How many times have you been doing the Friday big-shop and thrown in a multipack of Jammy Wagon Wheels, because its on offer, and thought diet starts Monday? On one hand its very easy to put “things” off to the following week, on the other hand Monday’s provide a great “line-the-sand” for us to start again.

I recently read an article that stated “The simple act of rotating your plate can make the food on it taste better.” Like many of you my first reaction was scepticism, surely this was yet another of those statistically unsound studies that newspapers seem to love.

Solving Problems
For some, the attraction is the challenge of solving something so complex, for others it’s the satisfaction when it’s achieved, for others still it’s collaborating and working together knowing that many minds are better than one.

Forum Member James Stewart, Head of Live Operations at Sky UK, reflects on his roller-coaster ride at the 24-hour European Championships and the resulting team medals.
Across the river Bega, a bar erupts in a cheer. It is the kind of roar that tells you something special has just happened. The commentator is screaming in Romanian and I can see the big screens clearly, Gareth Bale has just scored a wonder goal in the Champions League final. Meanwhile, I am emptying my belly over the fence being sick once again. Even so, I wouldn’t have swapped a seat at the bar for the fence I am hunched over in the Ion Creanga park in Timisoara for all the tea in China at that moment. Yep, welcome to 24-hour racing!

I BEHAVE THEREFORE I AM. William James said “we have as many personalities as there are people who know us”. Your ‘character’ is defined to others not by your thoughts or intentions, however well-meaning and earnest they may be, but by your BEHAVIOUR. Like it or not, each and every one of us gets judged on our behaviour, every day. The way we act, the things we say, the stuff we do – for better or for worse, we’re always making an impression on those around us. Your behaviour shapes what people think about you and defines how people remember you. You could go as far as saying ‘You’ are the behaviours you display to the world!
