On Tuesday we celebrated St. Georges Day, The Patron Saint of England. And it got me thinking. I know there are many saints for many things. As someone that talks about Productivity a lot. I wondered if there was a Patron Saint of Productivity. Me aside of course! But my research tells me there isn't a recognised saint specifically dedicated to productivity. So there is time for it to be me! However, there are saints associated with virtues such as diligence, discipline, and stewardship of time, which are often related to productivity. St. Joseph: He is often invoked as the patron saint of workers, craftsmen, and fathers. He is revered for his humility, hard work, and dedication to his family. St. Benedict of Nursia: He is known for his Rule of Saint Benedict, which emphasises the importance of balance, order, and discipline in daily life. Monastic communities following his rule often prioritise work as a means of spiritual growth. St. Thomas Aquinas: Although primarily known as a theologian and philosopher, St. Thomas Aquinas also stressed the importance of order and moderation in one's activities, which are essential aspects of productivity. While these saints are not specifically designated as patrons of productivity, their teachings may offer valuable insights and inspiration for leading a productive and purposeful life. #ProductivityBoost #BusinessManagement #EfficiencyPartner #BusinessConsulting #ProductivityTips #HRConsultant #TimeManagement #EfficiencyExpert #BusinessGrowth #ProductivityHacks #ConsultingFirm #HRStrategy #ProductivitySolutions #TaskManagement #LeadershipDevelopment #SmallBusinessGrowth #WorkSmart #StrategicConsulting #ConsultingServices #EffectivePlanning #BusinessLeadership #BeMoreProductive

LOOK FOR THE GOOD! Everyone may not be good, but there's always something good in everyone. Never judge anyone shortly because every saint has a past and every sinner has a future. #OscarWilde Oscar Wilde's words hold a profound truth about the human condition. He reminds us that despite our imperfections, every individual possesses a spark of goodness. We should resist the temptation to judge others hastily, recognizing that everyone has a complex history and the potential for growth. Wilde's observation that "every saint has a past and every sinner has a future" challenges us to view others with compassion and understanding. No one is inherently good or bad; our actions are shaped by a myriad of factors, including our upbringing, experiences, and circumstances. By acknowledging the complexities of human nature, we can approach others with empathy and refrain from labeling them based on a single incident or perceived flaw. Wilde's wisdom encourages us to look beyond surface appearances and seek the positive qualities within each person. This perspective fosters a more inclusive and tolerant society where individuals are valued for their potential rather than their past mistakes. Embracing this philosophy allows us to build stronger relationships, resolve conflicts peacefully, and create a more harmonious world.

REFLECTIONS Last Sunday, I travelled to Brighton for a memorial honouring a dear old North American friend who passed away on July 4th. We first met in London many years ago, and even after Alan moved to Brighton, we maintained our close friendship. I knew much about his friends and neighbours on a special street near the sea, but I had never met them until last Sunday. We gathered at a remarkable restaurant and music venue, which led me to reflect on the values we hold and the actions we take to build and create our lives. Alan was a man of brilliant intellect and practical skills, with a kind heart and sharp wit. He cherished his privacy and solitude but was also the life of the party when in the mood. He was always open to deep and inspirational debates, often exploring mad ideas with an intense focus that bordered on obsession. As an early IT developer and expert, he skilfully balanced the internet's benefits without becoming too attached to it. Spending an afternoon with 20-30 of his friends, I realised we shared at least three things in common: a great love and respect for Alan, his commitment to connecting people, and his ability to help with various life and work issues. Alan built a community within the wider community, a value and skill set we need to celebrate, recognise, and continue to cultivate. In a turbulent and ever-changing world, these connections make us stronger, more hopeful, and ready to face challenges and opportunities. They help us make the seemingly impossible possible, creating a safer, thriving world where we respect each other and embrace the complexities and joys of being human. Wishing you a great summer in the northern hemisphere and a wonderful winter in the south. #wisdom #curiosity #courage #friendship #leadership #change #growth
