Ooh Cheri I love a good quote. The Daily Motivator usually gets me up and at 'em too. Recently read Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert, whick launched a yearning for some Deepak.

I do suffer from the 'Subscribe to this thread' problem too, see look I'm just about to do it again...

A bit of Deepak eh? Have you read Ageless Body - Timeless Mind? really enjoyed that.

As for 'subscribe to this thread' , its not just me then!

On a serious note for mo, I promise you it won't last, I can never be serious for longer than 5 minutes. (clears throat) ...

I wrote loads of stuff today for my website, and just when I was about to finish I must have hit the 'please destroy all of this and send it into the eternal ^%**ing ether as I didnt want it after all' button :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

I'm telling you, I was as mad as wee mad John of Mad Island in the McMad islands....grrrrr

If I was paranoid I might think my computer has this arbitrary facility whereby it alone decides if what I write is a load of tosh then casually fires it into the great unknown with a laugh not dissimilar to the one at the end of 'Thrilller' ...

I'm a writer, its bad enough convincing myself that someone else will want to read my stuff without this ancient tribute to personal computerness deciding my fate!

But I've calmed down now after a very cold bottle of Becks and a lie down. Just not much point doing a TADA! list as it would be very short, something along these lines perhaps...

Got up
Had a coffee
Scratched my chin
Fed the cats
Had another coffee
Jump started PC
Wrote for 4 hours
PC Quality Control dept intervenes and 'loses' todays work
I cry
The end

Whoa...thats exactly what did happen! how uncanny....

I'm off for another lie down and an even colder beer and Top Gear :cool:

Probably a bit latenow but couldn't you just have hit "undo"? Sorry, that is probably the most annoying thing I could have said

*hands Aspiring Writer another beer and backs away slowly *

Aspiring Writer is it based on 'Think and Grow Rich", by Napoleon Hill. He mentions the Secret a lot, but says that it works better if you have to work it out for yourself? I love that book. I really should be a millionaire by now, considering I've read 'Think and Grow Rich" and "The Secret" three times. Mmmmmmm something not quite right here.

I also love Scotland, especially the East coast from North Berwick to South Queensferry, it takes in some truly magnificent beaches, and you are right near Edinburgh. Fortunately, this is the region I live in. Strangely enough when I was young I used to have this recurrent dream of walking down a hill and looking at a magnificent bridge. I lived in Essex and had never seen the Forth Road Bridge. Years later I marry a Scotsman and I live on a hill overlooking that very same bridge that I dreamed of, even the finer details are the same.

All the best cherisong, a landrover doesn't sound like an impossible dream x.[/QUOTE]

Hello, no it isnt Napolean Hill, good guess though. I'm afraid owing to the value of the prize at stake I'm going to be very strict with the answer, I hope you can understand.

Re Essex to Scotland, nice move amigo! and uncanny, dreaming about the bridge then living so close to it. I lived in Brentwood a few years back, and since then have thought I will end up living in Scotland. OK, if I'm honest, I can picture my dream house and its location down to the layout of my study/office!

I will get there.I will...

Wow you busy lot.

Ok, I want to share with you a poem that I found some years ago, Rabindranath Tagore is the poet. I came across this when I was at my lowest. It struck a chord and so I printed it off and stuck it onto my fridge (I dont do the diet stuff just the motivational stuff)

]Dungeon
He whom I enclose with my name is weeping in this dungeon.
I am ever busy building this wall all around; and as this wall goes up int
the sky day by day I lose sight of my true being in its dark shadow.
I take pride in this great wall, and I plaster it with dust and sand
lest a least hole should be left in this name; and for all the care I take I lose sight of my true being.

I just wanted to share because I love that poem.

Hi cherisong,

I must look them up

I also believe that we know our destinies and some of us strive to make them work subconsciously. I always knew that I would, eventually,live in the country and I grew up in a very industrial town. I didn't consciously work towards a move to the country but it happened naturally.

All the best cherisong, a landrover doesn't sound like an impossible dream xThank you. Nothing is impossible .

You might just be heading to your first million a little slower than you want to.

OH NO more books to add to my list I must check this one out. Is it now a film with Julia Roberts. I also have the daily motivator as a bookmark and try to start each day with a quick peek.

I do suffer from the 'Subscribe to this thread' problem too, see look I'm just about to do it again...

I cant help being inspired by somebody's reply in a diary and then I go and root them out to find out more, end up subscribing and hey ho. I am limiting myself now though.:rotfl:
