Gratitude

Thankful people are more successful

by Sam Radford on November 9, 2009

It’s been a while. Due to everything that’s been going on – from redundancy to starting a new job – there have been no updates since the end of September. I’m not going to be back posting on a daily basis for now, but I am going to be back posting frequently. And definitely more [...]

Keeping your enthusiasm alive

by Sam Radford on September 1, 2009

Let’s be honest, it’s not always easy to stay enthusiastic. Life is pretty non-stop and it leaves us struggling to catch our breath, let alone maintain enthusiasm at all times.
These thoughts were triggered by watching my dog yesterday morning. Every night we take her collar off before bed so that she doesn’t disturb us in [...]

Appreciation

by Sam Radford on August 27, 2009

Today is mine and Rachel’s fifth wedding anniversary. How time flies! On many levels it seems to have flown by and yet on others it feels like we’ve been together forever – in a good way!

This weekend just gone has been one of those manic yet wonderful times. As many of you will know, me and Rachel (my wife) had a beautiful baby girl called Eloise on the 28th January this year. And this Saturday was the day we arranged to have a thanksgiving celebration and blessing. It was fantastic. [...]

Not only this, we are bombarded endlessly with the glamourous lives of celebrities, sports stars, and the latest reality television personalities through endless tabloid newspapers and gossip magazines.
There’s [...]

Over the last week or so, my writing has focussed much more on what might be called attitudes. We’ve talked about things like humility and gratitude. This has been a shift away from some of the more practical posts that preceded them.
It has been interesting to see how people are much more drawn to posts [...]

Take some time to savour your life

by Sam Radford on June 1, 2009

I live in England. I love living in England. But, to be honest, I don’t always love the weather. We don’t get nearly as much as sun as I would like.
That said, this weekend just gone was wonderful. Clear blue skies, gorgeous sunshine. It was fabulous. I feel refreshed, invigorated, and alive.
I was sitting outside eating [...]

Love unexpressed is a pretty useless thing. Gratitude unexpressed is as good as meaningless.
Not only are words without actions not enough, thoughts without words are largely pointless.
Who are the people around you who you love, appreciate, and are genuinely grateful for? Do they know? When did you last tell them? What was the last thing [...]

A work in progress

by Sam Radford on May 16, 2009

This site is a work in progress. Not only that, this brand is a work in progress.
I am trying to establish a legitimate and genuine web presence that is inspiring, adds real value, is unique, and is in the best sense of the word, remarkable.
But I know I’m not there yet. I’m learning.
I know, I [...]
