In software engineering, we are often encouraged to think about our contribution...

👉 What did " I " do yesterday...?
👉 What am " I " doing today...?

The language we use, both inwardly and outwardly, sets the tone for how we work and interact with others…

Software engineering is a team game; our language should reflect that…

The obvious:
👉 What did "the team" do yesterday?

Do you give pull requests and code reviews the time they deserve…?

👉 They can be difficult to juggle when you’ve got your own work to do…
👉 Which can lead to them not getting the attention they deserve…
👉 Which can lead to poor code or, worse, poor communication…

Performing effective code reviews is an underrated skill…

It's not just about the code…

Author Jules Horne on How Writers Can Use Deliberate Practice to Build Skills and Confidence

I'm more of a pantser—someone who figures things out on the page rather than planning every move. But when I heard that Scottish author and writing coach Jules Horne had applied the concept of deliberate practice—something musicians and athletes have…

"The future is an attitude!" - Futurist Jim Carroll

It's Monday morning. What are you waiting for?

With that being the case, why not have an image where I'm staring up into a teleportation portal? It's my future, and I get to imagine it!

You should do the same thing.

If you're feeling too comfortable right now with the future, you probably aren't thinking hard enough about the trends that will reshape your reality. You need to be scared; you need to be nervous; you need to have big ideas; you need to stretch your imagination; you need to be prepared to accept that everything is going to change—and most importantly, you need to be ready for action. After all, there might one day be teleportation portals - not in our life, but sometime!

That's why you need to think about this simple fact - the future isn't just. something you Watch - it's something you embody. The future is an attitude. While everyone else is busy tracking trends and technologies, they're missing something crucial: it's not just about knowing what's coming—it's about how you approach it, internalize it, and act on it.

The most successful people don't just observe the future; they have a mindset that embraces it and takes immediate steps to make it real. Anyone can read about emerging trends, but those who truly thrive in tomorrow's world cultivate specific attitudes that transform challenges into opportunities—and then act on them without hesitation. With that being the case, think about the mindsets that will help you stay ahead.

And most important - do something today - right now - Monday morning - that will get you moving! Here are 10 ideas you should think about right now - and 10 things you should commit to doing THIS MORNING.

Later this morning, Futurist Jim Carroll will have his winter tires swapped out. He’s preparing for a future that involves warmer weather.

The Problem with trying to define Wellbeing is that there is no one size fits all definition...

We all have the power to decide what wellbeing means for us…

Wellbeing can mean completely different things to different people…

🟢 If you find yourself feeling lethargic all the time, improving your wellbeing might mean looking at your diet and physical activity.
