State of Play 4: Dark
From music to fashion to leisure, a lot has changed in my life over the past three weeks, all guided by the darkness I’ve been feeling as we head into 2021.

When people find out how much I work, and how little leisure time and sleep I get, they’re shocked. Here, I explain my attitude to work, and how a part of my brain is wired.
Now that I have a dedicated home office space, I’ve had to get creative to utilise the space in a way which fulfils all of my needs, from work to leisure and everything inbetween.

After a challenging couple of months, it’s Christmas at last. On the happiest day of the year, how do I feel?
With the worst year of our lives coming to a close, how has my Year of Commitment held up, has it been a success, and what will my focus be for the year ahead?
I can’t recall a three-week period in recent memory whereby so much has changed in such a short period of time, and throughout which I’ve been through such a rollercoaster of emotions.
In this first instalment of State of Play, I discuss my work ethic, my increased stress levels as of late, and how I’ve been balancing responsibility and discipline with looking after myself in what are becoming progressively more difficult times for all of us.
With the daily commute offering me a lot of free time, I discuss the podcasts I’m listening to right now, why I listen to them, and what I’m getting out of them.
With the COVID-19 pandemic wreaking havoc on everyone’s plans for this year, I take a look at how the subsequent chain of events have impacted on my Year of Commitment, the progress I have made so far, and my aims for the rest of the year.
Looking back at previous projects, learning from my mistakes, and moving forwards.
