If you best is not good enough do better

It’s not enough that we do our best; sometimes we have to do what’s required. Sir Winston Churchill (1874 – 1965) How great is that quote? It’s something I touched on in my post Try is nothing, do or do not as well. I often wonder what our community fascination is with celebrating giving up....

Using the law of Inertia to achieve your goals

Using the law of Inertia to achieve your goals

So as I sit back in my swivelly chair the smell of coffee filling my nostrils, I’m too scared to reach across and pick the damn cup up. Each time I do I get 2 dozen bolts of pain shooting back and forth across my chest and head. Thursday evening I was elbowed in...

Lessons from Avatar – The Power of vision and integrity

Ok so if you havn’t already watched Avatar go, do it now!! Avatar was pretty much the most visually wow-inducing movie I’ve ever seen. There’s tons of lessons to be learnt from this movie but the ones I’m looking at today are vision and integrity. If critics like it, fine. I can’t say I won’t read...

Monetize Your Life – Blogging 2009 and beyond

At the end of a strange year even by my standards, I found myself proverbially flipping through the pages of this blog and looking back on all the posts of 2009. I forget sometimes how random the frothing rantings of a mad man can seem. I hope you guys found some entertainment and hopefully a...

What’s more important what’s Right or getting caught

What’s more important what’s Right or getting caught

I’m becoming more and more annoyed with the state of humanity. It seems the notion of right has completely dissappeared from the world. Everywhere I go I see people trying to get away with a shortcut here, a corner cut there. By small degrees the world’s gone to hell. Next thing you know they’ll...

Let’s make everyday New Year’s in 180 seconds a day

The shackled Muse makes mention how pointless New Year’s is in her post New year’s resolutions. While commenting on the post though it struck me how motivating those new year’s resolutions can be. Sure we all get a bit cock-eyed and proclaim from the stage of New Year our lovely intentions, much like Miss...

Failure Quotes – Celebrating my Failures of 2009

Heading into the end of the year I’m tempted to take stock of my failures in 2009 and start waving my finger at myself for all the things I’ve let slip during the year. All the failures punctuating the months from January to now. I’m reminded of all the doe-eyed dreams I had 12...

Why meditate and what is meditation?

December 16, 2009
By Michael Fletcher
Why meditate and what is meditation?

“We could say that meditation doesn’t have a reason or doesn’t have a purpose. In this respect it’s unlike almost all other things we do except perhaps making music and dancing. When we make music we don’t do it in order to reach a certain point, such as the end of the composition. If...
