This was shared with me today. It is apparently from a wall in Brixton, South London, which is very close to where I live. What do you think?
Going Virtual: My Last Three Books In The World
I’m having a bit of a bookish day today. And I was down The Abundance Shed earlier and I got a bit clutter-cleary. In the bottom draw of the filing cabinet (shh) are a couple of valuables I want to shift on eBay on Friday so I made a note. Then I pulled the last armful of books I own in the whole entire world down off the shelf and laid them all out for the Oxfam repository in the Sainsbury’s car park later in the week. And there are three books I cannot bear to be parted from. Can [...]
The Queen, Oklahoma, The One Show And Me
My best friend phoned, breathless, at 7.25 p.m. yesterday. Was I watching The One Show? Oh, purleeese (or however you spell that). Do I look like the sort of woman who watches The One Show? No disrespect, Matt & Alex, but no I wasn’t watching. “Oh, well, you’ll want to watch it later then, on iplayer. ‘Cos it’s right up your street tonight!” Have you got a best friend who knows you this well? If not, I feel for you. I duly tuned in this evening when I remembered, and what my pal knew was that I would love several [...]
Martha Beck: On Mothers and Mothering
I’m not a Mum although I have often referred to my businesses as my babies. But I know a lot of my readers are Mums (and we are all children) so I felt inspired to share something with you which I read recently in a book called Expecting Adam by Martha Beck. This is the second time I have read this book and I am pretty sure I never even noticed this passage first time round which just goes to show a couple of things. One that it’s worth reading books you love more than once and Two that you only [...]
Confidence: A Little Goes A Long Way
I received an email from a client tonight. I read it, smiled and went to delete it. And then I thought: “No. There’s something in this which might be important for all of us.” Here’s what my client said: “You have given me much confidence. Thank you.“ Doesn’t look like much, does it? So small I almost missed it for a couple of reasons. First off, it’s only eight words and it sounds like a throwaway remark. It’s always nice to get a thank you, but this isn’t about me. It is about good listening and good noticing but – [...]
Ho’oponopono: The Easiest Way for Wealth, Health, Peace and More
I wrote a post last week about not doing what we know to do. And I thought I’d write some more today about Ho’oponopono for those who may not be familiar with it at all. Thanks to Wikipedia for this definition: Ho’oponopono (ho-o-pono-pono) is an ancient Hawaiian practice of reconciliation and forgiveness. Similar forgiveness practices were performed on islands throughout the South Pacific, including Samoa, Tahiti and New Zealand. Traditionally Ho’oponopono is practiced by healing priests or kahuna lapaʻau among family members of a person who is physically ill. Modern versions are performed within the family by a family elder, or by the [...]
From My Coaching Toolbox: Stop It Immediately!
I will be ever grateful to my beloved client S for giving me the gift of one of my favourite coaching tools. S would be the first to tell you that she used to write incredibly long emails to me in the middle of the night, sometimes peppered with nameless dreads, you know the sort of thing, the thoughts we all think during what Marion calls the long nights of the soul. And at first I used to diligently reply to each point. And believe me when I say long, these emails were LONG. But then, after a while, the [...]
Five Things You Probably Didn’t Know About Judith Morgan
Inspired by a post by Yvonne Halling, the Bed & Breakfast Coach, on the About page of her new website launched recently, and in conjunction with my new blogging pals in the Better Blogging Project, and just for a bit of fun, here are five things you probably didn’t know about me: 1. During the Eighties I did a bit of spying. No, it wasn’t formal, I wasn’t 007 or anything. But I was asked to do something which now I regret and was so terrifying that I told everyone I knew about it. Since the first skill a spy [...]
Accounting Tips for Solopreneurs: Be Nice To Yourself & Your Accountant
Throughout January, in the UK, I have watched people struggling to get their accounts stuff together for the 31 January tax return deadline. Spare a thought for your accountant if you have one. What (s)he really doesn’t want is 100% of clients delivering their stuff in January. Imagine that just for a moment, what if you had to do all your work for all your clients in one month of the year? And January at that, perhaps the grimmest of all months. In January last year I had cause to visit my accountant to get his signature on something to do with anti money-laundering regulations [...]
Entrepreneur: How Do I Know I Am One?
A comment from a virtual visitor earlier in the week got me thinking. Here’s his comment “Isn’t Entrepreneur a word that is used to describe other people? As in you couldn’t really say “I am an Entrepreneur”, even if other people labelled you as such?” Thanks to Michael for that. Actually I can, so I disagree with Michael. I don’t hold the word Entrepreneur in quite such reverence. Guru perhaps. Genius definitely. But Entrepreneur no. How do I know I am one? Because I started and ran my own firm of accountants and sold it after 20 years and the guy [...]
I am a Blogger, Businesswoman, Creator, Wealth Coach, Business Mentor and Serial Entrepreneur. I used to be an Accountant, but I'm alright now. Warning: strong language from the outset.
"Judith helped me focus my entrepreneurial ideas into a step by step plan which I could follow. Since the coaching I have taken on 7 more members of staff, increased our net profit and hit our revenue targets. All from one little idea... incredible!" Guy Levine, Return On Digital
