You go to sleep everything, having done the things you've done, hoping that what you've done is going to either move you forward in your life, or at least taken care of what you deem to be important.

After all, don't we all do only the things which we think are valuable to us? Quite often we do things that perhaps we question, but in reality, our actions are dictated to us by our unconscious minds telling us what it thinks is most important.

As each day comes and goes, you wonder whether you'll ever find the drive or passion to create a life you are proud of living.

There's a reason why in the army, they can have such small teams of people do incredible missions and accomplish unbelievable tasks. They call it military precision and that's how you should be in your life if you want to get the things you want like love, success, achievements and fulfillment.

Things don't just happen, everything happens because you make it happen. If things don't happen the way you want them to, it's because you haven't done anything to make it come true.

In your own life, if you are like me, someone just trying to make things happen, then perhaps you need to think about this idea of military precision for a second.

As I was doing my morning exercise today I was watching TED (again!), you do know I am a fan! I've always wanted to speak on TED's platform myself and perhaps one day I will talk about the World Without Offices there.

Anyway's today I watch Sherry Turkle talk about being connected yet feeling more alone than ever before and I think it really hit home in terms of the message she brings.

What she is talking about, from my perspective, is that the more technology plays a role in getting everyone "connected", the more alone people really are as they try to replace real communication with text messages, email and social networking.

It's not often these days that you can come across a company which fails in so many ways that it's almost unbelievable they are operational, however in the past 3 weeks I have come across just a company that I think has failed on so many aspects that it's impossible not to warn other people about them.

So the company in question is Livedrive and it is a cloud storage company create by the same founder as Fasthosts. I've head great things about Fasthosts, so I was expecting good things from Livedrive, but unfortunately almost from the get go there were severe issues.

I was just thinking today how far cloud technology has come, and how quickly it is moving.

If you think you can come up with a new idea for some clever cloud based software, the moment you look online for competitors you'll already find a few trying their luck with their businesses.

It's like the wild west, lots of people are setting up cloud and/or social media style services, and they are all looking for a piece of the pie because every other week we hear of yet another new-dot-com business being bought out for millions of dollars, or getting millions of dollars of investment.

I think there is a conference going on at the Excel next week which showcases 3 days of eco-friendly building businesses.

So this is their website pitch: "Ecobuild is the world’s biggest event for sustainable design, construction and the built environment and the UK’s largest construction event of any kind."

I don't care how environmentally sustainable a building practice is, if the building itself will never used efficiently, what's the point in having the building there in the first place?

I'm totally confused.

I feel like I'm procrastinating today.

We've all had days when the mind simply doesn't want to work. Days when all you can think about is nothing and everything, where ideas are free flowing in and out of your head, but your mind cannot organise or make sense of it all and the only thing you end up doing is nothing.

So what's actually happening, perhaps it is your mind telling you something. Remember that your mind is an incredibly accurate measuring device that will often tell you things even though you might not be aware of them.

When you are tired, your mind and body tell you that you need sleep.

You know as I'm waiting for my dinner to cook, I just looked over our company Twitter campaign and it really has been quite some journey this last 10 years. You see I'm right now doing a campaign to share more SEO information and in doing so, I've had to dig deep to really get 100 SEO tips.

This is a way to create an engagement campaign on Twitter. Runs for 100 days and each day you release a tip on your chosen topic. I happen to be writing about SEO. I've already got all 100 tips prepared and once the campaign is over it's likely I'll also post all 100 tips on our company blog.

Wow, I watched a really interesting video on TED this morning as I was doing my running. It's one of those TED videos which you perhaps might not have chosen to watch, but whilst I was looking around, it seemed the only one I hadn't watched on my iPad out of all the featured talks on the first page, so I pressed play and let it run.

Pleasantly surprised, NO!

More like amazed and inspired by the message that was coming from Brene Brown. She talks about the unspoken epidemic of shame and where those emotional states stem from, but what it ultimately means to be vulnerable and boy I can tell you that this hit a few new notes!

Life goes by so quickly you often forget that everything which happens, is an opportunity to learn even more about the world around you and more importantly about yourself.

Curiosity about ourselves is what has lead us to being here in this time, inventing the technology we have around us, and asking those questions about ourselves, why are we here?

Last week ended in a great big learning for myself. I learned that if you are truly passionate about your life, about what you do and what you represent, you will overcome all the barriers that stand in your way, no matter how physically challenging they are, or mentally challenging.
