The DEMON of DOUBT!

June 29, 2009

The Demon of Doubt – he plagues us all. You’ve got to ZAP him as soon as he enters your mind.

The Deomn of Doubt

The Demon of Doubt

Here’s a few ‘doubt’ quotes to chew on…

“Any belief worth having must survive doubt” (Sorry forgot where I got this from!)

“Our doubts are traitors and make us lose the good we oft might win, by fearing to attempt” – William Shakespeare

“When you doubt your power, you give power to your doubt” (And this one!)

“What makes a river so restful to people is that it doesn’t have any doubt – it is sure to get where it is going, and it doesn’t want to go anywhere else.” – Hal Boyle

Happiness is to be found along the way!

June 25, 2009

“Happiness is to be found along the way, not at the end of the road, for then the journey is over and it is too late. Today, this hour, this minute is the day, the hour, the minute for each of us to sense the fact that life is good, with all of its trials and troubles, and perhaps more interesting because of them.”

Robert R. Updegraff
Author of “Be Thankful For Your Troubles”

Are you inspired by Sports Quotes?

June 24, 2009

Don’t you just love sports quotes? I know I do, quotes that inspire me, quotes to learn from. I’d write them down – even draw little cartoons to go with them. I’d look at them over and over again. I’d stick them on my wall, next to my computer screen and anywhere that I’d see them on a regular basis. Hopefully the following quotes on my new blog will inspire you and your friends. Share and enjoy them!

“11 Reasons Why You Will Never Succeed” By Gary Vurnum PART 11

June 22, 2009

REASON # 11 – You have something that you have
always wanted to do, but never got around to doing
it. And you know you never will.

I always wanted to do what I am doing now…I just didn’t
realise it.

Now I am fulfilling my dream, against all the odds. Many
people I know wish that they could do this…or do that…
but they always somehow find an excuse why they can’t.

Everybody has an interest, hobby, or skill that they could
happily get lost in for a few hours. If you think that you
may not…you are probably not thinking hard enough!

The key to finding out what it is you really love to do is
to ask yourself this question –

“What thing would you happily pay to be able to do?”

If “watch TV” is the answer…you’ll have to try harder!

Sometimes…you may not even realise that you are doing it.
For example…I have a good friend of mine who is a good
talker…he could strike up a conversation with a passer-by
within 2 seconds of meeting them. It’s a talent that comes
naturally to him.

To me…he’s an ideal

– Network marketer
– Salesman
– Real estate agent

Or any number of occupations where “relationshipping” is the
key to getting on and being successful.

If he worked in one of those fields…I am sure that he
would be a success. Instead…he just ‘treads water’ in a
job that pays him well but he gets nothing from it.

All he needs is a job where he gets paid to talk!

Look into how you might be able to make a living from your
talent. Someone, somewhere must make money doing something
similar to what you like to do.

Make sure that if you really want to do something, turn the
‘but’ into a ‘how’ and go for it!

Well, that’s the end of this special free

Never Succeed”.

“11 Reasons Why You Will Never Succeed” By Gary Vurnum PART 10

June 19, 2009

REASON # 10 – You worry what your family and
friends would think about you if you read or listened
to self-development material.

Im going to be one...a SUCCESS!

I'm going to be one...a SUCCESS!

I was always embarrassed about reading self-development
books on the train into work.

That was until I realised who was still going to be on the
same train in five years time, and I knew it wasn’t going to
be me!

I still get raised eyebrows from my family, but I will be
the one who is smiling when I achieve what I know that I can
achieve. Only this evening…my sister laughed out loud when
I told her that my eBook was called “The Science of Success”

But…at least I am doing what I want to do.

I take my personal development seriously.

Others may ridicule you…or laugh behind your back…but
they will be the jealous ones when you reach your dream…
and they are still stuck in never-never land!

So the moral of the story is…

Do what you want to do with your life…and not what others
say you should do.

Cartoon video for Everything Counts web site intro!

Cartoon movie for Everything Counts web site!

June 16, 2009

The above cartoon video was produced with Gary Ryan Blair of The Goals Guy. Gary emailed me the audio file and I  listened to this and jotted down ideas, created all the cartoons to suit the script and emailed them back to him. There was some going backwards and forwards before we got all the cartoons right. It was something new for me to work on and was very challenging. A very enjoyable project!

“11 Reasons Why You Will Never Succeed” By Gary Vurnum PART 9

June 15, 2009

REASON # 9 – You worry more about job security,
than how happy you are.

Enjoy your ONE life!

Enjoy your ONE life!

Job security is all in your mind.

How do you know that the company you work for will be around
in a year’s time, let alone ten year’s time? If you dread
waking up on a Monday morning…

– Find a different job, or
– Find a way to supplement your income so that you can leave
and do what you would really love to do.

I went against my wife and family and quit my job, despite
having no savings. I quit to do this. It’s what I want to do
with my life. Period.

Two years ago, I was counting the years to I retired at 60
with a full two-thirds pension. So what changed?

I changed…because the world won’t.

I decided that I couldn’t be unhappy for 40+ hours a week
…I decided that I wanted to see my family grow up…I
decided that I wanted to help my wife more with our
disabled son.

I decided to do what I wanted to do…and not what society
expects me to do. That’s why I wrote my eBook –
“The Science of Success”

I had a good career…with a decent salary. But I realised
that we are here to enjoy life…and not to struggle with
life. I have seen enough miserable people who work 70+
hours a week and have a fantastic salary…yet their kids
hardly know them.

It’s your life…and you only get one shot at it.

So you might as well enjoy it!

I hope that this part of the report has shown you
that there are more ways to be a success, other than what
can be measured in monetary terms.

ADULT STRESS TEST – Are you stressed out?

June 12, 2009

ADULT STRESS TEST

Are the patterns moving?
Or are they perfectly still??

Is this moving - Stress Test image!

Is this moving - Stress Test image!

What's happening here? Stress Test image No.2

What's happening here? Stress Test image No.2

The patterns are used to test the
level of stress a person can handle.

The slower the pictures move, the
better your ability of handling stress.

Alleged criminals that were tested
see them spinning around  madly.

However, senior citizens and kids
see them standing still.

None of these images are animated
– they are perfectly still.

I know it was nothing to do with motivational cartoons – but a friend emailed them to me this morning and I thought I’d share them with you! I haven’t a clue why this happens – any ideas?
