As 2023 approaches, we all have New year’s resolutions in our bodies, business, relationships and careers. My experience is that most of the decisions we make are not sustained long term. The hardest resolution to change is always health related. If we do not have our health, how can we improve our energy, our emotions, [...]
Yesterday I presented at World Mental Health Day at Liverpool Central library. There were many exhibitors with a variety of backgrounds and solutions to problems. We cannot change all of our problems, but we can develop the tools to cope better in life and have better outcome solutions. Anxiety and depression are the number one [...]

Richard “Dickie” Attwood competed in 17 World Championship Grand Prix, racing for Lotus, Cooper and BRM; he also won the 1970 24h Le Mans. I asked him what his biggest attribute has been in his life. He said winning the F1 formula [...]
