I recently went to see a motivational speaker who
had been through hell and back in her earlier years
- it made for a very interesting evening! I came up
with the following cartoon after hearing of the
obstacles she had overcome…..

I recommend you go and see good motivational speakers when
you can – you will come away inspired. and it’ll be a great help
when you have obstacles in your way.

Extracts from letters written to local councils:
1. It’s the dogs mess that I find hard to swallow.
2. I want some repairs done to my cooker as it has backfired and burnt my knob off.
3. I wish to complain that my father twisted his ankle very badly when he put his foot in the hole in his back passage.
4. Their 18 year old son is continually banging his balls against my fence.
5. I wish to report that tiles are missing from the outside toilet roof. I think it was bad wind the other day that blew them off.
6. My lavatory seat is cracked, where do I stand?
7. I am writing on behalf of my sink, which is coming away from the wall.
8. Will you please send someone to mend the garden path. My wife tripped and fell on it yesterday and now she is pregnant.

10. 50% of the walls are damp, 50% have crumbling plaster and 50% are just plain filthy.
11. I am still having problems with smoke in my new drawers.
12. The toilet is blocked and we cannot bath the children until it is cleared.
13. Will you please send a man to look at my water, it is a funny colour and not fit to drink.

16. The man next door has a large erection in the back garden, which is unsightly and dangerous.

18. I am a single woman living in a downstairs flat and would you please do something about the noise made by the man on top of me every night.
19. Please send a man with the right tool to finish the job and satisfy my wife.
20. I have had the clerk of works down on the floor six times but I still have no satisfaction.
21. This is to let you know that our lavatory seat is broken and we can’t get BBC2.
22. My bush is really overgrown round the front and my back passage has fungus growing in it.
23. He’s got this huge tool that vibrates the whole house and I just can’t take it any more.

Well I thought some were really funny!

Your mind’s power is only limited by the belief you’ve assigned to it.
Believe that you will attain what you aim for, see it clearly in your mind, and your subconscious will make sure you get it.
Treat your subconscious like a close friend. Love it. Respect it. Ask it things. Talk to it often with a positive tone. And never forget to thank it for always being there for you and for helping.
Picture yourself already reaping the fruits. And you will ultimately attain it.

I found this little cartoon character in my archives while
looking for something on ‘opportunities’. I must have just
been playing around at the time.

Here’s a few of the ‘opportunities’ quotes I was looking for:
To succeed, jump as quickly at opportunities as you do at conclusions.
Benjamin Franklin

Each generation goes further than the generation preceding it because it stands on the shoulders of that generation. You will have opportunities beyond anything we’ve ever known.
Ronald Reagan

To hell with circumstances; I create opportunities.
Bruce Lee

"I realized early on that success was tied to not giving up. Most people in this business gave up and went on to other things. If you simply didn’t give up, you would outlast the people who came in on the bus with you."

Motivation No-No’s…
7 Steps to Be Instantly Average
Who wants to be authentic or successful or outstanding or passionate or evolving when it’s so much easier to be average?

Just in case you struggle with lowering your sites and settling for less, here’s 7 tips to get you started down the path of mediocrity.

1. Worry About What Others Think
Live for the approval of others. Do what you think they want–or won’t notice. Check each of your decisions by the benchmark of group acceptance.

2. See the Finished Product
Be overwhelmed by success. See only the clean and shiny after-pictures instead of the small steps that made it possible.

3. Do Safe
Don’t take risks. Small, medium, or large. Instead, live safely in the cocoon of seeming comfort. If you’ve done it before, keep doing it. And only it.

4. Think ‘Forever’
Treat each opportunity–or life overall–as infinite. Put things off today because, hey, you can always do it tomorrow. Don’t rush. Don’t hustle. Wait. Wait until it feels just right. Then keep waiting.

5. Compare Down
Compare yourself with people who have less, give less, do less. This will make you instantly feel better. It will also keep the pressure off. As long as you’re not drowning, there’s no need to kick hard.

6. Keep It Fuzzy
Don’t mess with your fears. Keep them just how they are: fuzzy and heavy. Let that vague feeling hold you back and scare you. Let those unclear doubts make your stomach twist and legs freeze. Don’t reduce your fears to their facts. Keep ‘em fuzzy.

7. Make Failure Permanent
Always, always, always see failing as a final fall. If you mess up–game over. You can’t get back up, you can’t brush yourself off. You are done, and you look like a fool for trying.

Follow these simple tips and you too can be average! (Or do their opposites and start to live a better, more exciting life.)
