BLOG Natalie Bennett: Daring Greatly and always in #Beta Natalie Bennett dived on Radio yesterday so of course she can't be Prime Minister. Off with her head! She is meant to be shaping up to pitch to run the country, changing society and challenging the status quo. She can't even speak.The guy interviewing her LOVED it, his perverse radio glee was so ripe I thought I was listening to Jimmy Savile being given the keys to Great Ormond Street Hospital and asked to lock up for the night.As I paced up and down outside Senate House near Russell Square list
BLOG A day in the life of Bernie Of course this would be much more interesting for you to read if I was mud wrestling with Hilary Clinton or had just released a new tune with Bruno Mars. My life is pretty mundane so the last thing you need to do is think I am showing off in this blog post. I enjoy the conversations I have with people about how to get things done or rather overcoming fear, pissing about and procrastinating. That is the grade of 'getting things done' that I mean - I'd hate for you to be intimidated by me mislead
BLOG Why I'm not a writer - YET Ramsey has a blog post by Blog Tyrant that I make myself go back to every so often. "Why you are not a writer" is a list of what we do instead of writing. That list of important things like ‘getting set up to write’ that take longer to get ready than actual writing. I spent last week beating myself up a bit I because I set out to blog everyday in 2015. Blogging everyday is not going well, I write everyday but I don't post every day. I 'forget' or 'wait to finish' a post. Chose yourself The
BLOG I think reading is the best gift you can give a child Every since I met #Babybernie I have been thinking what is the best gift I could give him, what is the one thing that would connect to everything else? The one thing I come up with is reading, being able to read a book a week - so in 10 years he would have read 3,650 books - even if half of them are shit he is still doing well, I think you learn from shit books too. When I was little I could not stop reading, when I was 10 I read nearly every Enid Blyton book in two years, Magic Far Away Tree,
BLOG Ctr Alt Del. So while I was in Argentina.... SO I have been walking around all day thinking about what to blog about. We are back from four weeks in Argentina and everything shifted for the better. Just before we went I was at the end of my emotional string, not in a bad way - more like "Post Post Traumatic Stress." The end of 2014 was so much better than the beginning in my head - I just needed to get to Argentina and not kill anyone on the way there and I'd be done. I had planned it like this: 1. Lisbon Coworking Conference with Copa
BLOG No Complaint Diet Introduce negative people to each other and then run away. Last year I was having breakfast in the kitchen at 90 Mainyard with Tori and started a sentence "Look I know this is a bit cruel and negative but I have to say that xxxx" She stopped me and asked well if it is like that why would you say it. I did stop and thought bloody hell, I do that A LOT. (Even though I don't think I do.) It is as bad as when people say "Look, I have got nothing against {insert ethnic, sexual orientation, religion
BLOG Should I write the title first? Ok so I'll come clean, I have been thinking about this post all week. It was partly written and I was ready to go and then I was not. The one I had ready to go would have been way better than the crap you are going to read now, don't say I did not warn you. In fact I don't really know where to begin. So I'll begin here. Sometime last year me, Andy and Mitch were hanging out at Google in London and Mitch started talking about writers block and James Altucher - actually it was not about James g
BLOG My Berlin Airlift One thing that has already happened with 'blogging everyday' rather than just 'writing everyday' is the 'getting started bit' - I thought it might start with a title, I have read soooooo many pages that say you need to start with a title. For me, at this moment in time it starts wherever it starts - because starting is half done. I have been walking around for about 30 minutes now getting ready to start. I am saying that out loud because for me stupid things always become even more stupid and t
BLOG I think the post I have been avoiding writing all day is this: I am very happy here in Buenos Aires and don't really want to get on that plane at the end of the weekend. This has been one of the best trips of my life. I feel bigger, faster, stronger - that is a song BTW - I know what I mean. The blazing sun and blue sky that follows #Babybernie and I on the way to the super market to by drinking yoghurt in the morning will be missed, I am even scared what it will happen to me when I hit the rancid grey sky of London. When I step outside the door I can fee
BLOG TEDx and Music So there we were half way through TEDx and it was all going well, then Marisa pops on stage and starts talking about music. I have recently been on a mission after discovering musomap via twitter, We needed something to pull together a section of Global Sharing Day and this was it. Funny what shows up when you need it. So Tessa Marchington sails on about how can connect with music and share music, then she mentions the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra which is conducted by Daniel Barenboim an Ar
Uncategorized #TAGtribe Blog - Thank you Howard Mayes Today we are inspired to offer a few words for our friend and TAGtribe member Howard Mayes. We have just got back from saying goodbye to Howard, over 300 people attended Howard's funeral, many had travelled from across the UK and postponed meetings and made time to pay their respects to this remarkable man. Howard suddenly passed away over the Christmas period. The inspiration for this blog comes from the amount of poignant comments people have made on line and in person, e
