Australia day

On this Australia day, let’s remember that we are a nation girt by sea. That beaches, BBQ’s, Body boarding, bare boobs, bums, beer & bongs are just some of the things we love. But let’s not forget the boat people from the indigenous that arrived by dugout canoe 40000 years ago, to the Dutch explorers that landed in Perth 400 years ago, to the British colonists & convicts 200 years ago, to the Italians & Greeks 60 years ago, to the boat people who seek refuge today. But most of all if this rain keeps up, we’ll all be leaving the same way!

2012

Too many devices, too many things, too many options, too many settings, too many passwords, too many cords, too many adapters, too many acquaintances, too many non rewarding loyalty programs, too many cards, too many accounts, too many debts, too many bills, too many rules, too many cheap things that fall apart, to many inconsiderate people.

2012 is the year to declutter, simplify, rid baggage, sell excess, seek value, ditch people, businesses & activities that suck you dry, Give back to those that enhance your life

Eat less, move more

There is too much middle ground. No more like. If you only like it, it’s not good enough. Let’s hate hate & love love

2012 is a new beginning not the end

Expect & demand more of the good things from people. Compassion, empathy, ethics, honesty, integrity. Educate those that don’t offer it, abandon those that don’t listen

I’m going to be more prosperous in 2012 because i will observe more & listen more & i will be focused on giving value, simplicity & saving people’s time in an open friendly & fun atmosphere
