The Entrepreneurial Life of Stephen Mitchell
Writing About My Life, Work, Creativity, and the Daily Effort to Learn, Grow, and Live Better.
In the midst of life's hustle, I recently embarked on a personal journey seeking inner balance, a quest to enhance my mental well-being and find equilibrium for my emotions. Yearning for a serene sanctuary, I found myself atop Flagstaff Hill in Kingscote, Kangaroo Island. With a yoga mat as my companion, I sought a flat-surfaced... Continue Reading →
I can't stress enough the importance of sleep for Dads like me who work outdoors. It's a struggle, let me tell you. The long hours under the sun, braving the elements – it's all part of the job. But what many don't realize is the constant battle to get a good night's sleep. There's a... Continue Reading →
In my life journey, my aim is to put family first, achieve success in my small business, and make sure my health and well-being are in tip-top shape. Whilst life throws challenges and distractions my way, trying to throw me off track, I know that if I keep going, success is within reach. Sometimes it... Continue Reading →
One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well. The animal cried piteously for hours as the farmer tried to figure out what to do.

It has been a very busy first-month of 2021! To earn a few dollars I wash windows around Kangaroo Island - and I haven't stopped since the year began! 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 →
Since acquiring a new home on Kangaroo Island I have been keen to establish a vegetable garden. It's a WIP as I am building the chicken run first. It will include egg- and poo-collection containers that can be easily extracted and returned. Currently I am seeking 120 bricks - clinkers, pavers, building, other - to... Continue Reading →
I bought a blender for Xmas. Not for anyone else. I wanted it - to eat healthier breakfasts and lunches. I am now eating far better because of what I can do with it. Prior to purchase, I would have bland cereal and diluted cows milk followed by a rough-as-guts branded coffee. But now, oh... Continue Reading →
