Meditation is often called a practice. A work in progress that is never truly complete. It’s a tool in the cultivation of a mindful life. Discipline is an art of living technique. The commitment to do a thing consistently is, in and of itself, an act of meditation. Repetition is a key facet of success […]
This may sound like an oxymoron for some folks, but discipline is freedom. The simplicity of this statement belies the magic of the action that follows. It’s a powerful way to achieve your goals and to optimise the quality of your life. I stole this mantra from Jocko Willink. He knows about getting things done.
The last but one. It’s a curious thing to be sat here pondering a final note to you, my loyal readers. I’ve just been a walk along the beach in the heat of the midday sun. You know what they say about mad dogs and Englishmen. I spent a good deal of the walk reflecting […]
