You can’t stop a hailstorm

It’s peak season, the hours are big and we are making hay while the sun shines, and I’m also drinking more so take that for what it’s worth. I’ve managed to give myself a day off today, the narrative being to rest. The problem is, not doing any of the 300 jobs needed around theContinue reading “You can’t stop a hailstorm”

After 4 years owning a Food van what have I learnt

Sometime last week we hit the milestone of four years, whilst this is a nice moment, to be honest it doesn’t mean anything in the scheme of things. On reflection, I still feel new to the space, the world of business and still feel far from a success. Now don’t get this twisted, this isn’tContinue reading “After 4 years owning a Food van what have I learnt”

The elusive Work Life Balance

In writing this I don’t mean to upset anyone, judge how you choose to spend your time, question your ambition or frankly make you think I care how “you do you”. As long as you try to do the right thing on occasion without being a dick, then you are alright in my book. NowContinue reading “The elusive Work Life Balance”

Sometimes it’s just a hard week

Originally I typed this blog after a hard week, one where I was ready to just give up. The truth is it was just a way to get a few things of my chest and rant. Like the process of writing an angry letter and never posting it (make sure you don’t post them!). ItContinue reading “Sometimes it’s just a hard week”

Compounding your mum

Yes, I admit it is a silly and crude title, but it’s a hook point (a concept I once read about, it gets your Attention whilst mindlessly scrolling ). It’s been a long while since I’ve blogged, far too long in fact. It’s not apparent that it’s been missed by anyone though, in fact IContinue reading “Compounding your mum”

A Question of work?

So as the grains of sand fall through the life glass, another week has past in the blink of an eye. As we now approach December, life will become warp speed and a bit of a blur. As the frost covers the cars, the grass crunches under foot and the morning air is crisp it’sContinue reading “A Question of work?”

The positive side of mistakes

“I made a mistake”, four words, four little words that have the power to be self destructive or self motivating. The pain and embarrassment will still be the same but the outlook and direction of recovery will vary completely on which path is chosen. This week hasn’t gone my way financially. From car repairs, toContinue reading “The positive side of mistakes”

The Universe Knows Best

It’s funny, but sometimes the smallest moment can change your mindset. A moment that is insignificant in many ways, I had been in the down cycle of energy, that made me more reflective which is never a bad thing, but the picture seemed more pessimistic than optimistic and although we were getting by I hadContinue reading “The Universe Knows Best”

A step Back to the future

To start an apology. I was really hoping to push myself to writing a weekly blog, gaining some traction and momentum. The truth of the matter is I haven’t. Sometimes I have the time with no idea of what to say so divert to something more trivial, family oriented or just plain right lazy. SinceContinue reading “A step Back to the future”

IN NO MANS LAND

As I drift through another week in the fog of uncertainty that is hospitality during the pandemic, it is time to take stock, figure out where I stand and what’s to come. I have had some good luck regarding a job though, the day before my interview at a supermarket I received a phone callContinue reading “IN NO MANS LAND”
