musings on interesting ideas

After some months trying out this blog as a method of communication I have decided to stop adding articles to it.

This is not because I don’t have lots of say in this area (I have loads to say) but over the last couple of months I have become less and less motivated to put articles up on this blog. After much thought I think I now understand the reason why - it is to do with lack of feedback. When I write an article for this blog I have very little idea about who is reading it and how many people are reading it. The article for me just disappears into the ether.

So I have decided to launch a weekly newsletter instead. That way I at least know how many people receive the newsletter (although I still of course do not know if anyone is reading the articles). If you find any of the articles in this blog interesting please do sign up for the newsletter at:

Now I think this one is quite funny in a way - it is very simple but I think very effective.

I had the idea whilst installing some software on my computer and started thinking about “installing” ideas in our brains. This is about self talk and how we often limit our possibilities by the things that we say to ourselves. We can of course use self talk the other way around and “install” the thoughts that we want in our brains.

I have used positive self talk for years but only just realised that a web based tool to do this would be extremely simple to implement but highly effective.

To take part go to:

You can choose some of the ideas already on the page or send me your own ideas that you would like to use and I will include them for you (and others) to use.

If we could get loads of ideas this could be a great resource for everyone.

I have just launched two e-products on the main website.

At the moment there is one e-article and one e-book (Unpossible Thinking) but many more products are planned.

I have just launched my newsletter.

It will contain free articles on idea generation, innovation, spotting opportunities and thinking differently as well as updates on what I am currently working on.
