Quality Time Away from My Online Business

Hi Everyone,

Hey, Look! (No one is in Class Today)

As some of you know, I had a difficult time last year and wasn't the best person to be around. I have decided to brush the past Away and move on with some quality time away from the internet.

Don't get me wrong I still spend many hours working online but mostly in the week hence I have some time to do the stuff that also needs doing in reality. So today I got up at 7 am as planned and made my way into town in my car. It was booked in for a full Valet.

I took the car to the garage and walked into town and had breakfast at Wetherspoon and then trotted back to pick up my car. It was supposed to take a half-hour but they spent a whole hour on it for some reason. It only cost me £25

The reason is, to be honest, I hadn't cleaned the car inside for two years. I simply can not believe what my car looks like now. Isn't it funny when you have your car cleaned it seems to be a pleasure to drive and feels like it's running better? I'm sure cars have personalities.

My car is rare and I have never seen one in three years on a UK road. It's a Suzuki Kizashi 2.4 Sport and there is a problem with having a rare car, the parts are hard to get and expensive. So there you have it I am getting out and about more, less time in the pubs and enjoying my life again.

I am feeling great of late and have a sense that I am going on the right track with my online stuff even though Kyle has pointed out a few negatives that need to be changed I am always happy to, listen.

I think having time away from the internet is essential for me for a while even though I am often talking about the web with friends that are curious about what I do at WA. It's hard to change them they seem to be trapped in time but I love my mates.

I feel great because I want to achieve more and that means shuffling my hours around to make my businesses work. I always think positive now and feel it's not long until something big happens in my life be it online or not that's the way I feel.

Time Goes So Fast when Yor Having Fun!

My reason for spending less time on a weekend on the web is because I took a long hard look in the mirror and thought my god even your beard is Grey now where's the time gone. That for me is the only thing about working online the time flies, however, I enjoy it so much that it's not at all a bad thing.

I have been for a drive this morning after my car was cleaned to the Malvern Hills before the rain hit and had a walk for an hour then drove back. I just wanted to go out in my car now it's like new lol isn't it funny. Anyway enough about my car even though I am proud.

My Thought for The Day!

In some ways, I wish I could speak to many members in person here at WA. There are some great mentors, admin and other members that really are helpful and that for me is what makes it work. If only I had taken notice of this two years ago about asking for help more.

Anyway, I just wanted to show you my beautiful cleaned car and wanted to know if you could make a name for it. If you can think of a name that would be great to leave a comment and I'll choose a name.

In Friendship

Stephen

I like the gray beard, Stephen! Mine is gray too! It signifies "wisdom", IMHO!

Good on you for taking a break!

It's wonderful that you are taking the time to get away from your laptop. One of the perks of our industry is the time to do exactly that, so take full advantage and enjoy life too!

A break is good, Stephen and recharges the batteries.

And yes, cars always run better after a thorough clean inside and out.

I tend to spend weekend time on domestic and local projects, with a bit of online activity too.

Your beard looks great, Stephen! Nice car. Great to hear things are positive.
