PERMA. I know what you’re thinking and no I’m not talking about an 80’s style hair du. I’m talking about a new age theory of happiness brought to life by none other that than the man himself, Martin Seligman. Never heard of this chap? Don’t worry, it’s not important really, all you need to know ...

In recent years, I’ve learnt so much about the brain that my biologist teacher guy at school would be super impressed with my efforts. Come to think of it, I didn’t even study biology yet I can officially call myself an injuredbrainologist and yes I have coined that term. My point is, I’ve learnt a ...

Ok, so the gun went off and it was game on. Stiff shit if you’re not ready, Scott, we just can’t sit around waiting for you. In this game, procrastination is one strike, two strikes, three strikes and whoops, you missed the boat… Just like that silly boat that took off without me from Athens, ...

Between my editor, who has been in the book game for 20+ years and my uncle who has written 20+ books, I was told 20+ times that this would happen. Did I take it as gospel? OF COURSE NOT! Once again, I’m sitting here in front of the keyboard with egg all over my face ...

I used to look at myself and say, ‘Scott, you’re a lazy sack of dogs turd, just do it already… stop being lazy.’ It actually turns out that there’s a little science to this laziness and it’s actually a problem I face because of my injured brain. ‘Initiating, planning and organizing’ is the term that ...

Ok I’m not going to talk about how I cook an injured brain because I’m not really into cannibalism all that much, so I’m going to talk about how I cook WITH an injured brain instead. Cooking is one of those things that you either love or you hate and I’ll be honest with you ...

To continue on from last week, this weeks post is all about how Emma does what she does. So, how on god Earth did a girl with such difficulties, travel to another country on her own? Well, it’s all about planning she says; knowing what each and every pit stop entails, and planning for it. ...

When you think of having a stroke, 10 bucks says that you imagine a baby boomer sitting down, drinking their afternoon cuppa, maybe a couple of scones with jam and cream (no offense baby boomers), and then boom, they have a stoke. You may imagine a heavy smoker, kicking back in their la-z-boy after a ...
