Quote: Take a few minutes today to gather your resources.

Take a few minutes today to gather your resources. Sit in perfect stillness. No talking. No fidgeting. No moving. No reading. No TV and no radio. Oh, and no cell phone or any other device.
Just sit and watch your breathing.
Relax your body from head to toe as you do so.
Feel the energy build.
Then go hunting.

Head full of too much. Where’s all the spare time gone?

Too many things I want to do. Seriously! Tonight, I want to write some insights on my “physics & maths blog”, and I want to write a spec for the software I’m writing. I also want to install some code testing continuous build modules, and additionally, I want to go to bed before midnight so


Can’t wait for the iPhone4!

Ok, I admit it. I’m extremely excited about the new iPhone 4.
Originally, I got my iPhone 3GS for a single “app”. I run my entire life from a web-based task service called Toodledo, and although clients exist for most phones, the iPhone is the only one that completely caches and syncs the entire task list

Growing a life worth living

I recently came across a comment in a wealth building community, it said “you can’t grow a company by cutting costs“. This makes sense. Making savings is a function of expenses. At best you could save everything you spend, but that isn’t going to increase your income, just the amount of money that you get


Thawing.

The great thaw has begun.
One mode of being gives way to another, and I’m very excited about it.
I finished working for my current employer in a few days time, and start working for a new outfit. But, the new job allows me to work from home, in the comfort of my garden room office. I


(Old) Friends will be (new) friends

Over the years I’ve had a lot of friends. I’ve lived in four different towns and in each acquired the best of friends, people with whom I would spend pretty most of my spare time with, discussing life the universe and everything or just playing or listening to music with.
Today though, I find myself in


Untangling my thoughts – kick starting this blog.

Aaarrgglle. That’s what goes through my head every time I think about my blog.
Actually, that’s not quite true, but I’ve been finding it tough getting some momentum behind it, even though I’ve been feeling for a long time that it’s really important for me to develop my written voice. I’ve been really frustrated at my inability
