Motivational Monday: Why You Should Learn To Be an Arsehole (At The Right Times).

Newsflash: The cliché is true – nice guys really do finish last. I know it because I’ve been there and I have the footprints on my back to prove it. “So what are you saying? We should be mean to everyone who we come into human contact with, instead of being polite and lovely,” I [...]

Motivational Monday: In a Parallel Universe, You’re a Fucking Superstar!

The concept of a parallel universe is an interesting concept brought together by quantum physicists. I’ll do my best to explain in my own words what it’s all about in my short video above, for those not initiated with the meaning.  In a parallel universe, you don’t desperately seek counsel in others and you take action [...]

Motivational Monday: 2 Girls, One Cup and One Less Facebook Friend. Do You Seek To Be Offended?

A couple of weeks ago I received a comment on an old Facebook video that was recorded four years ago. The video was recorded by my old boss – it was a visual chronicle of my fastidious response to my first ever viewing of the viral internet video umm…sensation that is; “Two Girls, One Cup.” [...]

Hello Mr/Mrs Busypants! Would you mind taking a few moments to read this? Yeah, I’m talking to you. Oh, but I guess I’m wasting my (and your precious time) asking for your attention because you’re sooo fucking busy, that even finishing this paragraph will collide with your hectic work schedule and shake your world up [...]

Motivational Monday: How to Win Friends, Influence People (and Get Free Ice Creams).

After recently spending a week with my friend, I started to suspect that aliens had abducted his soul overnight, or that he had joined a secret cult during my absence. He wasn’t his usual antagonistic, argumentative self. He was expressing the perfect etiquette of the world’s greatest social butterfly – taking an interest in other [...]

Motivational Tuesday!! Are You Competing With The One Person You Should Be Competing With?

(This post is a day late because of a mixture of bad wifi, and me totally taking the size of Vietnam from north to south for granted)…. Four years ago on a lively mid-August night in Las Vegas, a battered and bruised Richard Hatton felt something for the first time in his glitzy 13 year boxing [...]

New Challenge: The Battle of Scrawny to Brawny – Man Vs Will Peach

“You need some meat on you.” “Ewww, you’re soooo bony.” “Where DO you put it? You must have worms, you’re sooo skinny.” “Tehehe, your legs are like toothpicks.” These are actually some of the nicer things that people have said about my slender frame in the past.

Motivational Monday – Movember, Mofo!

Motivational Monday – Movember, Mofo!

Aside from the cases of a warped Austrian and a former Iraqi dictator who both suffered from small-penis syndrome, the mighty moustache has lived above many a legends upper lip.

Why My 28th Year on Mother Earth Was the Best So Far (and Why the 29th Will be Even Better)

On Thursday I will turn 29 years old. One year closer to the age that many people from my generation dread. Not me – I’m a lover of life, I LOVE my birthday and I consider it the most important day in the calendar. New Years Eve? A reminder of personal heartache and half-arsed promises [...]

Motivational Monday – Happy One Year Self Employmentversary to Me, 9-5 Haters and Something About Thai Drug Dealers

One year ago today, I clocked out of my dead-end job after over a decade of reluctantly jumping from one job to the other – working to make “the man” rich. I bid farewell to my boss with a good old British handshake and we wished each other the best. Ironically, he was the only [...]
