I’ve done it again…two posts in one day…it’s because I’m on a roll and expecting a lot of people to be checking my blog…hahahahaha!

Things like: organising a home-move, whilst negotiating with estate agentsContinueContinue reading “JDS Insights: February 2011”

Time definitely flies when you’re having fun. We’re now almost a quarter of the way through the year…and I haven’t even picked my themes for this year and reviewed last year!

Here’s March.* Mar 1: Creativity is always the truth as a new generation sees it. Mar 2: There are always just the right number of hours in a day. Mar 3: You don’t ‘have to’ do anything. You chose to. Mar 4: All creativity expresses truth. Mar 5: Choose and the world chooses with you.ContinueContinue reading “JDS Insights: March 2010”

Here’s a summary of February.* Feb 1: If my life is a mess and it’s down to others I am a victim. If my life is a mess and it’s down to me I am powerful. Feb 2: Real life is real mess. Feb 3: In the cracks of the mundane hides the profound. FebContinueContinue reading “JDS Insights: February 2010”
