Hot, damn hot, followed by hot and sticky

Posted on by philipdodson


Life like the weather is a conundrum. 

We spend all year wishing for summer, for hot weather and we spend big sums of money on flying off to hot places on our holidays. 

Yet a few days of heat and everyone is wanting it to be cooler. 

Often in life we wish for something and when it comes we don’t like or want something else. 

Being contrary is common. It comes from a habit and conditioning that gets us to seek and strive for what we don’t have. 

Contented people seek for less and that’s bad for consumption, compliance and business. 

Being happy with what we have removes the pressure for more and leads to contentment, meaning and joy. 

By the way the weather is the weather so just be happy. 

Make a connection

Posted on by philipdodson

If all that you do today is make a connection with another human.

Someone new or someone you’ve not connected with for a while.

Reach out and connect with other humans.

Connect every day as often as you can, seek others that are like-minded, seek people who you can inspire with your dreams and leadership.

We are nothing without connection to other people, it’s how we turn our ideas into creations by sharing, it is how we learn, it is how we become energised, it is how we find love, it is how we can give to the world what we owe, it’s how we inspire others, it’s how change happens.

Purposeful and meaningful interactions.

The world doesn’t owe us, we owe it to ourselves and the world to make the connections that fulfil our purpose.

We all can and need to make our difference.
