The mental health benefits of blogging

I am firmly convinced that blogging has significant mental health benefits. In the same way that a diary years ago provided a secret, sacred place for a person to unload what was on their mind a blog can provide a similar benefit nowadays. You never would have published your diary and it would have been… Continue reading The mental health benefits of blogging

Getting greater benefit from writing every day

I made a commitment back in January or February to show up here every day and write something. I would write something no matter how short. But I would show up and write. And I have kept to that commitment. A brief perusal of what I have written will show you the good, bad, ugly,… Continue reading Getting greater benefit from writing every day

Perplexed by Irish support for anti-democratic narcissist, criminal, Donald Trump

I have watched closely for nearly two years now the work of the January 6 committee and the Department of Justice in the United States in attempting to bring Donald Trump to justice for some of his crimes, most especially his refusal to accept the outcome of the Presidential election race between him and Joe… Continue reading Perplexed by Irish support for anti-democratic narcissist, criminal, Donald Trump

YouTube Livestream-doing my first one in 2022 this morning

I am doing my first YouTube Livestream in 2022 this morning. The last one was in December 2021. I have toyed in the past with the idea of going live much more regularly-for example, once a week and trying to develop a regular show at the same time, same day, same place every week or… Continue reading YouTube Livestream-doing my first one in 2022 this morning

We are six now. Chop wood, carry water

We booked our Christmas party this week and there are six of us now. We are not all full time, not by a long stretch. But there are six of us. A few short years ago there was just me. I answered the phone, wrote the letters, licked the stamps, went to the post office.… Continue reading We are six now. Chop wood, carry water

An Alpine village in the Third Reich

I am reading an interesting book from the history section of Amazon at the moment. It is called “A Village in the Third Reich: How Ordinary Lives Were Transformed By the Rise of Fascism”. It describes live in one small village in the Alps in southern Germany as Hitler came to power and totalitarianism took… Continue reading An Alpine village in the Third Reich

Selling information products as a side hustle (and developing it into a business)

I published a new book on the Kindle/Amazon platform yesterday. It is only a short book but sets out how to start a side hustle, which can be developed into a home business, selling information products. The method taps into the power that the internet is capable of putting in the hands of the ordinary,… Continue reading Selling information products as a side hustle (and developing it into a business)

Misconceived decisions to bring employment claims

I am often asked to bring employment cases on behalf of individuals which appear misconceived and will not provide a positive return for the wronged employee. Even if the employee wins the case the cost of bringing it, unless the employee represents himself, will exceed the potential compensation that can be awarded. For example, an… Continue reading Misconceived decisions to bring employment claims

Reviving “The Irish Law and Small Business Podcast”

I published my last podcast episode on my “The Irish Law and Small Business Podcast” on 29th May 2022. Other things took over in my marketing priorities and I let the podcast lapse. I stopped uploading new episodes and forgot all about it. Last week I uploaded a video to YouTube and a commenter made… Continue reading Reviving “The Irish Law and Small Business Podcast”
