Gandhi on Silence

In the attitude of silence the soul finds the path in a clearer light, and what is elusive and deceptive resolves itself into crystal clearness. Our life is a long and arduous quest after Truth.

Mahatma Gandhi
Indian ascetic & nationalist leader (1869 - 1948)

Attractively Feisty, yet Intimately Playful

For over a year now, I’ve had a vision of my ideal partner in life. She’d have to be attractively feisty, yet intimately playful in her approach to life. This is a woman who would bring creativity into every given moment, alluring a sense of culture and passion to everything we put into form together.

Third Transaction Completed With A Noughts and Crosses Deul!

This evening at Kavit Haria’s ‘Hidden Secrets of Music Success’ seminar held at London School of Economics, I just completed my 3rd transaction in the 1p to £10 Million project.

Roopal Shah had pledged the 3rd transaction where she would give me 4p in return for a match of Connect 4.

As she was unable to find her Travel Connect 4 game (Roopal says she left it at her mum’s place), we swapped it for a ‘Best Out of 3 Noughts and Crosses’ match.

The first match was a draw. The second match was a draw. I won the third match. Neh neh ne-neh neh….  About time anyway, as Roopal always beats me at Connect 4.
Thank you Roops - I am now in possession of 8p, and getting closer to my £10 Million goal.

Next up - to double the 8p, I gotta write a quote for Afni Shah that’ll cheer her up whenever things get her “stressed out and down”.

The Gift of Total Responsibility

:: by Dr Joe Vitale ::
Two years ago, I heard about a therapist in Hawaii who cured a complete ward of criminally insane patients–without ever seeing any of them. The psychologist would study an inmate’s chart and then look within himself to see how he created that person’s illness. As he improved himself, the patient improved.

Need For Acceptance: The Force Behind Decisions

It is apparent, that from the moment I was born into this world, to this moment right here right now, the single most powerful force behind any decision I have ever made has risen from my need for acceptance.

Non Doing

::Article by Dr. Robert Anthony::

One of the mistaken certainties or misconceptions most people operate under is that you get what you want in life by what you DO, or through the actions you take. Most people believe that the DOING or action part is what makes things happen. However, this causes you to create in reverse.

Let me explain…

All life is bound together by mutual support and interdependence

Within an individualistic self-sufficient independent reality that we are all striving towards, we realise that there’s actually very little we can do alone without the influence of another being.
