Ill-trepreneur

Being an entrepreneur and being ill at the same time in principle doesn't really work that well. I'd say that one of the keys to being a successful entrepreneur is boundless energy, and sadly one of the main attributes of being ill is the fact that the "ill" (whatever that is) saps your energy.

So, having a bout of man-flu has really slowed me down over the last few days. Hey ho. On the upside of being ill, is that it kind of takes you to a different place from a thinking perspective. The chemical changes in a sick body (and mind) kinda change the way you look at things, and you (mainly for the good) get another perspective on life / work.

So being an ill-trepreneur isn't all that bad. In the good news section, is that we're frantically working with ad agency Ogilvy on a big pitch for Nestle at the mo which if it comes off should be v.cool + also I'm pushing ahead with my aMap project - trying to take it to market (which has meant pretty much setting up a publishing arm of our business, to add to the complexity of what we're already doing).

In the even better news section is that I'm off skiing to France next week, and there's snow - hurrah! Also, all the building work on my house in France is charging ahead - hurrooo + an additional building hurrooo comes in the form of the fact that Catherine's house is nearly finished (ish) so a move over Christmas is on the cards.
