The meaning of life is to find your gift The purpose of life is to give it away I really like this quote, as this is how I feel about my path, my career and my purpose in life. I am a public servant at heart – I relish the opportunity to help others by …

Three years on…

Categories:

Business, Writing

by

It’s been roughly three years since I wrote anything on my blog.  I have shared some other bloggers’ work in that time, which was easy (read lazy) and meant that I could justify having a blog without really putting myself out there. That laziness became total inertia when my 9-to-5 work commitments became more like 24/7.  My business …

Being a Cultural Creative

Categories:

Sustainability

by

Ten years ago, I was at a point in my life when I felt it was time to “find myself”; to define my values, to determine what was really important, and to set some life goals.  I enjoyed my job and loved my family but there was something missing – I wanted to make a …

Sustainability

by

As part of my Masters studies, I wrote a paper entitled “Marketing for Sustainability”.  I would love to share the original paper but unfortunately, in the six years since then, I have upgraded from my tired old family PC to a laptop and moved house a total of four times.  I’m not entirely sure why I …

by

Most of us spend more …

The Reason

Categories:

Business

by

Why start a business?  Why this business?  Why here and now? To be brutally honest, part of the reason is money – I could do with more of it. More importantly, I believe that I have identified a need in the community for the type of services and expertise that I can provide.  Tradesmen that …

It was so sad to hear of the passing of Stephen Covey on Monday 16 July.  His books have been a great source of inspiration to many, including me!  When I’m feeling a bit lost or disorganised, I go back to the 7 Habits for a reboot – to remind myself of what I need …

Bambusa Solutions – a short history

Categories:

Business

by

I have often dreamed of owning my own business and, like many small business entrepreneurs before me, those dreams have centred around making money from something that I’m good at – something that I love. After the birth of my second son in 2000, I started a part-time bookkeeping venture but, after the introduction of …
