Why Do You Blog?

Why do you blog or for that matter why do you do anything at all? An important question to ask oneself, after all most bloggers are investing a considerable amount of time and effort, not to mention funds, into their blog and so to this end, What do you get back? Seriously. As a reflection and a starting point for answering the questions you need to ask yourself this important question. To help the process, I though I would put together a few of the major reasons why I blog and why I invest so much time into writing articles every week, getting involved in community and investing into the blogosphere even though sometimes I would rather be scuba diving.

How To Bankroll Traveling The World And Living Your Dreams Without Being A Freeloading Little Rich Kid

“I guess if you got freeload money from your rich dad or your partner, then you can spend it as you did. 
But, hey if you are poor, not matter you do, you are still poor.” This was a comment on one of my recent posts “Three Months In The Life Of A Traveling Entrepreneur”. Bit presumptuous I thought, and just the smallest bit passive aggressive in that unsettling way that makes one think the author might possibly be sitting at his computer right now planning my future demise...I hope he or she at least has a decent cup of coffee with him or her.

Memories Of A Life Designers First Time

Splash. The bracing cold water hits my face and flows over my body as I dive out of the sun and slip into the cool water. I exhale and let myself drift slowly downwards to sit crossed legged on the bottom of the pool. I remain motionless, listening to the faint underwater hum of the filtering system and watch the bubbles float slowly upwards through dancing underwater sunbeams to break gently in an array of reflected light at the surface. It’s 2pm. Tuesday.

Your Blog Is Awesome and I Am A Shameless Whore

I have been having an awesome time in the last few days and have neglected to write a decent post of even borderline quality, and as it happens my reserves of upcoming posts are dwindling horribly.

My Friend, You And I Are Both Losers…But It’s Ok Don’t Cry

I lost today and at some point in your life, like the bad guys in a James Bond movie, you will lose too. This unfortunate ass beating, in addition to giving me a red behind, got me thinking about how to be a loser, and more importantly how to be a better loser when life requires it. (Life never really requires you to be a loser, but in some cases it is unavoidable, much like stampeding moose) So why do I bring this up and where do I have the guts and gall to call you a loser too? Read on to find out my inquisitive reader.

Structure Is Like A Strong Wind…Flow is Like A Frikin’ Hurricane So Unleash The Beast

In addition to chocolate covered marshmallow, I am a great believer in having structure in life, and systems in place that allow you to work and function effectively. Like a strong wind or a forced piggy back from a friend, structure will take you to where you have set your sights on the horizon. However, I am not a stickler for structures and from time to time, like custard filled balloons, I will quite happily throw them out a 6th Story window when an altogether more powerful animal comes knocking.
