Monday service: A fear of success

By Iain 14 March 2022Reflections, The MissionNo Comments

This may be a day late again, but it's really no big deal. As long as it's once a week and honest, it's all good. This last week I made a lot of progress on the coaching course I'm currently doing - I was really cranking out the words, I think I wrote about 2000 all told, with research and…

Monday Service: A day late but that’s ok

By Iain 7 March 2022Reflections, The MissionNo Comments

Last week was productive. I wrote a little piece about it being the third anniversary of Keith Flint's death. I had been sitting on it for a while, juggling it around in my head until it made sense, then when I realised the anniversary was a couple of days away, I wrote it up. The timing was perfect as it…

Sunday Service: Good week

By Iain 20 February 2022Reflections, Site Related, The Mission, VideogamesNo Comments

Wow. What a week I've had. I had two morning workouts, taken my supplements every morning, and I've felt motivated to DO STUFF, which I really have not felt for a long time. It's a nice feeling. I've bought some domains, and both have functioning websites on them. One even has Woo Commerce turned on and is integrated with Gelato,…

Four bags!

By Iain 13 February 2022Reflections, The Mission, VideogamesNo Comments

I filled four bags with my old clothes. Crazy. It was mostly old stuff that doesn't fit anymore, but some of it I don't think suited me nowadays, or wouldn't suit the person I'm projecting my self to be. Also sorted out my supplements for the next two weeks and had a tidy. Threw out a lot of stuff. Plan…

My procrastination

By Iain 24 November 2021Reflections, The MissionNo Comments

Procrastination is a tricky beast. To anyone watching it may look like I don't care about anything, and I'm being lazy. But in reality, I'm crippled by indecision. I don't know what to do next. There are so many things I want to do, things I want to start, things I want to finish, things I want to carry on…

Self-isolation, quarantine, whatever this limbo is; week seven

By Iain 6 May 2020Creativity, Physicality, Reflections, Site Related, The MissionNo Comments

Time is strange at the moment. It goes fast, but feels slow. Days take ages, but are over before you know it. This strange coronavirus limbo is warping things. It's so quiet outside, it's unreal. Eerie. Spooky. It feels like the entire world has been paused. I didn't get a rowing machine in the end, I'm ashamed to say the…

So I took a year off, from everything

By Iain 9 September 2019Creativity, Reflections, Site Related, The Mission, VideogamesNo Comments

I mean, it was mostly not through choice. We needed to make sure we would make it through the year financially. Sure, an exotic cat was added to the family in 2019, but other than that, we were careful. Frugal. Thing is, I got lazy and complacent. I found the smallest possible reason to take a year off from personal…

Waves is gone

By Iain 4 September 2018Internet, Site RelatedNo Comments

My old blog, Waves, which used to be at the old domain of randomfury.co.uk, is no more. All the posts have been folded into this blog. It was a lovely place, if a bit quiet. I feel like I've written this a lot recently, but it was always more for me to cathartically write than for people to read. I'd…

2013 in review

By Iain 3 September 2018Creativity, Reflections, Site Related, The Mission, VideogamesNo Comments

I'm just going back and porting my blog posts from 2013 over and man, this was a funny year. Existential panic had set in. I knew I wanted to do something with my life, but I was throwing darts into the mist trying to find what that something was. In the previous year, app development didn't stick, and drawing pictures…

Keep myself honest

By Iain 6 February 2018Reflections, Site RelatedNo Comments

It's definitely useful to have this blog as a reminder, and in an effort to keep me honest and accountable for my forward momentum, I'm updating this blog on a semi-regular basis. A little renovation here and there is in order, and a recalibration of older posts is ongoing, as I filter out a lot of the irrelevant stuff like…
