"Finding" yourself

You hear a lot about people taking time out to "find" themselves or to have some "me" time but do they really mean that or are they just wanting to step off the treadmill for a while?

I have always considered myself to be reasonably well educated and well travelled. Having worked in Abu Dhabi and lived in that completely different culture for nearly 14 years I also considered myself to be "cosmopolitan". Who was I kidding?

Yes I had done a fair bit and had taken myself way out of my comfort zone a few times but you cant rest on your laurels. I cant sit there and say because I did this once or twice I am now a complete and fully developed person. Thats not reality is it. Reality is that we continue to develop until the day we die. Thank goodness!!

There is so much more to life and we all want something different so I am not here to give you my view as what you should be doing - thats up to you. My point of this blog is to urge you never to think that you "know enough" or that you have "been there, done that, got the "T" shirt" .................etc. There is always something new, something interesting, something fantastic that is out there just to make your day that bit better.

You can learn to be a better Mum, Dad, colleague, friend - it doesn't matter the relationship personal development, i.e. the development of YOU can make you enjoy life so much more and because you are enjoying things more others will enjoy you more. If you are looking for success then look no further than yourself for it is you who will make a success of your life.

A bit soap boxy? Possibly! Its something that I feel quite passionate about these days and I feel frustrated when I hear negative and downbeat comments around me and I just wish I could make people see that they can improve their life - but only they can do it.

If you are unsure where to start then no better place than watching "The Secret" - you can do quite a bit of PD on The Secret official website for Free! (See link on right hand side) And that will just lead you into further development where and when you want.

Anyway thats my thoughts for today.

Inspirational and Motivational Conference in Prague

Well - this weekend is going to be something else!! Our Network Marketing Business is is holding the last of its "round the world" Kick-off events (training days) and Foundation Live Event this Saturday and Sunday (30th and 31st January 2010). This is the first Foundation Live (one day event) and the line up is fabulous. All this happening in the beautiful and historic city of Prague.

"Foundation Live is an inspiring 1 day motivational workshop with presentations on how to succeed in life, in relationships and in business.
For many, this event is the first time they meet the people they have learned from and worked with on their Beyond Freedom Evolution(tm).
Come and join the members of this community as we embark on this journey together…" (Beyond Freedom Evolution is the home study course that is putting me and life to rights!!)

One of the speakers is Scott Burrows. Scott has an incredible life story. A nationally ranked young athlete, he stepped into the passenger side of a friend’s car and awoke hours later in the emergency room, diagnosed a quadriplegic. Rather than accept his fate he channelled all the skills he had learnt as an athlete into his recuperation. You can see more about Scott on his website www.scottburrows.com

Scott will be joined by other inspirational speakers including our founder and leader Shane Krider.
