The spring is upon us, which means the end of winter hibernation and immediate surge in life energy. Procrastination remains an on-going battle, but projects abound, ‘success is trying’ and ‘prioritise change’ have become my new mantras.

First event of the year I am heading to is Alain de Botton’s new book launch in May – I am a big fan, I like what he does with The School of Life and the book is about love and relationships. I am in.

The second event is pricier but I wanted to do it for a while so I am finally doing it. Jack Black brings his MindStore programme to London in June. As he says, it only works.

This Buddha bracelet is helping to keep my ego in check on a daily basis, especially at work. I am wearing it now while writing this. It serves as my anchor reminding me to be present and kind to others.

Ahh, life. What are you up to, nomads, this Easter? Stay happy and have a good one.
