     Rach: Glad you had a chance to read the article – really sobering and a good reminder that we all need to take the time to step back every once in awhile, look at the big picture and ask ourselves what we really want out of life.

   I read that article a few weeks ago and loved it, glad you posted it, so lots of other creatives can benefit from it.

   Its a great message and such a wake up call. Really like that he also mentions he worked in Edinburgh as that’s where I am

   Lind’s blog http://www.lindsredding.com is really good – he’s a very interesting character with an awesome perspective on things.

   Have a cool weekend.

   Wow, thanks for posting that first link! Really touched me – shared it as soon as I finished it. Pretty close to home as I left my job last year due to stress related illnesses – and I’m only 26! This industry is killer, but I look forward to finding a way of making it beneficial and liveable

   Thanks for your continually inspiring blog!
