21. The age at which Americans are legally considered adults. The time in life when Australians make an excuse to have another party when they've already celebrated their 18th. Scandium, the element from Scandinavia with an atomic mass of 21. The title of the box office movie about a bunch of MIT students who take … Continue reading Day 21 – Worlds greatest blog, card counting and Scandinavians – #300wordsaday
Day 18 – Observations from 18 straight days of blogging – #300wordsaday
I feel like a blogging virgin. All this blogging stuff feels new to me all over again. Even though I've been blogging for a few years, the last 18 days so far have been an eye opener. Coming into October I was a bit lost for direction when it came to topics, trying to find … Continue reading Day 18 – Observations from 18 straight days of blogging – #300wordsaday
The Real Reason I blog – It’s Not What You Expect
I actually searched in google the other day "why people blog" and came across a number of posts from people who not surprisingly had large followings whom gave long lists of reasons why blogging is good. But I didn't find much from those just starting out, you know, the average parent for example who blogs, loves to … Continue reading The Real Reason I blog – It’s Not What You Expect
Day 15 – The desire to explore the world -#300wordsaday
Over dinner this evening my wife and I discussed what it would be like to pack up and move to another country, to explore the world, to give our children an insight into the big world we live in, to create opportunities for our lives outside the environment with which we currently reside. Once I … Continue reading Day 15 – The desire to explore the world -#300wordsaday
Day 11 – Kicking off the week strong – #300wordsaday
A Snapchat extract from this week - warning - some language ;) Wait... what day is it? I thought it was Monday, I just realised it's Tuesday (well at least here in Sydney it is) and in 61mins it will be Wednesday -- week is going quick. I just finished 2 hours of late … Continue reading Day 11 – Kicking off the week strong – #300wordsaday
Day 9 – For 2.5 years you read, now I say ‘thank you’ – #300wordsaday
For todays post on this 30 day blogging journey (technically 31 for October) I wanted to selflessly say thank you. I feel I might have at least 1 regular reader here (hopefully lol) so to you, I'm grateful. I respect your time and if you've given a few minutes of it to me to read, … Continue reading Day 9 – For 2.5 years you read, now I say ‘thank you’ – #300wordsaday
Day 7 – My current favourites & Friday big week wrap up – #300wordsaday
This week has been a big one -- I started this #300wordsaday challenge and I began studying a new online course by Alex Beadon which by the way you should check out at killerimpressions.com. Although it was a shorter week here in Australia due to Labour Day I had it cut even shorter staying at home … Continue reading Day 7 – My current favourites & Friday big week wrap up – #300wordsaday
Day 4 – I’m studying a new course around making a business out of yourself #300wordsaday
Today I'm a tad excited. I've been counting down the days till a course by one of my mentors Alex Beadon starts and today it did so I've been busy thumbing my way through plenty of engagement in her Facebook group. Always learning. In short the course is about 'making money being you'. Win! I've again … Continue reading Day 4 – I’m studying a new course around making a business out of yourself #300wordsaday
Day 3 – A blog revamp, financial forecast and playing doctor #300wordsaday
I've always kept myself busy, taking on lots of projects and goals at anyone time. I get itchy and anxious sitting around doing nothing if I feel unproductive. Don't get me wrong - I like to unwind and chill but if I'm feeling stagnant I need to do something. On that note, here we are … Continue reading Day 3 – A blog revamp, financial forecast and playing doctor #300wordsaday
Day 2 – Thirty day turn around – changing my triad #300wordsaday
To say I felt vulnerable after my day 1 post would be an understatement. I've never been brutally honest before about the background behind my life. I've blogged about the struggle of being a high achiever but I've always written in the third person. To tell my story was a challenge. It's interesting to see … Continue reading Day 2 – Thirty day turn around – changing my triad #300wordsaday
