I wrote yesterday about the commitment I made in January 2022 to write and publish a blog post on this blog/site every day. I have managed to achieve that daily goal and have developed what I believe to be a tremendously valuable asset; an asset for me personally and my business. The mental health benefits… Continue reading The dilemma of my daily writing habit

The daily writing commitment I made in January 2022-how has it gone?
I have been writing on this blog every day since 31st January 2022. I made a promise to myself at that time and made a public commitment to write a blog post every day. I confess to taking some pride in having done so to date. For the most part it has been easy to… Continue reading The daily writing commitment I made in January 2022-how has it gone?
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
Maintaining the daily writing habit in Sorrento
Back in February, I think, I made a promise to myself to show up here every day and write a blog post. It could be a short one, a long one, and about anything and everything under the sun. But I would write something. And I am proud to say, have stuck with it. It… Continue reading Maintaining the daily writing habit in Sorrento
Finding legal diamonds in the Twitter sewer
I am not the biggest fan of Twitter. I have often described it as a cess pool, an open sewer, feral, and so forth. But it keeps drawing me back, and on some rare occasions I come across a post or tweet or link that I love, or I find really useful or interesting. I… Continue reading Finding legal diamonds in the Twitter sewer
Blogging every day for 12 months-how it’s going
I made a commitment back on 31st January 2022 that I was going to blog every day for 12 months. This blogging was to be done on this website and was entirely separate from blog posts that I might write for my law based websites such as BusinessAndLegal.ie or EmploymentRightsIreland.com. It was to be entirely… Continue reading Blogging every day for 12 months-how it’s going
The curse of knowledge, and the great opportunity that presents itself
I was contacted by a client of mine recently who was interested in buying a retail unit for his professional practice. He was confused about what was actually being offered for sale, however, and asked me a number of questions about it. The questions appeared to me to be stupid questions. As far as I… Continue reading The curse of knowledge, and the great opportunity that presents itself
Making a short movie/VLOG and the bittersweet attempt to capture memories
I’m making a short movie or vlog about our day trip to Kinsale and the Old Head of Kinsale on 19th March 2022. I have quite a good deal of camera footage and the temptation is to just dump it on a timeline and add some music with a few captions thrown in. And if… Continue reading Making a short movie/VLOG and the bittersweet attempt to capture memories
Finding Woody Guthrie in Kinsale, #2
We were in Kinsale yesterday as we are in Cork for the long weekend-the new public holiday on Friday in recognition of the Covid 19 sacrifices made by people etc. Kinsale is a beautiful town and the Old Head of Kinsale is spectacular. But I was staring into the window of a second hand book… Continue reading Finding Woody Guthrie in Kinsale, #2
I never know what I am going to write
I have written a new blog post every day since I made that commitment on 31st January 2022. I promised myself that I would blog every day for 12 months. I used to always worry about what I would write about. But since I have made that commitment I just write something every day. Seth… Continue reading I never know what I am going to write
