Congratulations, MG! It just occurs to me, tho, how hard you're working - that quadrupling (or more) of income will be very well deserved.

I'd be happy to help with facebook pages, I'm a bit of a facebook addict. Message me if you would like my help, my only Saturday plans are watching xfactor!

Hi all, excuse me while I delurk...
While we are waiting for Miss MG to make her report I have something to share.
I saw this thread recommended elsewhere (thanks Souk!) and started reading over the weekend. I loved all the ideas and positivity and group spirit but as I kept reading I thought- well this is not for me…I am not a go-getter, I am not going to start my own business, I am not a professional anything and probably never will be.:o
Now over the last few years I have been less Ziggles Express more Ziggles Brokendown and rusting but there has been an awakening over the last few months- not sure what I’m awakening to but life is better, I am beginning to live again and my spiritual life have gone forward in leaps and bounds.:)
Now to Mind maps…I thought nah not really for me but I learnt them while at school for studying etc. I know how to use them but they are not my study/planning method of choice.
Today I just read an article on BBC about sadness and they gave the definition of ‘anomie’ and the word that struck me the most was purpose. I lost my very underdeveloped sense of purpose years ago and now I need it back because I have just had that LBM that has brought to the fore the fact that I don’t have a purpose!
So guess what- Mind mapping. I AM MINDMAPPING! :j:jWho knew it would be so easy to get a POA in like 5 minutes on a scrap of paper! And the feeling of achievement and hope! I cannot describe it.:T
So thanks MG and the rest of you who are on the same journey- I can only imagine how many other lurkers are gaining benefits even just from lurking. So thank you and keep it up everyone!:T

Hi Ziggles. I fully understand where you are coming from. I too am a non professional and have no thoughts into starting a business, yet I feel a strange optimism about my life 'changing'.
Possibly it is from all the positivity and support this thread gives out. There certainly is an energy that these ladies have that is infectious, and I like it.
I made some positive decisions in the last couple of weeks that before I felt were unattainable but MG and her posse have shown that just one little step from the safe path could become a whole new and better way of living, instead of just being.

MG- :j:j:j Well done on your meeting with Mr Big. You deserve it.
Hi to everyone else, hope everybody is getting positive things in their lives.

hi mg - you need to get listed on "twellow" for twitter - equivalent to yellow pages... that is a good start... you also need to add some twitter apps so you can tweet automatically every time you post your blog to blogspot... you can do that automatically from face book too if you set up there... pm me if you are still stuck come Saturday

MG - I'm delighted for you. You sound so happy and ready for the work that needs to be put in.

I've not been able to follow the thread daily so missed out chunks - I'm not entirely sure what the matrix is, but if it's a group of people willing to support/promote your work then please count me in.

Hi Mg, I am so pleased for and for myself for that matter ( that no one walked into the room while I was read your posts because I had a big silly grin on face). I can actully picture you standing there giving your keynote speach. I will hopefully be around on Saturday to help with facebook and other ICT problems but I've never used Twitter sorry.

Souk - can you please let me know your prices. I really could do with your help! I wear black because it's safe and really don't like shopping. Not sure where you're based, but I'm happy to travel... though if it's London's Oxford Street, then I'll decline

Taka - can you please PM your web address, I adore the necklace you have on there.

Good luck to everyone on their journey(s). I'm not really following Mr Big's challenges as they don't fit for me right now. My work life balance needs working on, only because one of my businesses is more successful than expected, but I don't have the time now to do it justice as I've a contract that runs to March 2011 that will take up the time I would otherwise spend on the successful business - so that's having to wind down. My highest priority right now is my health. My aim is to get to Dec 2011 without medical intervention as that's a magical 5 year mark. If it doesn't pan out, and I do need treatment again - that's fine... but it would be nice to get to 5 years :rotfl:

Good luck to everyone and remember above all else... family, friends, health.

I hope the violin turns up today - It was sent first class, so shouldn't be too much longer!

Secondly, I have sent you an invite on linkedin.....not sure if you currently use it but you should certainly ressurect it as it will get you a link to a lot of people who won't be on twitter or facebook, and who could be useful one way or another.

Finally, this whole journey is bound to be "full on" for you MG - that will include lots of emotions, excitement, terror, frustration, days of amazing self belief, days of wondering "why me?" etc etc etc. So, my only other tip for the day would be to either learn some grounding techniques, or to re-visit some that you may have learned before, that only take you a minute or so to bring yourself into balance a few times a day, so that you don't suffer from the "extremes" of the emotional spectrum that this sort of challenge is bound to present you with.

Look after yourself. Enjoy
