What to measure? This might put you to sleep but will it be good sleep?

I love a KPI, if you don’t work in a performance environment this is a Key Performance Indicator. If you do work in a performance role you will know that in this connected world we are not short of data metrics. The skill is understanding which data to pay attention...

How to ‘survive’ the Winter

This time of year is often difficult to keep up our health and fitness habits.I don’t know about you but as soon as the clocks change and days get shorter, the nights longer and the whole thing gets darker I want to hibernate a little. It’s often difficult to get up...

What gets focus gets done!

Plant Proteins

Eat more plants is a much more positive message I think than don’t eat meat. In the spirit of adding things in, here’s my list of plant proteins. I don’t eat meat but I do eat fish and eggs. Even if you do eat meat, adding in plant protein brings you phytonutrients...
