Resources for self esteem

My friend Nick worked on this course with a friend of his who has sadly passed away, but he's made it available now for free in his memory. It includes a PDF guide plus two hours of supporting audio comprising seven easy lessons in how to identify what you know and competently teach it.

As Nick says, "we would love you to have access to Rick’s material free of charge – with just one condition – please use the material to teach what you have to share."

Might be of interest to all those "long-time learners, first-time teachers" out there?

I realised this week that I have started:

1) a website to promote curiosity and learning;
2) a consultancy advising people on harnessing human sociability; and
3) a campaign to help people be more conscious of how to manage their minds.

And so now I:

1) have no time to learn anything;
2) never see my friends; and
3) am really stressed.

The irony of this is not lost on me.

My friend Gavin runs this great service that runs workshops in 'digital health' and provides tools to help people have more positive and productive relationships with technology. I may need to book myself an appointment...

What's the mental health equivalent of five-a-day? Take the test and decide for yourself what *you* can do to manage your mind.

I've been thinking a lot about my relationship with technology lately, which is a big deal for someone in my line of work. In particular I've really been struggling to keep up with my level of incoming mail. Every day my inboxes are fuller than the day before. I hate being rude to people, and e-mail seems to be the quickest way to stack up uncompleted tasks. (And don't even get me started on Facebook.)
