Mike Scantlebury's Articles in Inspirational

  • Alternatives to leading a double life
    Every one of us is a superhero. You may not see that, because most of us spend more time living as Clark Kent, mild mannered reporter, than we do as Superman. Unfortunately, keeping such secrets is hard work and uses most of our energy. We don't have much thought and inspiration left to perform super deeds, when we're pre-occupied hiding. Why not make a change? Dash into that phonebox now. Get changed.
  • Alternatives to morality
    Some people say 'If it ain't against the law, then why can't we do it?' but there is more to life than that. There's morality. People might disagree on the details but discussing 'right and wrong' is topical in any culture. What works now? Join Mike Scantlebury in thinking about consequences.
  • Alternatives to the past
    What's so good about the past? It seems so certain, so solid. It's there to tell us who we are and where we came from. Actually, it doesn't exist. It's there in our heads and we have to recreate the details in our minds. It's actually as flabby and full of fantasy as our dreams about the future. Let Mike Scantlebury demolish your obsessions and chip away at your bad memories. After all, they're holding you back.
  • Alternatives to emotions
    There's a mountain of books out there that will encourage you to 'listen to your heart' and 'go with your gut'. Mike Scantlebury, ever helpful, swims against the tide as usual and urges caution. Just because you feel something inside, it doesn't mean that it's going to help you with your life. It might just be indigestion. Or it might be an innate fear. Fine, but if you want to move forward, you need more than that.
  • Alternatives to SUMO
    'Moving On' is good advice for all kinds of self improvement, but is it essential to 'Shut Up'? Mike Scantlebury explores the options for trying to ditch bad feelings and make progress in your life. Find out what 'SUMO' means, then compare it to 'TOMO' or 'SOMO'. One way or another, it's possible to get to where you want to be.
  • Alternatives to speed
    Who do we think we are fooling? When we rush around hectically, always hurrying, do we seriously think that people are conned into believing that what we are doing is important, and where we are going means anything? Are we rushing in order to convince ourselves that any of it really matters?
  • Alternatives to standing still
    It's common sense. Standing still takes no energy and jogging burns up calories. Wrong. Life's not like that. Every day we struggle and strain just to stay where we are, not because we like it, but because it feels familiar. We interpret that as comfortable and safe. Wrong. Changing course is almost as difficult as staying in the same rut. Try it.
