Not enough MONEY..business, change, success, training, mind?
Money is a great power for getting what you want in the world, but not in every case.
All the money in the world will not give you the energy and enthusiasm to reach your goal.
They are fundamental factors, and money is one of the means of getting there more quickly.
Sometimes when we have no money, the struggle to achieve and carry out an aim hardens the character, intensifies the concentration, and gives a spurt to your initiative.
If you look at the lives of a few successful businesspersons, inventors, artists, scientists, how many of them were held back because of a lack of money?
If you are not too tied down with commitments to family responsibilities, or too old to care, do not let money considerations stop you from carrying out your aim.
There are many ways for getting on if you have determination and a strong ambition.
Borrowing, earning money on the side, studying for a higher paid position, finding work helping in the community, asking friends who may be able to help in getting openings for you, these are several ways that you can promote your business or interests.
If you need capital to start your business, then start small and gradually enlarge as you grow bigger. Or else work your way up in someone else’s business until you become a valuable part of the company.
If you need education, then colleges can offer all kinds of training and opportunities for the ambitious man or woman.
If you really want to succeed, you will not let the lack of money stop you.
Finally keep in mind that the best things in life cannot be obtained at all by money alone.
Mind, change, success, training, business, money...

Are you stuck in a Rut...Aims,Change, Goals, Relationships, Mind?
Most of us, as we travel through life have acquired set beliefs and ideas about ourselves, about our jobs, our religion, and perhaps our morals.
When we acquire a set belief about something, this is normally when our mental development has stopped. Our minds become closed to any new ideas on the subject and we refuse to be changed or modified.
Although we may regard ourselves as being open minded, most of us can become fixed and narrow minded in our views. Unconsciously we have closed the doors of reason.
When a growth is so gradual that we do not realise it is happening, this form of a self-arrested development is the most difficult to give up.
When we are accused of, being narrow minded we strenuously deny it and object to the implications that we are not open minded.
Examples of this can be the salesperson who is fixated on having to achieve certain levels of sales. The worker who would have no desire to go any further in his job, because he feels secure. The person that runs a factory is content to go on running his factory exactly the same way as he has always run it.
Another example used to be the housewife who marries and places herself at a expected vocational level and remains throughout her life a fixated house wife. Luckily lots of women have been liberated from this role and tries to manage and juggle careers and children. I feel this statement is certainly a comment for future debate!
There are many other examples of people stuck in ruts, unhappy in their job, relationship and situations, but are too afraid to move on.
What is important is your attitude towards your work, and the effect it has on your entire mental life.
This is why it is so important to find your aim or goal in life. The problem is that it is usually this aim that is so difficult to establish and these difficulties will be covered next time.

The Mind...Change, Interest,Self, Success, Developement?
As well as writing these blogs I am in the process of creating a new website all about changing your life. You will be able to find ideas on spiritual matters and on ways to benefit materially. Until my partner Sarah and I get to the point where the site can be accessed I am going to start writing an introduction to one of the subjects that I believe can seriously help you on your life path. It is all about the mind.I am going to take you on a new adventure….the exploration of your mind and a hint of how your mind works….what do you think of that?
If you have interest, enthusiasm, and open-mindedness then this could be an eventful journey
It could take a while but I will try to write something every day, unless away. Then I will inform whoever happens upon my blog.
I will also continue with my other stuff, but I am sure it will all be interesting reading.
The importance of mental efficiency can give the person a great advantage over others.
When we think about it, every achievement, a fine poem, a great piece of art, a prosperous business or a remunerative invention all have their first origins in the mind.
So develop the mind and anything is possible. It is the key to every kind of success.
What do you want is really the great question of life?
Hidden within your wants is the main motive-power for your self-development.
You will gain far more than the supply of these special wants.
As you meet these wants, others will develop and so you will begin building higher and higher.
Ask yourself then what do you want?
What you want most of all will determine your whole career. It will colour your daily feelings, thoughts and actions.
You will begin to view everyone in the light of the effect they will have on this want of yours. It will fertilize your thinking and stimulate new ideas and self-confidence will develop. All your activities will be directed to that certain goal and it will shape your life’s achievements.
WHAT YOU WANT BADLY YOU WILL GO AFTER… .....Change, Developement, Interest,
Mind training, Self, Success, Wants?

Joy and demons...Change,God, Life, Poetry, Fear,Belief?
Its not too late but I have been meaning to write a new blog for a while now, but time has gotten in the way again.I have just come across this piece I wrote this year but it is perhaps a bit heavy. Maybe I was feeling sorry for myself, because my mum had just passed over and I began to question what the "hell" was life all about!
I am going to publish it anyway....
So they say. Think about every moment too hard and life becomes bound by strings that are invisible and we wonder why our life never changes.
Caught up in the world wind of a hurricane, moving us forward to near oblivion, we attempt to find a route for our redemption.
We look for a leader, a light to shine in the darkness, but all that we find is dust where once had been life.
We strain to music played by a beating drum, only we do not understand its tune.
We wait to see who is following us and we use the excuse that there is always someone else to blame.
We smother ourselves with hints of remorse when things go wrong but we never accept that maybe the fault lies with ourselves.
Why we are in the situation is the question we ask ourselves often. We always find someone else to blame and rarely look at the reasons why.
We live in fear and we believe that god will forgive us anything.
The earth revolves in a never-ending circle and nights grow dim before dawn breaks. We wake up only admitting that perhaps we had a bad dream and the insights and intuition that tried in the darkness to trigger some answers to our questions is put to one side as we get on with the day.
God is waiting and he will forgive me is the hopeful belief that runs through our heads as people destroy the earth and use its resources to further existence on this planet.
Do not worry, God is not vengeful, he will not harm us.
Little do we realise that god is only watching, smiling and with a knowing look turns his back.
The people will know when they look at their shadows; the realisation will dawn when the mirror of time strikes the hour of their awakening.
They will become aware like a bolt of thunder strikes its target and suddenly all will be clear but then it will be too late for them to turn back, because as the cycle of life revolves the karmic links that they have created will strike again at their door.
They will eventually understand that they will have to relive the experience again and travel down the pathway of life hoping to find their selves at a new doorway of time where they can undo the threads that they have built on the web of human existence.
Acceptance, Change, God, Life, Poetry, Fear, Belief?
