if you have lost your inspiration….you have come to the right place. lost inspiration in my opinion is often a case of blurred vision or you complicating matters in your head. we have become masters at over-thinking the smallest of issues. this is a frequent problem for most people. instead of steam rolling over it with positive attitude we stop to over-analyze. but don’t fall into that trap. you will only become your own worst enemy. it is my understanding that most people walk around with this deep-rooted self pity. a bad case of feeling sorry for themselves. and we justify it with the most bizarre arguments. often we feel that the world owes us something. the truth of the matter is that the world owes you nothing. and the saying that goes: “life is unfair”….utter rubbish. it is not about fair or unfair. it is about taking responsibility for your own life and living it. stop outsourcing your responsibility. stop outsourcing your future. other people will not make it happen for you. other people will not invest so much into your future. and why should they. if you want it….whether time, money or sanity…you have to do it yourself. don’t outsource your inspiration either. find what works for you. hold onto that which makes your heart beat faster. keep a journal or write it down. find a dictaphone from the 1960’s if you have to. do something. but don’t just sit there waiting. don’t sit there criticizing and moaning. DIY…do it yourself.

new perspective
since the last time wrote on my blog, life has had a dramatic change….for the good. it is as if i have been given a new pair of eyes or spectacles to see the world differently. and the change has been exciting. i reckon life is to short to remain negative all the time. for many 2010 was a tough year. but i have decided that for 2011 my motto would be: “every challenge yields an opportunity”. i am writing new unrealistic goals. i am planning a round-the-world trip with my new partner in crime…aka MY WIFE. i have decided to take more holiday and spend less time wondering and worrying about crises that will never happen. i plan to see the lighter side of life and to smile more at strangers. i have to confess….my new partner in crime has had a dramatic effect on my life. nothing looks the same, nothing smells or tastes the same. perspective and attitude has changed. i have been challenged, inspired and encouraged. i realize that my life will never be the same again….and i love my new reality.
