This place is weird…

Well – it’s kind of….. Too perfect? Everywhere is spotlessly clean, extremely quiet, perfectly formed.

1. My client ate my fritter

2. India is the new China

3. Really big is the new small

4. Phishing with Jose

5. Whoa! Look at that rock!

Which reminded me of a muse from Simon Hocken as we sat at the first Strategic Coach meeting, listening as we were encouraged to etablish yet another set of goals. Simon turned to me and quietly said: “I don’t know about you – but I’m a bit tired of having to set goals – why can’t I be meaningless for a while?” Which really got me thinking about a new coaching programme: Why Can’t I Just Be Meaningless for a While? The antidote to personal development programmes:

1. Steps – Don’t bother creating any steps;

2. Relationships – it’s all about you, you, you – screw everyone else

3. Health – eat and drink to excess

4. Exercise – to be avoided

5. Career – just show up – never volunteer, avoid initiative

6. Contribution – the world really does owe you a living

7. Money – spend it – shopping is good – just keep borrowing

8. Work – nobody can do things as well as you can – people cannot be trusted – work more hours

9. Balance – why go home? It’s a dump, he/she is miserable and the kids are little shits

10. Legacy – that was it.

Do you think it would sell? I woke at 4.00am again this morning – just cannot sleep at the moment- which possibly explains why this post is a little insane. Now that it’s light – I see that even the view off my balcony is perfect.
