Ramblings but important ones

I suppose my lack of blogs is due too many things. And thats the problem. Why are we, as we get older, finding things difficult to start and finish. Time?! As we get older time reduces, yet it is constant. As we get older we have more things to do but due to age and our perception, we cannot complete them fast enough. And then there is the list of them. Not only is the quality (how important you rate them) but the quantity of them increases. Basically our lives get busier and busier and yet our internal processing of these elements of life, slow us down. Where am I going with this? Not sure. Maybe I am searching for a way to manage my expectations called an ego, to ensure we massage the achievement we all deep down expect. Thus I have concluded that 3 is the magic number. Tomorrow I will explain (as only day 2 of the discovery and still in the field testing the theory). To tomorrow. Stardate 14 of the 9th month in the year 2 thousand and ten.

So tomorrow went by and proved that there is alot of work to be done with the Theory of Three. So what is the theory of three you ask. When compiling your list of things to do, do you write down the numerous tasks we all seem to face. And we write them down, dont achieve them and then we get depressed that we are not achieving meaningful lives. So my conclusion is only write down three. And only three.

So I wrote down three, but never achieved any of them. Damn, why? May be they were too broad and not realistic. But what is realistic. I havent a clue. And maybe thats the problem...I am not a realist. So how do you become a realist. But here is my point. If we are all realists wouldnt we as a race become dull and boring. Never dreaming the impossible , daring the improbable.

Therefore I have concluded I will continue to write the impossible task list, making an inspiring list, and celebrate when I achieve anything. Instead of being depressed about not achieving celebrate like hell when you do. Moral of the story...set the bar and go for it...and set the bar three times!

A new log....a new blog....another year. It has been awhile. It is ONE year on since my last blog.WOW but what has happened. Everything really. Since being made redundant a new leaf, chapter has begun. A journey that has taken me to places I thought never possible, physically and spiritually.
All I can say is that inner thoughts are now resuming. Thought for today....or since my last blog......enjoy the NOW! Tolle was onto to something. And he has struck a cord with a number of people....now there is even Tolle TV. WHAT? And hence my thought....its not heart disease or cancer or cars or smoking thats the killer 21st disease.Its the big "D" - depression. And what we must do is TEACH our kids how to be mentally smart. We have trouble teaching maths.....how the hell do we teach emotional intelligence?
