Of all the duties and ceremonies I have the honour of undertaking in service to His Majesty King Charles III and the Lord-Lieutenant of Cambridgeshire, none moves me more than Remembrance Sunday. Today, I had the privilege of representing the Lord-Lieutenant in the beautiful market town of March, Cambridgeshire, where I was honoured to lead the procession and lay the first wreath. There is something incredibly powerful about seeing an entire community come together. Young and old, people from all walks of life, standing shoulder to shoulder in quiet reflection, remembering those who made the ultimate sacrifice so that we might enjoy the freedom, peace and security we so often take for granted. March did itself proud today. The respect, dignity and sense of community were truly humbling. I don't think it matters how tough you think you are. When you stand amongst hundreds of people in silence, reflecting on the lives lost, the families torn apart and the extraordinary sacrifices made for generations they would never meet, it's almost impossible not to be deeply moved. It's a reminder of just how much we owe to those who came before us, and why we must never allow their sacrifice to be forgotten. To everyone who organised, participated in or attended today's service, thank you. We will remember them. 🌺

Attached are the 100 biggest breakthroughs from a month of live, unscripted mentoring sessions with founders and business owners. Trades, engineering, healthcare, wholesale, property, professional services and more, from sole traders to businesses with hundreds of people. Different sectors, different sizes, different challenges. The same principles came up again and again. These aren't theories. They came from real conversations, real decisions and real numbers. Pricing, people, cash flow, marketing, systems, mindset and life. Everything is anonymised, so you can read freely what other founders are wrestling with right now. Any one of these could improve your business. Implement a handful together, and they could transform your business, your life and your legacy. One great idea or proven principle can change your business. 100 can change your life, your future and your legacy. Read them. Push back on them. Test them in your own business. Then drop a comment below: which one are you putting into action this week? ...see the classroom on this link: https://www.skool.com/theboard/classroom/bafe9059?md=aac6c541f0194aa5987bbce40a7a98e5

These are some of the pumpkins we carved last year, and I'm really looking forward to continuing our annual family tradition again this year. It's such a simple thing. A pumpkin costs a couple of quid. You sit around the table together, carve out some ridiculous faces, laugh at each other's efforts and, more importantly, talk. About your day. Your week. Your year. What's going well, what's not, and what's happening in each other's lives. It's fun, it's therapeutic, and it's a wonderful way to reconnect. There are thousands of designs on Instagram, YouTube and across the internet if you need a little inspiration. But here's my real point. Not every day needs to be about business, profit, growth or productivity. Sometimes the most valuable, powerful and productive thing you can do is switch everything else off and spend a couple of hours being together. No agenda. No targets. No deadlines. Just family, laughter, conversation and a few pumpkins. Because ultimately, it's often the simplest traditions that become the strongest cement holding families or teams together. So why not grab a few pumpkins this weekend and make some memories? You might find those couple of hours are worth more than anything else you could have achieved today. Happy Halloween! 🎃
