The Entrepreneurial Life of Stephen Mitchell
Writing About My Life, Work, Creativity, and the Daily Effort to Learn, Grow, and Live Better.
It's 1:00am and I am still writing articles. I do this, I enjoy it so much that I sometimes forget to sleep. It's sadly true. With a good music on beside me, I tip-tap-type away because I enjoy releasing my thoughts, my ideas, and all the learnings I have acquired from lots of reading to... Continue Reading →

1. Listen, Learn Do! Kids need discipline, no matter what age. Yes, I sound like my father - but I have finally realized how true this is. The harder it is to enforce, the more necessary it is. I built this message out of necessity to make my kids realize that this message is a... Continue Reading →
Whilst there is nothing funny about war, some of the best cartoon-art has been created to say so much about the sh1t that's happening in Ukraine now. I unfortunately can't give credit to any of the original artists of these images. They are welcome to let me know. But Putin can go f.... well, you... Continue Reading →
