Who are you? And why it's important to know.

Do you know who you are? 

Of course you do. But do you know who you are when it comes to work. And what you stand for?

It's a question that makes you think. It certainly made me think and that's why I've spent the last week or so (months actually as I started writing this in October!) seriously thinking about what I stand for. I felt I needed to nail this.

_re y_u my type? Give _l__d.

No, it's not code. It's the national Missing Type campaign from Scottish National Blood Transfusion Service for National Blood Week. It's all over social media and the internet, and right on our high streets, so if you haven't seen it you must be walking around with a blindfold on.

Noise. It's everywhere.

Everyday noise from people, places and objects just gets to me.

I've been thinking about writing this piece for a while. Not so much procrastinating like I usually do, maybe just assessing what specific noise annoys me, and also quietly processing how to have less of it in my every day life. All day. Every day. How do I, even we, switch off from it?

Christmas. Don't believe the hype.

So...what to do if you're not feeling the festive spirit? And haven't indulged in drinking any to pretend that you are full of cheer? Fear not...it's allowed.

It's actually much easier than you think.

But after some digging to find out who the agency was that created it and the director, it turns out it wasn't produced by the brand themselves. Or and agency. In fact, chances are Johnnie Walker might not even know it exists.

The Men of MCY.

Finally I get to share the recent film we made. It's about men doing yoga. Say what? I hear you...and that's the point. Who'd have thought men actually went to a class full of women and joined in their yoga class. But when you attend a class at Merchant City Yoga there's a whole bunch of guys there already doing it. And they're not all doing it secretly. Some actually started yoga with their girlfriend or wife and when the female half of the duo gave up, the guys kept going.

How to set up a business in 24 hours.

That's 1440 minutes. 86,400 seconds. That's almost 66 episodes of The Big Bang Theory. However, I think there's only so much one could take of Sheldon in 24 hours. Then again...If you haven't watched it, just do it. So, you get the drift, there's a lot you can do in 24 hours. What did I do this weekend? I set up a new business.
