Welcome to the Ascent tribe

Ascent is company…a tribe…a group of enlightened individuals who share a passion for helping, supporting, and encouraging people to be their very best and achieve their highest potential in their work as well as in their play. This is a social network for people who share in that passion and who are also on their own journey of self-discovery.

As a tribe, our vision is to be a centre of excellence for self-development and transformational leadership. While that may sound like heavy stuff, we bring an air of lightness to it by never taking ourselves to seriously and remembering to laugh and have fun no matter how difficult the task may be.

And who knows, we might just help change the world in the process.

Ascent

What myth are you living?

This question comes courtesy of Carl Jung, who was fond of using myths to help us understand our individual and collective self. Personal mythology is a very powerful self-development tool. What my... Continue

who are you when you are not being who you already are?

When I'm not being who I already am, I find myself trying to be who people think I should be. I get caught in the trap of trying to live up to other peoples' expectations of me. I find that this ha... Continue

(photos taken on my iphone, near Offchurch)

I dusted the cobwebs off of my mountain back yesterday and went for a ride in the countryside. It's amazing that when you look closer, you can find all sorts in your own back garden. There isn't a need to travel to far off places to find and experience things you've never done before.

Anyway, it was nice to get out and ride. I did 16 miles altogether. (I went ou…

wanted: a drummer with a different beat

Go for it is the mantra that is banging around in my head at the moment. I can make my own way through this game with a little effort and a no fear attitude to forge my own path and not be hell bent on following the path laid by others or to do what the herd is doing…in short, I can do this thing if I am willing to march to the beat of my own drum.

what's your legacy

What's the legacy that you're leaving behind? Consider this: When you're no longer here on this planet, what is that people will remember you for? What would you like them to remember you for? With that in mind, how are you going to approach your job and your life so that you are creating a legacy you can be proud of?

A Mountain Too Far

Here's a cross post from the guys I lead up Snowdon to do the leadership short film: Well we’re back from Mount Snowdon and we are all still alive. That’s the good news. The bad news is that we didn’t make it to the top, not that getting to the top was our original intenti… Continue

some things should not be forgotten

Earlier this week I was in Snowdonia. As regular readers of my blog will know, I spend a lot of time in the mountains of Snowdonia, as they are, in effect, a spiritual home for me. This time I was there for a different reason. I was being interviewed for my thoughts on leadership. The producer of the film, Tim Clague, thought it would be great to capture my thoughts on leadersh…
