Month: October 2025

Eternal gateway
Through which we dare not enter…
Until it draws us

Build resilience
A broad base of opinion
Cover the angles

Amidst all the jobs
You need some time for yourself
Don’t lose sight of that

Know when to down tools
Fight the urge to continue
You need time for you

Always one more test
The need for growth, unending
Stamina runs low

On firm foundations
Lasting structures can be built
Watch them rise with pride

When spirits sag low
A smile can’t always raise them
More an act of will

Constantly adapt
Innovate and re-invent
Always bring your best

Keep plugging away
Chiselling down the backlog
One chip at a time

Which ones do you choose?
Conflicting priorities
All ranked number one

Not by intention
But constant repetition
Thus are habits built

So much to get done:
How do you fit it all in?
With careful choices

Pressure piling on
Work and life out of balance
See the long term goal

Difficult, perhaps
Never insurmountable
There’s always a way

Sins of omission
Nothing more that can be done
Just accept and learn
