There are two Café 62’s and I have stopped at both of them at times when I ride my bike with Simon, Louis, Neil or Dom or anybody else that want to. They’re not big, but they’re nice. They’re happy and generally the people that work in there seem to be pretty satisfied.

The last time we went into the one that is furthest away they were all decorated for Halloween and it looked amazing.

The more daft the world gets the more efficient everybody tries to become, the harder the targets get to hit, the easier it is to break outside and do something different like opening Café 62.

Of course is doesn’t have to be a coffee shop, it could be a dental practice somewhere where a corporate has already handed back the contract in a rural setting where you become part of the community. It could be any sort of business that your heart is in and that you enjoy working in but it just starts somewhere else; away from the madness, away from the nonsense. We all choose to work where we work and to live where we live but at times we forget the old adage …

… “Your work exists to give you the life that you want”.

Whenever your work stops to do that it really is time to think long and hard at whether it’s time to change your work for it to give you the life you want.
