult to focus.
At times like this I wonder whether it's better to push through...

I’m sat on the train, leaving my parents home and heading back into London.
It’s been a good weekend seeing some of my family, lots of memories made, mostly good.
On Sunday, I woke early and went for a 27km trail ride through the forest with my bro. It was...

I’m quite a few days into this daily writing now, and it occurs to me that most of my thoughts are on similar topics.
Things like decisions, focus, perspective and the like. Many days I’m thinking about similar things to the days before.
Maybe that’s a good thing. Maybe consistency...

Family. We grow older but we don’t totally grow up. The same character persists, it just matures over time.
Sometimes our bad traits mature and develop negatively, though our hope is that the good ones come through more as we age.
Coming away for a weekend with my family I’m...

It’s late at night after a long day, but I write words on the daily so that’s what I’ll do.
It’s been a great day spending time with family. This morning my bro, bro-in-Law and I cycled a 30km loop through the forest.
Then we went swimming for a couple...

I’m on a train.
On a train to see my family. Well, some of them.
My family are spread across the world, you see. My bro is in Canada and one of my sisters is in Australia, I’m in London and the rest are back in Essex. We’re pretty spread...

It's late at night and I almost forgot to write some words.
I normally write in the morning, but I snoozed too long this morn and so getting home tonight I wasn't expecting to need to write. It's normally done.
So much of life is about trust, risk and...
