How to take Olympic inspiration and use it for motivation in your life

Image
Every four years, we see the Olympics showcase some of the greatest sports and athletes in the world. Whilst you sit on the sofa watching the action, the Olympics is a prime opportunity to reboot your motivation and update what goals you want in life. It’s important to remember that these athletes have been preparing for these competitions for years and even decades. You might not be destined for the Olympics, but that doesn’t mean you can’t apply the same effort and dedication to your own life and work. Understanding that it takes time to achieve greatness will allow you to plot out long term goals and the short term stepping stones it will take to get you there. Here are some tips to help you find that motivation: The human body is capable of much more than you think The Olympics is full of outlandish flexibility, impressive endurance, and incredibly strong athletes. Don’t be discouraged by the elite level of athleticism you see on the TV. Rather, recognise it as a dis...

Today is World Environment Day!

It is the end of the week, and what makes it even better is the fact that today is World Environment Day! The United Nations created today as the primary vehicle for encouraging worldwide awareness for the environment. Over many years it has become more and more popular and is now considered a global platform for public outreach, giving over 100 countries the opportunity to celebrate the planet’s environment.

Canon’s recycling programme reaches 25th Year of Celebrations!

As some of you may know, Canon Europe are a very successful business and they are now celebrating the 25th anniversary of its laser toner cartridge recycling programme.

Reusing parts, recycling materials and energy recovery all combine together to play a vital part in not sending waste to landfill from the cartridges - making it environmentally efficient. The cartridges that are returned by cust...
