The light at the end of the tunnel...

What a week its been, my brain is absolutely overflowing with so much information, so much so, that tonight I plan to sit and quietly make sense of everything I've learnt this week. That's the party animal in me breaking free on a Saturday night.

Brain overload aside, now I need to work out what my next steps are personally and with my business plans.

Second Chances

Frustrated beyond belief with the low life's who took a hard earned reward and destroyed it just because they could.

My 17 year old sons motorbike was stolen from outside the pub where he works last night, a motorbike that he saved up every hard earned cent to buy all by himself.

Download Junkie

There's a new kind of 21st century addiction taking over normal, intelligent people and I've realised that I suffer from an extreme form of it. It's been sneaking up on me for some time and I guess the best name for it is download addiction.

While I know I need to take responsibility for my addiction its hard to know where to begin, although I'm pretty sure that I was on the right track when I mentioned in a previous post about throwing all of my electronic devices in the bin.

Determination is everything...

How do you know your life is being consumed by electronic products - answer, when you spend a good portion of an unexpected free night trying to sync everything together.

The effort involved in 'simplifying' my life is quite amusing, when really the easy answer would be to throw the whole lot in the bin.

I'm an Aussie...where I'm free to be who I want to be

I read....in fact I read a lot. Books, blogs, articles you name it and I read it, I always have. A former boss who once wrote a recommendation for me says I have 'a thirst for knowledge like no one else he has met.' It's probably one of the nicest things I've ever read about myself.

Putting words on the page

You know those funny moments which happen and make you pause and just wonder at the size and reach of the universe and its serendipitous little happenings.

I started writing the first book in my trilogy in February last year, two chapters in and then I got caught up with MBA study and a whole heap of other things and it went to the bottom of my list of things to do.

Changing my reality...

Happy New Year to all. Today I'm sitting here, the day before I go back to work and I'm considering all of the things I didn't get done over my holiday break. Yes I'm a little remorseful, but I'm also okay with it.

Okay, being okay with what I didn't get done is taking some work, but I'll get there. What I did do is read a lot, sleep a lot, spend time with family and generally relax. So I got a lot done in terms of mind and body rejuvenation and maybe that was more important than building my 'dream' business and restructuring my website.

My coming year

I don't plan to set resolutions for New Years because I already have my goals and they're not just set on the first day of the new year and forgotten within several weeks - a pattern I used to follow. My goals are ongoing all year round.

Sure I've sat down over the last few days and reviewed, revised and discarded anything which isn't relevant or no longer inspires me but there are no New Years resolutions so to speak for me for the coming year.
