Welcome to The Successity Blog, a unique blog which explores success, adversity, screenwriting, films and mental health. This seemingly disparate series of topics combines to create some of the lynchpins of my waking world. They have added vast value to my life, and I love having the opportunity to share my passions and thoughts with my readers. Read on, and enjoy.

Hello from Robert Porter

Passion Makes Perfect

I started The Successity Blog with the goal of offering readers a glimpse into my thoughts and experiences.

I was in the midst of a high-powered legal career when I developed late-onset bipolar disorder. After a few years I was put on long-term sick leave. During this time I became a home-maker but also wrote articles and screenplays to keep my mind active. Recently one of my scripts was optioned and is due to shoot soon in South Africa.

My illness, hobbies and experience give me a unique take on the world, which I am keen to share. From discussion about success in adversity, to mental health, to tips on screenwriting and films and film reviews (and even some banter about cats) I am delighted to be able regularly to reach out to my audience on The Successity Blog.

And remember, well done is better than well said.

Enjoy!
