• Why walk?

  
  Change & Stuff — Authority: 124
  I was out today tramping through mud, rain and leaf mulch.  It was the was the wettest day of the year for us so far.  You might ask why bother?  What is the point in getting soaked and marching through the mire just to end up (hopefully!) back where you start from?  There are, of course, a series of reasons.  ...

  Change & Stuff — Authority: 124
  When your life is about making the next promotion, selling the next big contract, buying a nicer home or whatever, then it is relatively easy to measure your progress.  Life is like a race and you can see those you are competing against falling behind you in your rear-view mirror.  Your progress up the corporate ...

  Change & Stuff — Authority: 124
  We were out walking today in the Surrey Hills; it was a beautiful, sunny late autumn / early winter’s day.  A chilly wind was blowing in, making it feel much colder than the 7°C the thermometer said.  The views were lovely, with everything showing up the most vivid colours in the very directional light we get at ...

• When being on track is being lost…

  
  Change & Stuff — Authority: 124
  I was out walking again today, and as ever, it taught me a few things of broader application.  The number of times today that we were happily marching along a clear, straight path, and according to our plan, we were meant to proceeding along a straight path… so no problem, right?  Wrong!  Sometimes, and in fact ...

• A lesson in patience from my wife

  
  Change & Stuff — Authority: 124
  Long ago, when I was little, ladies played patience.  My mother used to play with a paired pack of miniature cards sold for just this purpose and I learnt from her.  The younger generation will recognise this as the ever-present Solitaire installed on every Windows computer.  We have all played it occasionally when ...

• Goals v Acceptance

  
  Change & Stuff — Authority: 124
  In an earlier blog one of my correspondents was talking about how changes in society are affecting the environment in which our children are growing up.  Whether you are running a business or just reading self-help books we are all exhorted to set and pursue goals.  Some people would have us believe that all we ...

• Lost in the dark?

  
  Change & Stuff — Authority: 124
  As a keen walker and fan of all those survival-type programmes, one of the things they talk a lot about is what to do when you are lost.  One of the hardest thing in the world to do is realising that continuing to go forwards may not be a good idea.  We all like to feel that we are ‘doing something’ and ...

• Is a Tar pit or just Winter?

  
  Change & Stuff — Authority: 124
  When you are a feeling stuck, and the changes you are looking for just aren’t occurring there are two metaphors that spring to mind for me.  The first is the tar pit.   These were common in prehistoric times and creatures used to wander into these sticky black, death-traps and, once enmired, they were stuck for ...

• Are you a pebble?

  
  Change & Stuff — Authority: 124
  A friend left this comment on my blog, which contained this sentence “I started thinking about the millions of stones/pebbles, how each was different, very different & yet if you lift your eyes the beach looks golden & could be a continuous strip of bronzed sand”.    And that got me thinking, I bet ...

• Finding myself part 2

  
  Change & Stuff — Authority: 124
  I was out walking again today along the beautiful South Downs Way, near Cocking; despite the slight overcast, the views were phenomenal.  It occurred to me that walkers, like the rest of us, are busy trying to ‘find our way’ .  We talk about ‘losing our way’ too.  Then I looked down, and realised that I ...

  Change & Stuff — Authority: 124
    As regular readers will know, I am a keen walker.  One of my walks usually involves some planning.  I  plot out the route on PC mapping software [Memorymap] and download that to a GPS [Satmap ].  Some are routes I create, others I find in books and magazines.  I often don’t know the walk and I love the ...

  Change & Stuff — Authority: 124
  I was talking to my lady wife today, discussing the change in the rate of change in our lives.  When we were younger life seemed to be composed of passing a series of landmarks such as marriage, the births of our children, job & house changes etc.  Then it feels like you get to a place where these waymarks no ...

• Can a leopard change its spots?

  
  Change & Stuff — Authority: 124
  We are told from an early age that a leopard can’t change its spots as a self evident article of truth.  As a professional in this field I obviously don’t see it quite this way.  Obviously we are born with a certain nature, a body and a genome that gives us a predisposition towards certain strengths and ...
