Onwards, upwards & sidewards (37 days to go)
Ok, so I’m not sure if “sidewards” is actually a word, but I was trying to keep the theme flowing throughout the heading! How are we all doing today folks? Are we excited? Or are we reading this with our eyes half closed, trying to pass the time before we get to go home…where we will spend the next few hours watching mind-numbing tv?
“HELL NO” I year you say! Most excellent! Because, as a long time reader of this blog you know how lucky we are to be here today, to have another bash at life and another 24 hours in which we can do ANYTHING WE WANT! Now is that exciting or what?
So, no matter what time of the day or night you are reading this, be grateful. Be grateful that you have the ability to see this blog, that you have access to the amazing world of the internet.
You now have some decisions to make:
- What I am going to do with the next 24 hours?
- Who am I going to spend my time with?
- What am I going to contribute to?
- How I am going to feel for these next 24 hours?
Take a moment and find a pen and piece of paper and you write these 4 questions down, then spend the next 5 minutes, answering them.Be honest with yourself. How did you answer these questions? Did you answer with the normal everyday stuff, like “go to work”, feel “depressed” or “angry”. My guess is that you didn’t. I think you wrote about the things and people you feel passionate about. The things that make you feel good and empowered. Happy and successful.
As strange as it may seem, you actually ask yourself these questions everyday.
And you answer them…
- You choose what you are going to do with your time.
- You choose who you spend your time with.
- You choose what’s important to you and what you want to contribute to.
- You choose exactly how you are going to feel, every moment of every day.
It may be a bit hard to swallow, but it’s the truth. We are all responsible for what happens in our lives. I’m not saying everything is your faults, but at the end of the day - you have the choice as to how you want to handle a situation, challenge or success.
So if your written answers to those 4 questions, aren’t what you normally do every day - then maybe it’s time to take some serious action and change the things you do everyday, so you start living the life you want. It’s your choice and I know there’s lots of support for you out there.
So give it a go…

Oh Seriously, some people have nothing better to do than put others down. Don’t take notice of them Ryan, you are doing a great job. I think you could do some life coaching seminars in the future??
