Welcome to the forum and good luck in your journey, Raelana!

Welcome, Richard!

Quick entry Spent yesterday working on the website again, but now I have progressed. Finally getting a grasp on wordpress theme config. Looking forward to doing something else today. It's nice to be lsitening to 90's rock, eating healthy breakfast and thinking about the great things awaiting for me on this sunday morning.

So, there is another Mark Mason. I sometimes check out this one, the Late Night Internet Marketing.

Awesome!

What a shitty day. Wasted 4+ hours trying to configure a damn theme for my effing website. still no progress and a lot of things postponed because of that. Fuck WordPress.

it seems you had an awesome day. thanks for sharing!

Hey, I'm used to 30ºC winter. Anything below 20ºC is freezing, and anywhere below 10ºC is just not suitable for human life! --------------------------- Journaling in the evening for a change. I'm getting used to website building tools, and the learning curve is bigger than I thought it would be. I am interested in learning (it actually makes me want to study web coding), but I just don't have the time for that. I have two ideas for niche sites besides my own webpage, but the writing takes so long. I wish I had the funds to outsource it, but at the same time, I need to use this chance to improve my writing. I believe a book come to me asking to be written the other day. I felt really excited with the call, but I'm already sensing the Resistance knocking on my door. The thing is, the idea I have will require a lot of research and it will consume a lot of energy to get everything in tune with my own quality standard. Besides that, I'm not sure whether it will be read by anyone if I ever publish it, but I'm not very concerned about it. I'm not afraid of failure or rejection. I'm tough. Let's practice some more gratitude: it's not winter yet, and red leaves in japan are very beautiful. I can make my own cups of coffee, which is as enjoyable as drinking coffee itself. And of course, I'm in great health, which is all I need.

Hey Karma, I'd like to take that challenge, but I have a lot of things going on atm Good job on your first day!

This is more common than you'd think. Great to have you back.

i like the way the snow in your pics looks like sand. Makes me think you're in a sandy beach, thus I can forget about winter that is to come!

Welcome, khan! Good job with the bang-bang. It is not easy task!

Welcome, pagepuga! Nice to see you're taking action! I'll be following!

Awesome! And the TVNZ also did a great job on the subject. @Cam Adair you better get prepared, they are out for your head! (0:52)

The relapse dreams. They always come, sooner or later. How interesting. Good luck on your exam, Kiki!

Welcome, Robert! I like your profile picture. Badass!

Welcome Jani! Good luck on your journey! Count on us!

Welcome to the forum, Nancy! Come and unleash your potential! I'll be following!

Dear Lord, forgive me, for I have sinned. I ate at McDonalds today. McShake was especially delicious this time, caramel flavour. Last days I was busy writing resumes, cover letters and work history for part-time job here in Japan. Man, what a hassle... I'm on a 2-week streak for waking up before 7. Same streak for going for a walk early in the morning. I have sorted my to do list in order of importance and then urgency. It helps me keeping focus on where is needed. Speaking of focus, got used to measuring time with pomodoros. Feeling as productive as I have never felt before. Writing a good blog post is way harder than I think. Non writers are incapable of seeing the amount of work needed to write a good article. Making really small steps in respect to stock market investment. There is a lot of info out there on the process itself, let alone investment advice. On the downside, Japanese studies have been compromised. 3rd day straight that all I do is study kanji. I wonder how @JSmith is doing. Engineering must have got him really good this time. Workout was also in the same situation, but yesterday I stopped that losing streak. Let's be grateful today: I have warm clothes for this freezing autumm of 10ºC. I'm in great health, as far as I know. I have this awesome 2011 HP laptop which has everything I need on a computer.

@AlexTheGrape, GQ ambassador in NZ! To be honest, I don't have a finished version of a mission statement. Instead, I use my affirmations for it. In the 7 Habits, the mission statement is refered to in terms of your roles, but I'm still searching for my roles, as atm I find it hard to see (or name) roles for myself except my role as a husband. I have affirmations of purpose, affirmations of self-respect, affirmations of power and love, affirmations of serenity and confidence and affirmations of gratitude, which kind of covers my principles in one way of another. I'd like to shape them into a statement as soon as I can see my roles clearly.

Happy birthday! Hope you had a good one!

I like to think that every end is also a new beginning.

Nice post! On the subject, there is a good read on dealing with fears called Feel The Fear... And Do It Anyway, by Susan Jeffers. Great book!

The Picture of Dorian Gray: my favorite book of all times! I've read it maybe 4 times (currently reading it again). Lord Henry is the most intriguing and charming character ever created!

Left side of the brain is the logic side. Right side is the creative side. It is a quote from the 7 habits book!
