Articles

Everything I know,
filed where you can find it

One proper article a week, sorted into the eight things this site is about. Nothing here is behind a wall.

Eight subjects

the things that actually decided how my own rebuilds went

01

Identity

The gap between who you were and who you are now.

02

Starting again

The mechanics of the first move, which is the hardest part.

03

Purpose

What to do when you honestly do not know what you want.

04

Fear

Money, judgement, age, and being seen to try.

05

Habits and systems

Why motivation runs out on a Wednesday, and what to build instead.

06

Work after forty

Changing trade, starting something, or being the oldest person in the room.

07

Health and energy

Sleep, weight, drink, and having enough left to build with.

08

Failure

What I got wrong, in detail, including the parts that still sting.

Every Monday

One idea a week, worth ten minutes

One email every Monday. One idea, worked through properly, with something you can do about it that week.

No daily emails, and no countdown clock on anything I sell. If I have nothing worth saying, you get nothing that week.

You get The Weekly Reset straight away. Unsubscribe in one click.

Done. The Reset is on its way now, and the first email lands on Monday.
