The Entrepreneurial Life of Stephen Mitchell
Writing About My Life, Work, Creativity, and the Daily Effort to Learn, Grow, and Live Better.
In the discussions I often find myself within, I notice many of my friends (other small business owners plus online keyboard jockeys) are debating the importance of cash and why it should remain. Having cash on hand is crucial for Australians, whether for personal use or running a business. Without enough cash, you could face... Continue Reading →
I am always looking for a new hobby that will both give me pleasure plus could earn me a few extra dollars to support my family. Last night I found a few shoe-boxes of semi-polished rocks I collected at various beaches around Australia. They reminded me of a passion I have had for many years:... 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.

At the time I also asked on Facebook (in a KI Q&A group) what should be done in the short term: All my good friends on Kangaroo Island suggested the 9Volt battery needed replacing. Yes, there is one inside the device.... Continue Reading →
This time last year we made a BIG decision: To move our family to Kangaroo Island. Explaining the benefits to each of our families actually didn't take a lot, but there are a few who have not yet been there. Yesterday morning I videoed some of my morning walk. Because of the tranquillity of Kingscote,... Continue Reading →
A Youtubing Vlogger. Does that sound right? Should it be a Vlogger who Youtubes? Anyhow, it's heaps of fun. It's early days yet, I am getting the hang of it all. I use Movavi for editing all the interesting moments in my life. Most recently I took the perfect opportunity to video my friends and... Continue Reading →
