The pieces in espresso offer clear, concise, evidence-based insights, and can be read in minutes on a phone or tablet. Like a good cup of coffee, they refresh your way of thinking, so you can see how to get what you deserve.

We all want happiness and most of us recognize that a happier society means better communication, trust and co-operation. Whether we like it or not, we’re all in this together and we feel it in every community that we belong to, whether it’s a family, a village, a sports team or workplace. I know from experience that awareness of this is the common factor in outstanding companies. Failure to honour this ethos results in tension, unhappiness, poor communication and inefficiency.

As we can have total control of our own beliefs, thoughts and actions, we can decide to use this ethos for both the benefit of ourselves and others. This is the first step in creating the world we want. It won’t necessarily translate into financial wealth or fame, but will certainly bring enjoyment, contentment, harmony and meaning.
