FIVE THINGS THAT ARE INSPIRING ME RIGHT NOW
THE POWER OF LETTING GO
BY JOHN PURKISS
This is a book that teaches you to live intuitively, taking you through various stages including being present, letting go of the thoughts that keep you stuck, letting go of the pain that runs your life, surrendering and tuning into something far more intelligent than your brain.
ARSENAL FC
Forever and always my first love. Although we fell off at the back end of the season, what the teams have shown is pure grit.
IAN WRIGHT
I call him ‘Uncle Ian’ – an Arsenal Legend. For me, he changed the dynamics of punditry, he allowed them to truly showcase their personality. Ian has been a role model for me since childhood, and a constant source of inspiration from day one.
THE 90s
The 90s as a whole will always inspire me. We saw huge technological advances and the music scene had so many different facets. The fashion scene was popping – alot of the key trends we are seeing today have been taken directly from this time.
KE HUY QUAN
The resurgence of Ke Huy Quan is astounding. From Indiana Jones and The Goonies, he has been plugging away for nearly 40 years, and only now is he receiving his flowers following his Oscar winning performance in Everything, Everywhere at Once.
DEXTER'S WORK
"Right now, I am really loving how men have adapted the ‘Mixie’ and added a more masculine take on it." - dexter
