Do we really need to reinvent the wheel? 🧐


​View in browser

Hi Reader,

The other day, I picked up a copy of one of my favourite magazines, Breathe magazine. My neighbour found out that I love reading it and handed me an old copy she still had lying around.

And I noticed something that shocked me at first.

They had published the exact same article about building new habits in both issues.

Word for word.

Same tips, same examples.

The only difference? The two issues were five years apart.

At first, I thought: How could this beautifully curated magazine reuse the same content?

But then it hit me:

Of course they did.

Because when it comes to building habits, the strategies don’t really change.

The fundamentals of forming new habits are the same today as they were five years ago.

And isn’t that true in leadership and business?

We often think we need to constantly reinvent the wheel.

Find something new. Say it differently. Keep it “fresh.”

But sometimes, the most powerful thing you can do is…

👉 Keep it simple. Repeat what works.

As a coach, I sometimes catch myself thinking: I’ve said this before, surely everyone knows this by now.

But the truth is—most people need to hear it more than once.

And often, we need to remind ourselves, too.

Simplicity doesn’t mean being unoriginal.

It means honouring what’s proven.

And trusting that consistency beats novelty.

View in browser Hi Reader, On one of my morning walks this week, I came across a rock with a quote painted on it: “Act as if what you do makes a difference. It does.” W. James And this inspired today's email because the way you prioritize makes a huge difference in how you handle deadlines. Because the quickest path to overwhelm isn’t a full schedule… It’s a schedule where everything feels equally important. And the past months reminded me of that in a very real way. With the start of a new...

View in browser Hi Reader, Last week, I promised I’d walk you through some stories and tips about planning. So, let’s start with a confession: I used to tell myself a very convincing lie… 👉 “I work better under pressure.” It sounded good. It even felt true at times.But here’s the thing... it was rubbish 💩And today, I’ll tell you why it’s time to ditch that belief once and for all. When you’re working solo, you might get away with it. You can leave things to the last minute, ride the...
