When is enough, enough?

Studies have found no significant increase in happiness during a period in which a person moves from a lower income to a higher income, in fact an interesting research was done between the world's richest and some of the world’s poorest in which some on the Forbes 400 “richest” list were given a survey and their satisfaction was rated at almost exactly the same level as did the people of Masai of Kenya and Intuit people of Northern Greenland, who had no access to electricity or

Back again, older, wiser and ready to make an online presence.soooo excited!

From Pandemic to Plandemic....Going Online is a Must! There is always opportunity in a crisis, one must just be open...open to change, open to a challenge, open to opportunity, open that door and walk through with chin-up, a sparkle in the eyes and exuding confidence! Who feels the same and will be joining me in making 2021 the "bestest" ever!?

The Honey Badger

A few weeks ago we went to a game farm for a chilled weekend in the bush. Out of the city and into the bush is a welcome escape from the rat race and it is literally an hour's drive out of the city.When the sun sets, the African bush-veld comes alive with sounds and the heavens light up with the Southern Hemisphere's bright stars. Nothing beats an African Sunset!We walked with rehabilitated cheetah, we experienced the roar of a male lion from a distance 10 feet, we saw rhino up close and the mi

That Tasteless Sandwich!

Blogging for the sake of having something to put up as a post...To me that is like eating when you are not hungry...eating, because the time indicates that you should be having that sandwich...the sandwich that you made quickly this morning without really thinking about and using ingredients that didn't really compliment each other...now you just going through the motions...forcing yourself to chew and swallow, chew and...oh yugh!!Here are a few tips that work for me...(It helps a lot that I ac

Watch me!

Tenacity is the quality displayed by someone who just won't quit — who keeps trying until they reach their goal...persisting until inevitably achieving successTenacity is setting yourself a goal so BIG, that you cannot possibly achieve it...then growing into the person that CAN!Remember:Nothing in the world can take the place of Determination! Falling down is part of life, getting up is Living!You cannot live a Positive life with a Negative mind! Show some GRIT:G: Growth of your mindset.R

Working Towards A Four Hour Week!

I learned something new today: “You don’t want a million dollars, you want the lifestyle you think having a million dollars will get you.”That made me realise that if I put off my dreams, waiting for the day when I have the means I think I need, those dreams might never materialise. What's more, maybe I can accomplish most of my dreams without the millions I supposedly need.Some people, myself included, get so absorbed in chasing money, that we end up neglecting ourselves-men

Pyramid Of Needs.

In 1943 Abraham Maslow produced a paper called "A Theory of Human Motivation." It is commonly known as Maslow's Heirachy of Needs... it is a motivational theory in psychology that argues that, while people aim to meet basic needs, they seek to meet successively higher needs in the form of a pyramid.So, does it still apply nowadays? I think that most of you will agree with the additional two tiers that I have added on here, if one is to be more productive on WA!! ;-)What do you think? Can you l

Overcoming Obstacles!

"Each man kills the thing that he loves." -Oscar Wilde.I believe that this is true for a lot of us. The mere possibility of achieving what we want, fills the soul of the ordinary person with so much guilt, that we end up denying what we deserve because we look around at all those who have failed to get what they want and feel that we do not deserve what we want either!We forget all the obstacles we overcame, all the suffering we endured, all the things that we had to give up on, the late nights

Determination!

determination: the ability to continue trying to do something, even though it is very difficult!I know a lot of people that fail to live up to "expectations" even though they have a God-given gift or talent, because they lack determination, the unwillingness to sacrifice in order to achieve! It is easy to give up on a dream and blame it on the economy, or the government, or the competition, or lack of time....but the one who succeeds also faces the same challenges and maybe more! It's sad see

Pandora's Box of Troubles.

The Olympic Games is halfway through, and the Olympic Torch symbolises Fire which the Titan Prometheus, stole from the Olympian Gods and gave it to mankind...which made me think of the revenge it invoked from Jupiter upon mankind...PandoraJupiter looked down upon the earth, and he saw the fires burning, and the people living in houses, and the flocks feeding on the hills, and the grain ripening in the fields, and this made him very angry. Up until then, mankind had not had much worries, but thi
