Find a rhythm 2
I can't believe it's been nearly two weeks since my last blog - nearly wrote confession there! I do have an excuse - I've just moved house. Funny thing is, I was talking in my last blog about how important it is to find a rhythm, to keep things moving along, well that sort of all went out of the window the last couple of weeks!
Firstly, because i moved house, it is going to take aol a 21 days to reconnect my broadband, which I really think is poor service so that's pretty disruptive and then of course I've had to sort out all my stuff currently strewn around the new place in boxes.
On the bright side, the new house affords me an office space with a proper desk rather than breaking my back at my laptop on the floor. It sort of ties in because part of giving yourself chance to succeed is about getting the right tools for the job and setting out like you mean to do it properly. I watch the way my father-in-law (who used to be a cabinet maker) prepares to do some DIY and it's not luck that he's good at it. The time he spends preparing his work space is invaluable and helps him do a better job. Case in point, he helped me fit my washing machine, my dad and I had actually done it the night before, but the pipe was kinked and it wasn't working. The first thing John did was remove the cupboard door that obstructed me and my dad. Just that simple act of preparation meant the job got done right. Thus ends my parable for the day.
