You’re Close-Minded

man-scratching-head

I bet you think you’re open-minded. Well I’m sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings, but you’re not. You’re not even close. Amazingly enough, along with being good at lovemaking and driving, pretty much everybody thinks they’re open-minded. The fact that we’d never have any arguments let alone wars if only it were true seems to escape most…

Learn To Kick Some Ass

Last week we had the dreamboat of the Internet Writer Dad supplying this excellent guest post. In it Sean (for it is he) kicked the ass of ‘The Secret’ from here to somewhere a long way off, and then he kicked it all the way back again. Then just for spite, he kicked it some more. Today’s guest post…

Imagine I called Donald Trump on his personal cell phone. After he answered there would be the initial chitchat as he enquired about my health and how the family were doing. That would probably lead into the usual round of him begging me to go and work for him and my inevitable embarrassment as he wept softly down the…

In other words, how often do you just ‘know’ something, but can’t really explain why you ‘know’ it, or where the feeling came from? And how often when you do have…

Finding Your Own Path

Today’s Friday guest post is written by the supremely gifted Joely Black, she of Amnar fame. I have known her for what seems like decades, but is probably no more than about a year or so. She is funny, chatty and very English indeed. She’s also an excellent writer and has written more books than Shakespeare and Dickens combined.…

How To Change

man-writing

The key to successful Life Coaching is change. Are you prepared to do what you need to do? James from Men With Pens asked me two great questions after my last post and I’m going to attempt to answer them today. Firstly he asked me this rather direct question: Okay, why the hell don’t you write shit like that…
