He had signed his will a few weeks earlier, and two days after his birthday, he was dead. The official records say little, but a local vicar later wrote that Shakespeare, along with fellow writers Ben Jonson and...

The Well Read Poem
S12E6: Idea 61, "Since there's no help, come let us kiss and part" by Michael Drayton
For the twelfth season of the Well-Read Poem, we are reading four poems by William Shakespeare, whose genius as a lyric poet is best appreciated in his collection of 154 sonnets. Shakespeare is of course the supreme dramatic poet of the English language; yet if only his sonnets and shorter poems had survived out of his great body of work, it is not too much to say that he may still have enjoyed a certain literary immortality, albeit of a different sort. In addition to four sonnets by Shakespeare, we will be taking a look at two sonnets by fellow...

Why men kill themselves...
Would you notice if a partner, friend or work colleague was feeling suicidal?If someone you love or someone you know, takes their own life by suicide, it’s just awful. It feels unbearable. It's the living who suffer. However, it’s important to remember that it’s not your fault. This was a decision made by the person who took their life and not caused by something you did or didn’t say, or did or didn’t do.If you are worried about someone, all you can do, is listen, be kind to them...

What do you do when your day hasn't gone well?
How was your journey home yesterday?Did you sit in your car, or on the train, going over the events of the day? Going over and over the conversations you had - what you could have said, what you should have said. When you got home, did it continue. Instead of inside your head, you went over things with who ever would listen, "you wouldn't believe the day I have had, and I should have done this and I could have done that..."

Helping someone to change...
Do you work or live with someone who really needs to change - but won't? Not only do they resist all efforts to help them, but don't even acknowledge there's a problem? Perhaps it is someone who upsets people they work with. Or a teenager who ought to do more to get ready for their exams. You can't simply force people to change.... but you can influence their willingness to change. This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or ge...

Self Love is Great, but do you like yourself
Diving back into deepening our relationship with ourself by exploring Self Like and practices that we can look at to see where we're at and how we can get to a better place. Differentiating between our soul messages and our mean girl mind. Books referenced - The Untethered Soul - Michael A Singer, Big Magic - Elizabeth Gilbert (where she definitely said the thing about fear and I paraphrased wildly)

Can a belief kill you?
Can a belief kill you? Can something as intangible and ephemeral as a belief, thought or attitude kill you?Well, yes they can - and they do kill millions of people every year. Most deaths from illness are caused by beliefs. The belief that smoking, drinking too much, eating junk food and not taking exercise only damages the health of other people. These are all pretty obvious examples of beliefs leading to poor lifestyle choices with predictable consequences. What about something less obvious. For example, how could holding the belief that stre...

How to be more decisive...
Do you know someone who suffers with analysis paralysis? Someone who always ask for more and more information, rather than make a clear decision? Or, you might be that person.We'd all prefer to avoid making difficult decisions. This is because we fear making the wrong decision. The very anticipation of making the wrong choice is a powerful deterrent. The bigger the decision, the more the anxiety about taking action. In real life situations, the only decisions we can hope to make are imperfect decisions. An imperfect decision is better than none because once im...

Why diversity doesn't work...
A passenger boarded a flight, only to discover that she was allocated a seat beside someone who had political views that were different to hers. Feeling virtuous, she went into a full blown rant and demanded that the passenger be moved to another seat. It didn't help her mood, when the airline crew pointed out that this wasn't something that she could demand. After a deterioration in her behaviour, the woman was removed from the flight.Wouldn't life be simple if anyone we didn't agree with, could be moved...from the seat beside you, from the...

In April 1998, a glittering party was held in a Manhattan art gallery to launch a biography of the American Expressionist painter, Nat Tate. The party was attended by David Bowie, Gore Vidal, as well as gallery owners and art critics from influential papers such as the New York Times. Many of these experts in modern American art spoke enthusiastically about Nat Tate, warmly remembering aspects of his life, shows they had attended, and reflecting on the sadness of his premature death.

What do you do when you feel bored? Do you turn to your mobile phone for distraction or just nod off?There has never been so much to do. Whenever we feel the slightest twinge of boredom, we reach for our smartphone for instant gratification. If you walk around any city you will see people gazing down at their phones, rather than paying attention to what is going on around them. We live in a society where we are chronically over stimulated - 24 hour social media, shopping and TV. We should embrace boredom as a...

Eubank was clearly winning…No matter how hard Eubank hit Blackwell, Blackwell always came back for more. He was the embodiment of resilience, no matter how much pressure he was under, he stood there and took it and did his best to fight back.

The importance of status has its roots in our hunter gatherer past. When we as a species were evolving, your position in the social group to which you belonged, could be a matter of life and death and so evolution equipped us with brain circuits that constantly monitor our relative status. Even in trivial situations, like having a brief conversation with another person, deep in your brain there will be an awareness of your status relative to the other person.The brain's centers that register physical pain are very close to, and share some circuits of...

Overcoming procrastination
According to a recent study published in the European Journal of Economics, Finance and Administrative Sciences, procrastination was identified as one of the most important things that made people feel stressed. It was linked to poor performance, anxiety and even poor physical health.Stress isn’t caused by work, other people or the world in general. It’s caused by our perceptions of these things. Stress (or more accurately, anxiety) is internally generated and based on the way we think about our life, not on the reality of our life. And a good example of this is procrast...

At the same time, officials in London meet with General Burgoyne and agree to have him lead an invasion of upstate New York from Canada, thus angering several more senior generals who wanted that command.
