NEWS AND MUSE
Hello, it’s Sunday 25th November 2007 in Sydney Australia. We had an election last night and, for the first time in this country’s history all levels of government, State and federal, are controlled by the Labor Party. This means we have a socialist government running every aspect of political life for the next three years.
Whether it’s a good or bad thing to have only one side of politics in charge is debatable. I suppose we can only wait and see. It will be interesting in that we currently have our economy at the strongest and most stable in the country’s history and unemployment is at it’s lowest ebb in thirty years. Interesting times ahead, I think.
I finally have the DVD on The Philosophy of Learning ready for release. By the time you receive this it will be on the site. Close behind will be the second in the series. It was impossible to share all the information on this vital subject with one DVD. In the New Year I will release the third in the series.
I often say that you cannot master anything unless you fully understand the philosophic principles behind the subject. The Philosophy of Learning series will give you the answer to the eternal question, HOWCANI? You will know how to comprehend and rapidly apply any skill, knowledge or ability you are confronted with.
Oh, more news on upcoming releases. I have almost finished an e-book on the HOWCANI approach. I’m thinking of calling it The HOWCANI Answer Book for all the questions you didn’t ask in life. Such questions as, “HowCanI make friends?” “HowCanI be self disciplined?” “HowCanI coach successfully?” “HowCanI resolve conflicts?” And many more.
You will be able to download this treasure trove of tips, strategies and secrets on life for less than $10. Why so cheap?
I simply want to share what I have spent a lifetime learning and researching. Many great minds have put out many great messages for us to take on board and live fuller, more positive lives. I have simply put what I have learnt down in an easy to understand format that will enable you to apply the HOWCANI approach to life and living. It works. For under $10 you will see for yourself. A small investment for a better, more informed life.
Look for that before Christmas. I’m working very hard to have it ready.
Now, a quote for you.
“If you look at what you have in life, you’ll always have more.
If you look at what you don’t have in life, you’ll never have enough.”
Oprah Winfrey
I find that very interesting. To me she is saying you get what you focus on. That is so true. Let me ask you, how often do you “count your blessings?”
I was speaking with a guy I know and noticed that one eye was very red and angry looking. Being the inquisitive soul that I am I asked what was wrong. He told me he had just had an operation to remove some debris from around the retina. The procedure involved the insertion of a hollow needle into his eye and sucking out what was there.
He had to have the operation under local anaesthetic, because he had to keep his eye open. It took me back to my childhood where I had a lighted match-head lodged in my eyeball and had to endure a number of operations under similar circumstances.
For six months I had to wear an eye patch and could not try to look through the eye. I clearly recall the day the doctors told me I could throw away the eye patch and could open my eye again and see. The sense of relief and gratitude I felt has to be experienced to be described.
I had no lasting problem with the eye but, to this day, I wear sunglasses on even the dullest. I really appreciate the gift of sight and this taught me to be grateful for everything I have, my health, my work, the friends I love, in fact all the positives I have in my life.
Be grateful for what you have and don’t envy other’s good fortune, celebrate it. They say, what goes round comes around.
I believe that.
Live well,
Ollie Lind
