Hobbies With Deadlines

Hobbies with deadlines

I don’t fully agree that if you can turn your hobby into a business it would be the ideal career.
Think of something you really love doing. I mean be realistic about it. Don’t think of stupid things like, ‘lying on a beach all day long’ or ‘watching TV while sitting on a massive sofa.’ Let’s [...]

Fish In A Bookshop

Fish in a bookshop

I meant that literally. My daughter noticed it first and pointed to it. There really is fish in my local book store. I went into Waterstones bookshop and right at the back of the shop there is a fish tank and it is on display as if it’s relevant to the bookshop.

Anyway I had a rough [...]

I’ve only been doing this now for just over a month and already I feel [...]

Successful Bloggers
