GIPHY Studios Originals When you work for a big organisation, it's easy to feel like a small fish in a big pond. You get lost in a sea of faces, most of whom you've never met. I affectionately refer to people according to their approximate occupation, e.g. "that guy from IT", or the group of … Continue reading Trying to put the ‘organ’ back, in ‘organisation’

“It’s life, Kim, but not as we know it…”
Hello again! You may have noticed I've been off the scene for a little while. I'm not the best when it comes to coping with change and so, I've spent this time away trying to adjust to the monumental changes that have befallen us and those that await us on the horizon... You see, on … Continue reading “It’s life, Kim, but not as we know it…”

First off, why not have a watch of my latest video to get up to date: https://choosetransformation.files.wordpress.com/2019/05/win_20190520_14_11_56_pro.mp4 As I said, I'm now in the middle of quite a heavy stint at work- three, 12.5 hour days on the trot, three days off and then three days back on... so six days out of nine.

Roots
Here I stand- Tall. Strong. Steady. Stretching towards those Cumulus, effortlessly. This exposed skeleton, hidden beneath an impressive display of greens and reds. These leaves, an ecosystem of their own, nurturing others. The thick bark preventing any intrusion of what I hold dear to me inside; a barrier which has taken many years to create. … Continue reading Roots

Here's todays video (nothing too dramatic!): https://choosetransformation.files.wordpress.com/2019/05/070519.mp4 The first thing I … Continue reading Progress Point
He Tries

“I’m not here to be your friend…”
Today I had one of those days where I felt like public enemy number one! Do you know the days I mean? Don't get me wrong, I did some work that made me feel good and got some nice feedback from patients. But, most of the day was spent giving unwelcome news, making decisions to … Continue reading “I’m not here to be your friend…”
Cognitive Distortions
"Whether you think you can, or you think you can't- you're right." - Henry Ford Yesterday's post, "It's either Perfection or Failure", was inspired by my own experiences and belief system. For reasons too lengthy, too personal and too complex to write about at this point; I hold a belief within me that I need … Continue reading Cognitive Distortions
“It’s either Perfection or Failure”
Lavender from the allotment at work Here's my latest video, which I'll go into a bit more underneath: https://choosetransformation.files.wordpress.com/2019/04/vid_20190423_163005.mp4 I usually look forward to the consistency of my working day routine and the general predictability of the day's activities, but lately it's felt like more of a task. Yesterday at work, I felt the familiar … Continue reading “It’s either Perfection or Failure”
