A 13.5 mile Sunday run in 2.10 in glorious sunshine as I run toward the exit of 2018 and into 2019.

It’s been a mixed year with high’s and low’s , I lost my mum * my executive coach * in February and was recognised in my Industry as a positive male role model on assisting people reach their goals with positive mental health.

Like everything I learned in 2010 when I suffered mental exhaustion is that stuff happens, painful stuff , but so does good stuff and if you pay attention you can learn from it , and be happy .

I read as many positive articles as I can and I read the writings of Marcus Aurelius which I find inspirational .

He wrote,

Imagine you were now dead , or had not lived before this moment . Now view the rest of your life as a bonus, and live it as nature directs .

Be proud when you reach your goals , put your hands out wide and thank those who helped you and tell yourself you are great.
