New Year, New Who, New You?

This New year has been notable for a very high profile media event: the casting of Matt Smith as the new Doctor Who. That’s prompted me to write this post pointing out a previous entry of mine: Personal Regeneration. I don’t believe in New Year resolutions, however I do believe in change and improvement. The New Year [...] Related posts:

New Year Resolutions - An Excuse For Failure?

trevor — Wed, 31 Dec 2008 08:05:02 +0000

Well, the New Year is almost upon us. I hope you all have a happy hogmanay and a great 2009! As usual many people will be making their New Year Resolutions, often involving fitness, smoking or relationships. Not me. I made my last New Year Resolution long ago. What was it? “Don’t make any more New Year [...] Related posts:

Happy Holidays

This is probably going to be my last post for a few days as a I prepare for the seasonal influx of friends, family and jolly men in red coats. So I just want to leave you with best wishes for the holiday. Whether you celebrate Christmas, mark the solstice or - like me - simply [...] No related posts.

Making Bad Days Better

How’s your day been? Have you had “one of those days”? If you haven’t today you will have done so at some point. You know the sort of days I mean. Nothing seems to go right, the universe keeps throwing problems at you and you end the day with more worries than you started with. We [...] Related posts:

Reasons and Results

Henrik Edberg has a great post over at The Positivity Blog. It’s called 11 Questions That Could Help You to Vastly Improve the Quality of Your Life in 2009 and is well worth a read. One of the questions that made me stop and think more than the others was number ten: “Am I detached from [...] No related posts.

Aim Your Reaction Shots

I’m a great fan of pinball and spent much of my life as a student happily flipping the silver ball. When you’re playing pinball you don’t just bash the flippers and hope for the best. There are certain shots to aim for and certain goals to achieve. Ideally you bring the ball to rest on a [...] No related posts.

Carpe Diem

trevor — Thu, 18 Dec 2008 18:35:50 +0000

It’s been a while since I posted here, almost six months. That’s been due to a series of health problems and scares with myself and my family. Fortunately the major scares resolved ok and all are well. Hopefully things will remain that way. One effect of this sort of thing is to act as a Memento [...] No related posts.

Want It? Can’t Have It!

trevor — Sat, 28 Jun 2008 09:58:08 +0000

There’s an excellent sketch show on CBBC called Stupid. One of the recurring characters is the “Want it? Can’t have it!” girl. Her gimmick is offering something that someone really wants then, at the last moment, pulling it back. I don’t know about you but sometimes I feel the universe is like that: it holds out [...] No related posts.

Think The Unthinkable

trevor — Sun, 22 Jun 2008 07:45:17 +0000

The phrase “think the unthinkable” has gained a rather bad reputation - and not just because it’s an oxymoron! It’s often used by politicians as an excuse for doing something very unpopular. Used properly though, thinking the unthinkable is an approach that can have great value. We all have limits, things that we consider unacceptable or [...] No related posts.

Personal Regeneration

I want to finish this short series of time travel inspired posts with one more specificallly referring to Doctor Who. Don’t worry if you’re not a fan of the show, it’s just a jumping off point for some general ideas that remain applicable even if you’ve never heard of Rose Tyler or Davros! The specific Doctor [...] Related posts:
