The Entrepreneurial Life of Stephen Mitchell
Writing About My Life, Work, Creativity, and the Daily Effort to Learn, Grow, and Be Better.
Since 2020, awareness around neurodiversity has broadened. It’s no longer hidden behind clinical jargon or whispered confessions. More people now recognise that Autism exists on a spectrum that touches nearly everyone in some way. That shift has helped me drop the shame and instead embrace the idea that understanding ourselves is a strength, not a... Continue Reading →
It’s a strange comfort, isn’t it? Living in a time where you can speak your thoughts out loud - messy, meandering, unfiltered - and have them typed out for you in seconds. No more scribbling on napkins or searching for pens that don’t work. You just speak, and there it is. Your truth, staring back... Continue Reading →
Sometimes I catch myself mid-conversation realising I’ve veered off course, lost momentum, or just plain confused the poor bugger trying to keep up. Whether I’m rambling, mumbling, or being a bit too clever with my words, I know I’m not alone. We all have our quirks when we speak. While some habits are better off... Continue Reading →
You may not have noticed: There are NO MORE TAGS on my blog. Yes - I deleted the lot. Why? Because most were words within the article - which effectively made them duplicates, therefore redundant.

As someone very passionate about developing AI tools and prompts to help small businesses build their online presence and boost marketability, I see the next decade as an incredible opportunity. From optimising processes... Continue Reading →
I've come to see that being in a relationship is akin to running a successful small business. It's a thrilling journey that demands dedication, resilience, and a good sense of humor - because let's face it, there are ups and downs at every stage. In the beginning, it's like stepping into a fairy tale. Everything... Continue Reading →
I’ve learnt that how I start my morning sets the tone for the whole day—especially working online, running my own business, juggling creative projects, and wearing a dozen different hats before breakfast. If I don’t take control early, the day tends to take control of me. Over time I’ve built a simple but solid morning... Continue Reading →
After six years of honing my window-cleaning technique, I've become faster and more efficient without compromising quality. This has made me realize that relying solely on hourly rates can harm any business profit margin. I've recently recognised that I need to shift the focus from the hourly-price to the value of the service provided, thereby... Continue Reading →
