wellbeing of all people in this and future generations can be secured and sustained through the building

of a just society. My understanding of a just society is one that is structured in such a way as to promote right

relationships so that human rights are respected, human dignity is protected, human development is facilitated

and the environment is respected and protected. The world today is a long way from achieving that kind of

vision. Yet we do have the resources and the capacity to move in that direction; in this generation we can

take substantial steps towards that vision. Receiving the Cork Person of the Month and of the Year awards was a

humbling experience for me – an endorsement from my

own place of what I had done and was doing. No award can match the endorsement of one’s own people. My

nomination for the award was a complete surprise to me. I am extremely grateful to Paddy O’Brien who

nominated me and who himself deservedly won these same awards. I believe these awards are an excellent

way to recognise and acknowledge the talent, the achievements and the work of Cork people. The range

of activities in which award winners have been engaged are vast. The winners have come from all strands of

Cork life which is hugely positive and goes to show we are a truly egalitarian people.”

“It was such a surprise and honour for me to be

chosen as a Cork Person of the Month. I suppose in my

own thoughts I was just a Mum, but the fact that my

difficult pregnancy, birth and continuous struggles with

the boys were acknowledged just meant so much to

me. The award also acknowledged my on-going charity

work which was quite overwhelming and meant a lot

to me. These awards are so important, as the unsung

heroes or normal regular people like myself are made

feel that what they do or go through is acknowledged

and noticed. After these awards I felt I didn’t feel quite

as alone.

In Cork, I feel we truly have a beautiful, welcoming

city and county. Cork also offers wonderful opportunities

for companies wishing to invest here as we have very

talented and professional people. UCC has turned

out some of the greatest Corkonians, my obvious

favourite being Dr Edward Kiely, the surgeon who led

the medical team who separated my twins at London’s

Great Ormond Street hospital.

For sure the Cork humour and wit got us through a

rough recession. I suppose one of the most admirable

things about us Corkonians is that through the toughest

of times we find laughter. Even in my own personal

circumstances I remember when my little twins were

still conjoined and receiving two appointments in the

post for them. They told me Hassan’s appointment

was 2.30pm and Hussein’s was 3pm – I laughed till my

tummy hurt! In true Cork style I was going to ring up the

hospital and tell them one of the twins couldn’t make

it that day! (It would have been impossible considering

they were still conjoined!!!) In the tough times of a

recession we helped each other out, and it’s lovely that

Cork still has that care for its people. We help each

other in our times of need.

We have a beautiful city and county, the friendliest

people in the world, and incredible places to visit

whether it’s somewhere like Fota Wildlife Park, Cobh’s

Titanic centre or our many beautiful coastal towns –

there’s just so much to see and do here. There was a

reason I chose to stay in Ireland for my honeymoon

back in 1999! I am very optimistic about Cork’s future

as I feel we are climbing back out of the recession and

welcoming tourists back into our county again. I think

we can still do more in advertising what Cork has to

offer tourists. Look at Queen Elizabeth – she absolutely

loved her time in Cork so we should try to get Cork

back on the map! I also feel we should look more at

what Cork has to offer. I am always blown away by

the local Cork talent I see at Cork Opera house and

the amazing sopranos we have along with incredible

dancers. We have so much world class talent here and I

think we need to showcase that more.

One of my most special places in Cork is Youghal

beach. I remember as a child having the happiest times

there and when my little boys were still joined we

brought them there and told them to smell the sea air

and listen to the waves. We promised if they survived

their separation we would return to Youghal beach on

their first birthday. Which we did! A year to the day after

of Cork people. We are a hardworking people with a

great love for city and county who have always strived

to make things better for each generation. This spirit

and determination are as strong today as ever and,

coupled with what Cork offers in terms of education,

business, infrastructure and lifestyle, I have every belief

that we will continue to work towards the betterment

and development of the county, not only as somewhere

of significance within Ireland but also throughout the

world. My greatest achievements are that I continue to

learn, both from my failures and my successes, and that

my family and I have a close and loving relationship,

and that I have been granted the grace to recognise

the vital importance of family in life. My inspirations

are three: my grandmother who taught me self-belief

and that to succeed you have to work hard; my father

who encouraged me to dream big and that success is

in following your dreams, not in achieving them – he

believed that, if you succeed, that should be treated as

a bonus; my mother who taught me the importance of

family, to never give up on what you believe in, to be

proud of who you are and where you come from, and

to always honour others. All three are proud Norries –

Cork northsiders – and they passed on that love of the

north side of the city to me. Never procrastinate, live life

to the fullest every day, be positive, believe in yourself

and the goals you set and do what you can to achieve

them. Have dreams and goals in life no matter what

they are. Believe in them and don’t be afraid to fail.

Listen to what your critics have to say, learn what you

can from them, but don’t let them dissuade you from

making your dreams reality. Remember that the person

who never tried to achieve their goals never succeeded

in doing anything. Love your family, respect others and

be the best that you can be in this life.”

TAKE FIVE

Everyone’s LifeMatters Personal Support Plan gives you life skills and ideas for

taking good care of you. As you work through these pages you may notice

that the way you think affects the way you feel and in turn affects the way you

behave, so it is helpful to understand and try out ideas in Step One and Step

Two before Step Three.

A healthy body, a healthy mind, positive personal behaviours and good

relationships with other people are important life skills that will help you get

the best out of your self your life, and others. This workbook is full of ideas to

help you think, feel and behave in ways that create ease and confidence.

potential through the Steps and skills outlined in this workbook. You don’t have

to wait until your life is problem-free before you can be happy, peaceful or

enjoy success. You can work at boosting your life now!

PERSONAL VALUES

Research has shown that positive personal values are like seeds: they send out

the roots and shoots of our lives. They ‘ground’ us when we are fearful and give

us wings when we need to ‘fly’. Positive personal values provide the foundation

and the strongest kind of motivation for achieving the goals we most want to

achieve. What ‘seeds’ are you sowing in your life? What are your personal

values? What kind of life are you setting up for yourself?

Questions to explore.

Take a moment to think about what what you value is most important to you

in your life.

What qualities best describe or define you?

What interests or motivates you?

What values do you want to demonstrate in your life? What do you stand for?

What are your core values ?

Some examples of values include things like: friendship, family, gratitude,

positive mind set, compassion, serenity, honesty, loyalty, giving your best,

being good to family, being good to friends, being loving; peace of mind,

contentment, respect, trust; taking care of yourself.

What qualities best describe you? What do you care about ?

What values are important to you ? What gives your life value, meaning,

direction ?
