I blog, randomly about the things I observe and the things I learn.
There is a blog around my new learning adventure on my yacht, called Wright Away, or find a category and explore.

Ten Years of Being Deepest – The SportsView Interview
For those of you who missed it, I have uploaded it to Youtube. One small error on the part of the producers, they have mis-identified support diver Derek Hughes as Nuno Gomes (sorry Nuno). Loved seeing the footage taken on the dive, especially the Boesmans stuff. The first footage is from Badgat where we practiced – you can tell because the water isn’t clear. The parts where it is wild and we are scrambling with kit over rocks are Boesmans. It is about a 20 minute ‘walk/ climb’ to get to a really small patch of water that then takes [...]
Dare to Stand Out – Own Your Identity
You can only change those things that you are aware of. Are you aware of who you are ? What is your identity ? How is it created ? Take some time to sit with those questions. How is ‘me’ created ? If you are like me, your identity is made up of how other people think of you. It never occurred to me that there was another way until my coach challenged me on that. It felt, wrong to choose to construct my own reality, as if I was dismissing other people in the process. It felt fake and [...]
Ten Years of Being Deepest
On 25 October, 2004 I set the ladies diving depth record. Who knew it would last ten years ? That dive proved to me that who I am isn't set in stone and that all it takes to change is a dream that won't let go! What if who you think you are and everything you believe to be true about yourself and how you fit into the world is a lie ? What if you are just like me ? That dive proved to me that limits are things I choose and that even though it is hard to [...]

What Would It Take to Love The Life/Job You Have ?
We spend so much time waiting for a specific event to happen, then we will be happy, then things will be fine and you will relax. So, has that happened yet ? Or are you living your life waiting for a future reality to make things all right ? What [...]
Things I Refuse to Accept
I refuse to accept…that I am not enough and so I can’t! I refuse to accept…that I need to an organisation or body or person, no matter how prestigious or powerful to recognise me or what I do. I refuse to accept…that you need to agree with me or help [...]
Wanna Give Up ? All Hope Gone ?
Some days hope is hard to find. Yes! I am living one of those days. I don’t enjoy this part of the process and sometimes I wonder if it really is worth even bothering to dream of something different. It is another morning that will become another day that will [...]

How You Talk To Yourself Counts – What Words Are You Using ?
We are so used to our thoughts that we don’t even notice them, even though they drive all our choices. What I love about thoughts is that they aren’t choices. They happUnderlineen on their own, without us. And even more disturbing, they create every moment we live…whether we are aware [...]
Why You Need to Ignore Your Emotions
Well maybe ignore isn’t the right word, perhaps question is better. Why ? Because emotions are habits – even worse emotion and the reactions they generate are unconscious habits that create your experiences. Not sure – well one or two episodes of the Housewives of Beverly Hills (or New York) [...]
Have you Given Up ?
I am not a saint, unless you think of a saint as a sinner who keeps on trying. Nelson Mandela Driving to work, the winter super moon hanging in a crystal winter sky I suddenly heard a voice ask me, Have you given up ? Living with Dare is about [...]
