I’ve written before about how some of the most significant experiences of my life to date have come about all of their own accord. At least on reflection that’s how it appears. Sure, I was involved in those experiences, I was there from the start, if there was in fact a start. But there were many apparent micro events that conspired to make those experiences come about and I had no direct hand in them. I can see this now as a common thread in everything.

Kill Your Fucking Heroes!
You must kill your fucking heroes! Take the metaphorical blade and slit their metaphorical throats. Slaughter them! Have no mercy. These fictions are no use to you. They keep you from your best work and enslave you in the false idea that they have come to represent in your mind.
Still Striving For Success? Consider This Instead
All this striving for success is exhausting. I’m in my 43rd year on this earth and this has certainly been my experience.

Patterns Of Behaviour: Why We Do What We Do
When I load the dishwasher I do so with certain noticeable patterns of behaviour, order and structure. I set it up in such a way that ensures the glasses, cups, dishes and cutlery get washed properly and it makes it easy to unload later. But not everyone in our house does. Here’s how I’ve managed to deal with that.
Reaction To The Artist’s Manifesto Plus All The Juice From Last Week
There’s been a very positive reaction to The Artist’s Manifesto released last week which is brilliant. I obviously want to reach people who feel the same as I do, but I’m careful not to get too hung up on reaction.
Stupid Economics! Plus All The Juice From Last Week
Economics are game ball, I accept the relevance of economic sciences especially that in relation to the study of human behaviour. After all, economics is psychology playing out in global and national societies. It just that our over reliance on the opinion of economists is driving our society deeper into dysfunction. Stupid economics kills people.
