The Paul Ippolito Outlook
As I get older, I try and only do things I enjoy doing, and I also try and say “no” to the rest.
Indeed “No” has become one of my favourite words over the years.
This echoes the realisation that life is temporary, fragile and far too short to do things you don’t want to.
When Is Enough Enough?
Post-pandemic, our outlook on the balance between work and life has shifted.
I believe our lives are being re-invented and re-designed, and we are now on a pathway to a new beginning.
This excellent YouTube video really nails it when it comes to the concept of when is enough and enough, and working out what truly matters.
I also came across this excellent YouTube video here on the pro’s of retiring as early as you can.

What Advice Would You Give Your Younger Self?
Drop me a line and tell me!
Here is another great little YouTube video that I came across.
Some of my own bits of advice to myself were;
Most bad things I worried about didn’t actually happen.
Back yourself when it really matters.
Try and work for yourself as soon as you can.
Don’t associate with toxic people.
Failures are just lessons. Learn from them.
Take feedback from those you love or respect, ignore the rest.
Be kind to yourself.
and lastly but most importantly,
Put your health and family first!
Rome Wasn’t Built In A Day!
How long does it take to reach the pinnacle of your profession, to achieve success in your chosen field, or to cultivate your true passion?
I watched this on Netflix this week.
It reinforced to me the power of self belief, following your vision and persistence.
Oh, and Happy 70th Birthday Jerry Seinfeld!
