Author: Kirsty Dunphey on 17 June 2010

I'm a pretty motivated person. Often I'll get asked how I got "so motivated" and how I "maintain it".

Ideas are everywhere

Author: Kirsty Dunphey on 10 June 2010

When you're in "the zone" (the business zone that is) business lessons abound as you go through your everyday life.

This is my friend Hussein. We met in Siwa - a tiny desert oasis in the North West of Egypt.

Author: Kirsty Dunphey on 22 April 2010

Each day most of you get a lunch break. Many though will work straight through it (I know I'm guilty of this). Working straight through lunch gets you maybe an extra 40 minutes of work in your day, maybe you're a little more cranky and tired and that therefore dilutes the quality of your work. Maybe it also means you munch away at your lunch and don't enjoy it (or don't notice it's dubious nutritional quality?).
