What’s Happening?

Of late, many of my clients keep talking about how busy they are, which is a great thing. But what is actually happening?

Too often people will get caught up in a “Ground Hog Day” type of cycle. You know the one – you wake up, go to work, come home late, say hi to your family, have dinner, watch TV, go to bed and wake up, go to work…. and so on.

With the new, ever invasive technology it is getting worse. Emails are ALWAYS available. Work resources are now accessible everywhere. There is no OFF switch.

I have long been a believer in having a hobby. Something you do to give you energy, excitement and a connection with others. Something that feeds your soul. Do you have one Friends?

My friend and business collaborator Tanya is many things, and singing is one of her hobbies. Last night Wifey and I were privileged to see Tanya and her class graduate from a Jazz Singing intensive at the Paris Cat (in Melbourne). There were some great performances, some nervous performances, some shaky performances but they gave their best and it was pretty good. Most importantly the energy of achieving something for themselves in front of a crowd of 60 people was bubbling around us.

When was the last time you felt that way? So for you, What’s Happening?
