* Regarding Your Biography - I have yet to meet a person who does not deserve a biography. It can be lite or it can be detailed. It can be a snapshot or a definitive work or anything in between. Having supported people writing their CVs for over 30 years, it is a natural step out to now support people in writing their biographies. With my own nearing completion at last I want to help others write theirs, as a tool through which to take stock, look back and look forward. To self actualise and reach a level of peace and understanding that comes with the process. This day together will allow you to consider your options and, if you choose to to get started, with a framework and methodology that has worked for me.

I was also recently sent the following from my dear friend Aidan Duff, and this helped me further understand a number of the things driving me on to undertake this challenge:

"One day, a son said to his father: "Dad, would you like to run a marathon with me?" and the father replied "yes"

And they ran their first marathon together

Another time, the son asked again: "Dad, would you like to run another marathon with me?" and the father replied "yes, my son." Again..

Another day, the son said to the father: "Dad, would you run the Ironman with me?"

The Ironman is a triathlon - the most enduring that exists:

- 4km swim

- 180km bicycle ride

- and 42 km run

And the father answered, "Yes."

The story seems simple. Until you watch this video:
