Words Of Wisdom From My Comedy Idol Billy Connolly


Was tweeting about this last night and thought it would make a good post as it explains how I go about making my videos and podcasts-

Oh Billy Connolly ❤️ An idol of mine. This is exactly how I do what I do. Not for a second claiming to be even 1% as clever or funny as Billy but all my videos & my podcasts are like this. Press record & see what happens. Nothing is ever planned. And like he said it is wildly exciting! I’m of average intelligence. Not particularly clever but one thing I do have is a relentlessly fast brain that NEVER stops thinking, at a million miles an hour. From the moment I wake up to the moment I fall asleep I’m thinking a million things at once. Possibly ADHD related. Can cause it’s own problems. It can be as exhausting as it sounds and I literally have no idea how to switch off. But I think the good outweighs the bad.

So yeah I just turn the camera on, the voice recorder, or fire up the laptop to write an article and it all just flows, normally first take/draft. One of the very few good qualities I have. Being the raging skip fire I am in other areas. 😂 A downside to having a brain like that is that I’m the most scatty disorganised man in the universe. Can write a 1,000 word article for a magazine in 20 minutes but paying bills, organising my finances or remembering to MOT the car are totally beyond me 😂 Much to the annoyance of friends and family!

For all that though I am happy with being me. That’s the whole key to life in my opinion- accepting yourself. So that’s my new year message, like taking advice from a man living a shambolic life is the answer to anything-

If you’re not happy with the person you are, create a person that you are. Never feel forced into anything, do your own thing and be your own person and you’ll get on pretty well. Change because you want to not because someone else wants you to. Live your life for yourself first.

Happy New Year.

Is It OK To Be Unambitious?

Is ambition essential? Should we always strive for more? Some of us just don’t want to.  In my office last night bopping away to music writing a PowerPoint Driver CPC course and I just realised how happy it makes me. I never expected to find something that would switch me on as much as driving did but somehow I have. That's key with an ADHD addled brain...stuff needs to switch you on. If it doesn’t it’s pointless trying to make it as it never will. It's why my brief period as a transport manager was a disaster! That & fact I don't want to manage anyone. I'm the opposite of power hungry, I'm power allergic, I don’t want to be in charge of anyone, ever. Unfashionable to say in this modern world but all I want from my little business is a comfortable happy life. No ambitions to grow it, no ambitions to employ anyone, no ambitions to get rich. I’ve never actually had any interest in money at all. Happiness is my currency. Also explains why I’m usually broke! It’s ta
