This year I chose to have a solitary Christmas. Enough with all the hoo hah, the over indulging and what I see as the loss of meaning of what used to be a simple and straightforward family day. Cynical; you might say! It is not helped by the fact that I do not see my [...]

Jim Rohn was one of my early teachers on this wonderful journey we call life. Sadly he passed away recently and I thought it would be a good idea to post a short piece that he wrote about ‘Attitude’ and a few of his quotes. I believe that attitude is fundamental to our success, so [...]
