Leading the Polarised
You are what you read. That’s what an email from Harvard Business Review told me today. And I agree. We’ve discovered that what we read online feeds what is shown to us online, due to the clever algorithms employed behind the scenes.

Tired
I was too tired to blog, then I remembered…..
Monday (30/11/15)
Not tired, like needing more sleep,

When nothing’s in navy just blues,
Not drained, like laughing too much

Tired, like a battery at zero,
When you’ve gone from zero to hero.
Achey, like a hammer on nails,
When you have no more wind in your sails.

When there’s no nectar left in the soul.
Worn out, like a familiar brief case,
When it’s telling all over your face.
Weary, like the man in the moon,
When the day ends too soon.
Drained, like the last drop from the pot,
