A beautiful outlook on life…

Good morning,

I hope you’re having a wonderful start to the week ๐Ÿ™‚

Last week, I watched the finale of one of my favourite TV shows, The Good Place. Itโ€™s one of the best finales made, in my opinion, and thereโ€™s one speech made by the character Chidi that I wanted to share with you all today, and mention why I love it.

It’s okay to feel how you feel this January

Good morning ๐Ÿ‘‹

How are you doing this morning?

The start of the year is often a very positive and exciting time for many, as they strive to begin the year as they mean to go on – making plans, redefining themselves, and adjusting their priorities for the next 12 months.

Good morning,

How are you doing?

I’ve been creating on LinkedIn and here on Sweeney’s Blogs for over six and a half years now. While doing this for such a long time teaches you more lessons than I could begin to share in one post, I wanted to talk about one in particular with you all today.
