The Entrepreneurial Life of Stephen Mitchell
Writing About My Life, Work, Creativity, and the Daily Effort to Learn, Grow, and Live Better.
If you have seen my Facebook page, you'll see an image I created for my header that reads: GRIT - THE RAW ENDURANCE, PERSEVERANCE, PERSISTENCE AND PASSION THAT KEEPS YOU GOING, DESPITE OBSTACLES.

In the last week of 2007 my dutiful wife handed me a short, straightforward to-do list prior to Christmas day. Of the multitude of things, she had highlighted the one thing I hesitate to go near → my BBQ! The neglected grill hadn't seen the light of day or had a proper cleaning since Sarah...

After witnessing Mr Beast in conversation with Colin and Samir, I composed this article which delves into various aspects of his life.

Love to build a handgrip similar to GoPro... Continue Reading →

Some locations require a 30-45 minute drive - because some clients reside in remote locations around Kangaroo Island. You Saw My First Healthy Smoothie? I now... Continue Reading →
Yet again I am looking at Headphones! Why? During a 5KIxFM90.7 committee meeting earlier this week, we determined I am the ONLY radio presenter without personal headphones. The station has two sets in-station for guests, but because of Covid-19 every presenter is required to have their own. A few months back I first posted about... Continue Reading →
Every six months I export my browser bookmarks that I want to read but can't find the time. I often bookmark links that I feel warrant further reading, potentially learning, or that I want to share on twitter. I like to share. Today I am sharing all my CSS bookmarks.
