Nicola Cairncross explores the entrepreneur mindset, success thinking & digital marketing insights
If you've experienced success then failure, you can lose your self-confidence and wonder if you can ever make it work again. However, if you knew that every endeavour has only a 50/50 chance of success and that YOU bring the magic, 1% can really make a difference. But as always there's a twist in the tale...

Hi everyone, it's Nicola here and it's a bit of a gray old day in Stoupa. Yes, shock horror, we do get gray days here too. Not so often nowadays.
Yeah, just wanted to update you with what's going on, the 30-day challenge for "Be Everywhere Online" has started. We got about 70-odd people in there. And everybody's getting very animated and excited. They're on day two now, so basically I chunked the whole thing down into tiny steps every day. And hopefully, that's making people able to move through it.
It's interesting how that works isn't it? I think my brain just naturally chunks things down so it's interesting how some people need a bit of help with that. But I'm happy to give it, and it's great fun to watch everybody moving through it.
You may have noticed, I am wearing not black today. I've had a delivery of not black clothes, how exciting is that? And I think there's a few more to come yet. I've even got some colors. This is denim obviously. I've got jeans on as well. Don't die of shock. And it's really nice, it makes me feel a bit more normal.
While it was good to not care about what I wore for a while, and while it was good just to throw anything on as long as it was black, I'm starting to get a little bit more interested in clothes again now. So that's making me feel good.
What's not making me feel good this week is the Sahara sand, from Africa. Apparently every five years, they get a wind that comes straight off the Sahara, and it brings a lot of sand over. And it's very very fine, and I woke up a couple o' nights ago and I thought I had my friend Stella's lurgy. She came back from England with a coughing lurgy so I trotted off down the chemist yesterday afternoon and bought a bottle of cough mixture cause there's nothing I hate worse than being woken up at night by coughing you can't stop. And it turns out I'm not sick at all. I was expecting to get sicker and I didn't.
I've just figured out that perhaps its the sand that's bugging me. So I'm a little bit chesty today. I used to get asthma but I haven't had it for years and years and years. A little bit chesty today but I feel fine in myself so fingers crossed. You know, I haven't been sick for so long, I was really not looking forward to it. So I'm very happy to have a reprieve.
What else is news? We did our Write Club recording last week, we got seven episodes done. We did six, but one didn't record, can you imagine the pain of that? A one-hour podcast episode and you have to go back and do it all again. Luckily, we were able to do it although some of the jokes got left out, and some of the others didn't sound quite as good second time round. But we pressed through and we're very pleased that we've achieved it. So we're set now for the next six or seven podcast episodes.
Let's get on with the show shall we?
So this week I want to talk about the magic of you.
