The world has changed – the old structures are falling away and the guarantees of the experience of success are not what they once were. We chase the outward vision of success, and yet leave our true selves behind. Being ‘on show’ 24 hours a day, the increased pace of life, global competition, strangled economics and relentless pressure are all taking their toll.

In a connected world where there is almost limitless, around-the- clock choice and instant gratification is at our fingertips, I believe that we are seeking greater meaning out of life and searching for different ways of rewarding ourselves. As individuals facing almost constant change, we are finding that we have a mass of complex needs and therefore ‘success’ is no longer so easily experienced and understood.
