I Am So Angry

I am so £ucking angry, except I am not. Let me rephrase that, I am aware of trigger points. No that is not what I mean either. So the above few lines are a bit like my head is sometimes and the impression I give to people, particularly the people who are closest and I have known the longest. Headspace The meditation app on my phone tells me I have enjoyed 508 sessions lasting an average of 22 minutes each since signing up in 2013. Add to this at least another 50 sessions in other apps, Echo

Falling Towards Poland - Part One

It was spring 2004 and yet again I was standing at a urinal in the Hamilton Hall in Liverpool Street Station in London pissing out another 10 rounds of shit beer with a chaser of vodka and Redbull. Everything was too much or not enough, I was more lost than a something in a something. The posters inviting me to consider a career as a Witherspoon Pub manager in the toilet were starting to develop a very unwelcome allure, this would mean I could plug into something and not have to think.

World Of Bernie - FAQ's

I got myself into a little bit of very constructive trouble this week. With two clicks on my phone, I was part of two blogging challenges. Day Two of the ProBlogger on is right a FAQ post. You can listen to Darren's podcast instructions here. Being a Freelancer, a 'hired gun, an independent economic agent I don't have a lot of FAQ's like an accountant or VP of Product does. I thought long and hard about these so you had better take notes. 1. Are you on your way Bernie? I am so shit at bein

I'm Living On Process Street

Today? Already? Bloody hell this is tricky. But I have discovered something so groundbreaking it is going to be the making of my blogging career. I can share it right here, right now before anyone else in the World finds out - think of it as your exclusive reader first. Here it is: Having a process helps. Take a few minutes to let that sink in and you'll be able to appreciate the true extent of that "pro tip" I just shared with you. Making Ideas Happen I have always been a bit crap at the

Take It To The Mat And Pull The Trigger

Sorry to keep you.So there I was dicking around about which pearl of my infinite wisdom to share with you today.Sorry to keep you. I had a lot on, like checking every blog about blogging on the planet to be sure I was doing it right.Then I had to check a page on my website that even I don't look at, so no one like you is going to take a glance.By this time I was so fucking bored with my attitude I was going to set fire to myself as a diversion.Life is urgentOver the last few years as I swam uphi

Zoom Zoom Zoom We're Going To The Moon.....

And we're back in the room It only seems ten minutes since I was last here armed with a keyboard and a stream of not very much to say, I have got the bug again for blogging like demon and it came from a combination of things. 1. I have been posting my Instagram photos into my Day One Journal with an IFTTT recipe, so when I drift in there to write something I am met with a photo and off I go. The 'I am sitting down to create' thing has never, ever, ever, ever worked for me. What does work is st

Why I Don’t Blog Every Day

I just don’t know what to wear! So far I have walked around my room, made some breakfast, read ten things and then played about in a couple of other apps and now I am here. I have just got #Babybernie to superglue me to the table and here we go! Hell’s Teeth Batman All I have to do is write, and even worse this feels like the type of conversation I would be having with myself in 2009 about blogging. I remember little Meet Up’s I would run in London with my mates where we got together to wri

Why You Should Listen To Me About Productivity (Even Though I Am Crap At It)

Now is exactly the right time to post this blog. Which I thought was not the right time because there is a silly little part of me that wants to make you think I know what I am doing. Nil's and I are working on a productivity e-book and the best insight into the e-book is how we deal with our own productivity. Needless to say, Nils always will have the upper hand as he is a developer and it is of German origin. But that is why I am so amazingly good at productivity as I have always struggled
