Failure + Time. The Inches Are All Around Us

It is scary the inches between thought and action. I mean it has never been a strong point for me but now I have fine tuned how I track things and I am it scares me how often things just miss the ship point. I often talk about how nice the 48 people were who lent their insight to my "Bernie Superpower questionnaire" (inspired by Christina Canters) - the part that I glossed over and has come up from more than one person I have collaborated with is about - my reliability. One sentence stopped m

90 Days of Massive Action #2 (Prequel)

Mandela was pacing the room, he was forced to walk in circles around the small conference table in the middle of the meeting room at 90 Mainyard. Ghandi was drawing on the white board in between a mind map the developers had left and the business canvas the musicians had left, to Mandela's annoyance Ghandi was making faces and animals. Nelson, this one could be a swastika if I rubbed out the number 2 said Ghandi with a cheeky smile. Why are you so annoyed today? It is not good for your brand i

Getting it all in.

As #Babybernie has grown up I have shouted "focus" at him when he was doing things like learning to eat with a fork for the first time or was holding onto the sofa to try and walk. This killer comedy line has come back to bite me in the arse. The arse bite happened at the Rural Hub in Italy at the OuiShare summit, every time I was presenting a project or suggesting something in front of the community - yes in those precious moments when everyone is obligated to at least look like they were lis

Birthday Blog - Hi, Great To Be Back!

Usually I hide when it is my birthday and don't tell anyone. Last year I hid under the big tree in our friends garden in a little village in Poland. I am motivated to write this because the journey from that tree to my birthday this year has been important. (Well important for me anyway). The turning points are best described in trips. The trip to Poland to visit our dear friends enabled me to finally start to reconnect with myself and the deep amazing awe when I met #supercoolwife in Kraków in

90 Days of Massive Action #01

I think I am finally there. While we were up on a mountain in Italy for the OuiShare summit a lot of things came together for me. At one point I was chatting and said I am not sure why I came, even more so, I brought #babybernie too and he did not know why I came either. So the headline is that I left full of a calm zest and purpose. What should have been the end of the road again for me turned into one of the best months in my life. I would even dare to say that I woke up after a long slee

Seven Groovy Things That Make @90Mainyard my #coworking home

I have been living at 90Mainyard for well over two years now. I found my bubble of coworking bliss via Alex Butlers Kindred HQ Meet Up and have never looked back. The peace and quiet of this place played a significant roll in me scrabbling out of depression and into embracing podcasting and blogging with enthusiasm of a sailor in a brothel with a credit card. These are a few things that make 90Mainyard the best coworking venue in London – that is by an Olympic Park and canal. 1. It has a full

Hells Teeth! I should have told you this sooner...

One of the best-kept secrets to being connected is co-working, the next best-kept secret is your tribe. I have found getting out of your "space" to co-work is brilliant for both your productivity and your soul. This is whether you work for a big shiny corporate or are a freelancer like me. In their respective books Mitch Joel and Lisa Gansky, who are way smarter than me talk about the “friction” and “collision” of ideas between people that end up being called things like “Kickstarter” “Ai

Going to see Seth

Suddenly it all seemed to fit into place. I'd been feeling very crap, lacking focus and felt overwhelmed all week, actually all month, maybe even all year. My head hurt, my body hurt and I just blurred out most days. I'd slipped into everything slightly being someone else's fault, which even if it is someone else's fault is a crap place to operate from. I wondered how long I'd been walking around with people going "do you think he realises?" The strain must show in my face, I am always p
