*can relate with what you are saying here, because I thought the same too. But as of now, I know that I cannot be like what I was 17 years ago, because it would be meaningless for me. So, with the lessons I have have from life, I want to build it up as of where I am today.*

Course I agree with what you are saying here. Obviously I realise I can't be 17 again, though I've tried this year - so many concerts
But I want to recapture the power I had then before life attacked me LOL
Such dreams I had for myself and I don't want to discount the lessons I've learned but I do want to motivate myself, start my own business, push forward on my creative talents and stop wishing and start getting!

No focusing on what's happened that wasn't so good, that's done, no good crying over spilt milk! - just putting it behind me and moving on with passion!

Gimme some time before I can gather my thoughts in a sensible way and post here! Infact this is one discussion I was about to start myself, but delayed for lot of reasons.

Perhaps by tomorrow I will post what I have in my mind. It is already 11PM for me.

I am sure when people pool in, there will be a great lesson to be learned!

Tomorrow has become 5 days now! Well......

I am sorry I came in late, but I have my own excuses (hahahaha now that makes me a human, eh?)

All right, I did type in something here when we had a sudden power surge and my computer was rebooted and there goes everything I typed. I could have salvaged it since I am using Firefox, but ironically (accidentally), I clicked on start new session, rather than option restoring previous session.


Now, I also am not too sure if I can able to put down things as to make it understandable.

First a little about me, especially my life 2002 - 2006

I have had serious setbacks in my life in this period of time, painful losses and mis-judgments. But since November 2006, I have rebooted my life, and starting all over again. Still, it was not an easy transition, but since June last I am connected to my own soul in a big way and that is paying great dividends in life. Now, the full moon of June 1st was infact a time predicted to me more than 2 years ago, but I never knew it would be having so much a profound effect positively upon my life, soul, mind and being.

Going back to the subject of our discussion, Cat71, what has prevented me from my own true self is the fear. The fear of letting go, the fear of embracing the great life ahead. I know it is so weird to state this, about fear, but this is not an ordinary fear. I never had any problem with such fear, but looking back, I was afraid to take some decisions in life, that could have catapulted me to my dreams. I restricted action only because of some emotional tie ups. As a "crazy" optimist, the dreams were clear in my mind, but I never took action, or perhaps I was delaying actions, or perhaps I was merely reacting to things.

But now, when I have started to act, things are moving forward, FOR me, RIGHT HOW I want it to be!

So, what say?

*fear*
hmmm... yes, I can relate to that. I too have a clear image of the dreams - but the action has alluded me. I think though also for a long time I have relied on career moves, for instance, that have relied on other people's opinion/judgements, and have only recently found the confidence to say to myself, 'hang on I can take these skills I've spent years aquiring and make them work for me, and have my own business.' This realistaion has made me feel empowered and I'm now working very hard on getting the plan together to initiate the business towards the end of this year. Where I do fall down is I think I lack motivation, or is it fear? I get so far with my plans and projects and then get distracted by the next best thing, so how to I keep my focus. I really want this business this time, I'm fired up, I don;t want to look back in a year and see another unfinished project.
Great start - hope others chip in, let's keep it going, I am opening to sharing ideas and learning how to combat the fear!

Well, as I mentioned, there are some amazing things coming to me, and even though life has equipped me to take things head on, I still have a bit on delayed action going on. For instance, I have this business proposal, and I was required to submit a report and quote on last Friday, and I am submitting it only tomorrow. Now - I can agree that I had to get the facts and pricing etc right, but the past business failure and monetary losses are indeed making me to think twice (or more) when I start to work on this.

As you mentioned, I believe as others chip in, we might be able to get a better understanding of things.

I'm trying to analyse what is different for me now, then at previous times. Maybe that cold sweat that I wake up with in the middle of the night, that I'm never going to do anythig worth remembering in my life... I don't always lack motivation in January this year I had an idea for a book and started writing and finished it 3 weeks later (it's currently with a publisher awaiting decision), I write alot, but it doesn't always come that easy. The book that is currently in progress (a different one) I started in March and got half way and just stopped...? I keep meaning to go back to it, and feel it is a good storyline, but the moment of action just seems to evade me. It is frustrating
I do tend to vacillate as well, I have so many different creative ideas I never know which one to focus on. But my business, I really want that to work and am in planning stages, paperwork, business plan etc., how do I make sure I stay focused and make it a success - not bill gates success, just paying for itself and some bills would be good! (And a little extra for a rainy day wouldn't hurt )

So come on guys, chip in - how do you stay focused, motivated, positive? Have you turned your life around, if so how?
