I’ve had another inspirational dream…
Last night I had a dream that I can’t remember but it woke me up and left me with a poem in my head. The last time this happened to me I blogged about it. You can read that post here.
This time my poem was short but, I feel it was one of those moments….
When someone that’s around you does something that astounds you, listen, look and learn, it soon will be your turn!
I don’t know about you but I do this all the time…I’ll read, see or hear someone say something that is really profound and I put it in my little brain bank and use it for inspiration.
One book that changed my life was “The Slight Edge” by Jeff Olson. I now use his philosophy in everything I do.
He says: THE SLIGHT EDGE IS EASY TO DO-and it is easy not to do. Now, I’m defining EASY here as simply “something you can do.” The Slight Edge philosophy is based on doing things that are easy-little disciplines, which, done consistently over time, add up to the biggest accomplishments. The problem is that all those things that are easy to do are just as easy not to do.
Why is something easy not to do? Because if you don’t do it, it won’t kill you today. But, that simple, seemingly insignificant error in judgment, compounded over time, will kill you, destroy you, ruin your chances for success, and demolish your dreams. You can count on it.
Somewhere along the way in your life, you became unwilling to take baby steps. You lost faith in the universal truth that the simple little disciplines done again and again over time would move the mightiest mountains.
There’s an old saying that says, A journey of a thousands miles always starts with a single step.
So if you are trying to lose weight and you say…just one piece of cake won’t kill me!
Or you know some little things you need to do to improve your business but….you’re gonna start tomorrow…think again!

Confessions of a Blogger.
At last my official blog website is actually finished. My intention of blogging for a living has become a reality.
Ok, what next?
The first thing I need to do is to go back over the archives and delete all my earlier muses.
In the early days, as is usual for blog virgins, my impression of a blog was something that no sane person would ever read or be interested in. So my first blogs were indulgent, grammatically terrible and some were even downright silly.
But as my hand hovers over the delete button I hesitate….wait a minute…this is like throwing out an old photograph album.
There’s the one about my dog Sadie, now gone, who was miraculously cured of cancer by a Spirit healer. And the time a had my cat trimmed and she looked like one of those nodding animals you put in the back window of your car.
Then there are the feelings I had when starting a new job or moving house.
I recorded my first days on Facebook and how cheeky people were, asking to be “my friend” when they didn’t even know me!
Of-course, I would hate for all you guys with discerning tastes to read these old blogs but I am definately not going to dispose of them. I’m going to print them up and stick them into a scrap book for posterity.
Maybe one day one of my grand daughters will find them and will read them to their children…how strange it will be to them…how old fashioned it will seem!
This time of Ipods, webcams and Twitter will be an archaic, bygone age to them!
I wish I had written more!
