Last autumn, four years after being made redundant, I decided 2019 was going to be the year I looked to return to work. That said, I had anticipated an entire series of blog posts about seeking flexible employment, appealing to my network for any kind of part time role which might fit the bill and scratching my head looking for an organisation or workplace whose ethos fitted mine.

A huge number of people spend a huge amount of time dreaming about how amazing it would be to one day start their own business.

January is a long, dark, cold month, there’s no escaping that. That said, I have a lot of love for January. It’s a time for new beginnings, reflection on where you’ve been and for getting your mindset into how you could take steps to get yourself in the best shape for the year ahead.

If you’ve checked the weather forecast recently, been on the school run or have a weather obsessed husband like me, it won’t have slipped your attention that here in the UK we have some icy weather on the way- some really cold weather in fact. Blizzards, ‘thundersnow’ and temperatures of an arctic minus sixteen have been predicted. Even if you’re not really one for massively preparing for storms, this cold weather appears to be a little different, and so it’s worth getting organised. Here are a few ideas of how you can go about it.

In the autumn of last year it dawned on me that the elusive moment I believed would come one day, was bubbling up inside of me, beginning to niggle. A feeling I always spoke about when people asked me ‘what are you going to do about work?’. I always answered that I’d know when the time was right, and until then would continue to live in the moment, not worrying about what may or may not happen in the future.
