The great Chinese philosopher Confucius said, ‘pick a job you like and you will never work a day in your life’ and God knows I have been many things: a teacher, an actor, a, usually highly animated, armchair advisor to some of the greatest footballers in the world – Liverpool FC forever! – (I wasn’t paid for the last one), until I realised that, amazingly, people were prepared to pay me for one of the other great loves of my life. Words!
Long words. Short words. Broad words that bowl you over. Svelte, slender words that shimmy into your subconscious but most of all… The Right Words.
To me finding the right words is as satisfying as a Springbok try which wrenches victory from the face of defeat in the last minute of a world cup final against the All Blacks and I hunt them down with all the tenacity of a terminator sent back from the future to pursue Sarah Connor.
And on that note I hope that this blog can serve as a useful aid in helping you find a job that helps you use your talents and rewards you for doing so for if there are battles we must choose in life then this is surely one of them.
