You Are A Coward. Stop It And Start Living

It’s a funny thing life, one day we are here and the next we are gone. Depending on your religious you may believe there is a ultimate point to life or not but in either case, what is the point of life if you are in it just to survive. Just to survive life seems to be rather a wasteful use of time and really rather pointless. If you have the gift of life then why spend 80 years justwandering through it trying to survive. if you have the gift of life it should not be wasted in this way. The gift of life should be used to have the greatest adventure you can, regardless of the fact that there may or may not be something waiting at the end of the tunnel.

How To Have The Journey Of Your Life – Your Destination, Roadmap and Vehicle For Achieving Your Dreams.

Eduard from Ideas With A Kick made this comment on one of the guest posts I wrote recently. “You know, I think a lot of people look at the lifestyle Jonny is living and think: “Lucky bastard!” But this interview points out very well the real ingredients for achieving a great lifestyle, which can be used by anyone: vision, plan, execution. It’s not luck. Pure gold man.” You can read the interview here, but Eduard has a knack of simplifying concepts down to their core components and so in this post I am going to elaborate on his ingredients for achieving a great lifestyle: Vision, Plan, Execution which I also refer to as The Destination, The Road Map and the Vehicle.

If you wish to stay clear of going insane and ending up talking to trees then you had better read this post.

The Glamorous Ferrari Driving Life Of A First Time Entrepreneur

I dug this little number out of the archive bin. It was a fledgling post I wrote back in ’07 for my very first blog “Naked Business” but as that blog is long gone now i’m stealing it. The old owner was a jackass so he won't care. For those that have been living in a cave for the last few weeks we are only a short time away from the SUCCESS book launch at the end of the month. If I am still waiting for your submission a good time for that would be...err now. Thanks to all those that have so far submitted and got involved, you guys are great.

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

It's guest post round up time kids. Now some astute readers may peer through this smokescreen I am putting up and see a blatant, and frankly abysmal excuse by yours truly for not writing a proper post....and you would be right. 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.
