On a Lighter Note

Following on from the Lighter Note page on the website I thought I would provide just a few more quotes here each month.

It is difficult to believe in God, not because He is far off, but because He is so near. Mark Rutherford

Not two out of a thousand books can arouse the feeling that not the author but things themselves are speaking to us. Hermann Hesse

The world exists, as I understand it, to teach the science of liberty, which begins with the liberty from fear. Ralph Waldo Emerson

The man who never alters his opinion is like standing water, and breeds reptiles of the mind. William Blake

Prose 'n Poetry Corner

Each month I will look through my notebooks and find a little bit of prose 'n poetry. Often written in a few minutes, so please don't expect Wordsworth, but hopefully these entries will provide a little interlude in your day. A chance to think and ponder, to daydream or to visualize, to perhaps see things in a different light.

Please see what you think and let me know if it is useful or not - highlights some valuable points but in a lighter vein . . .

Sometimes we need take the pill
the benefits in us for it to instill
we may prefer to do without
we may just need aid in life's fight
rather than rely purely upon our will

My first book is published and it feels real good
a long held ambition that itself has stood
as a beacon to draw me onto continuing writing
now on Amazon Kindle - that is so exciting

Yet another DVD
oh what a steal
will we enjoy what we see
is it fantasy or is it for real

Through we can reveal
and uncover some of life's secrets
then how does it really feel
like a meal, life needs all the right ingredients

You can talk yourself into it
it is not all that difficult
whether you move around or just sit
make a decision don't just get into a sulk

New Developments and Sister Websites

You may have noticed some red links on some of the web pages. Clicking through these links will offer you opportunities to have a say (AND a page on the website). These subjects will be expanding in the coming months.

This is your chance to have a real say and contribute your thoughts, your feelings for the benefit of all visitors. Get your thinking caps on and help another visitor along the way.

The following gives the first of the 'red links' I have created for you. Enjoy playing YOUR part in assisting others in this way

Feel free to offer your own thoughts and ideas - please just keep them focused on the subject of the page (there will be several more on different areas of topical interest in due course). Or see what others have shared and add comments to their input.

Have your say and your presence on the Internet - YOUR very own web page. This is your chance.

Don't be shy - we have been together some time now. Let me know what you would like to see on my websites and in this ezine. Contact me now.

I will continue to add focused content and expand the www.self-esteem-enhances-life.com website but I will also be building my other websites, too.

My second website is www.successful-decision-making.com This is all about making decisions and to help you in making the right decisions for you.

Find out how to make that important decision. Why not have a look now! All best, Martin

My third website is www.guide-to-managing-change.com which helps us all to handle change better and looks at the consequences of change and the challenges involved.

My fourth website is www.everyday-wisdom-revealed.com which provides a resource looking at wisdom, insights, everyday knowledge - much of which we already know - which may have passed under our radar. Pop along for a read!

The idea of the site is to have little snippets, an insight a page, easy to read, thought provoking but topical - something for everybody.

My aim with these ~~three~~ four websites is provide a one-stop information and inspiration center to help support and assist us all through life. And help us all get the most out of our lives.

Be a part of this exciting adventure - here and now! Start today and do not stop!

Main Article

Each month there will be an article, with fresh content, that goes into a subject in a little more detail. Perhaps give a different stance. Perhaps provide food for thought. Perhaps . . .

This month a different theme.

Engage with life

Do you engage with life?

What is your connection?

Loose and carefree? Serious and studious? Solid and real?

Or maybe there is no connection at all.

Things happen to you and that is the extent of it.

Things pass you by and do not move nor touch you.

You do something then you are off onto your next venture. It almost seems that the venture is the thing. Being involved and not the benefits or the outcome.

A little trap there perhaps.

We need to act with conviction. We need to be determined and disciplined. We need to give of ourselves.

We need to connect with life.

We need to connect with the life we have and the people and happenings within it.

We can try to live live in the clouds but it is here on 'the ground' that life really happens.

And if we are not a part of it what are we doing? What is our purpose?

Sure, we can sign up to a club or group and not attend. That is our choice.

Yes, we say we will do something and then not do it - for whatever reason.

We may start a training course and then take a sabbatical.

We may have varied responsibilities that we take a time out from.

But life - how do we abdicate our part in that? How do we remove ourselves from that?

And if we try what are we really telling the world and ourselves?

Perhaps we need to stand up and be counted.

We have done it before and we can do it now.

You know you can so get connected - today.

Hope you enjoyed it and found it beneficial. Be inspired to become more in 2012. Make the most of every moment you have. Martin

What do you think? Let me know by sending me your feedback using this link. February 2012 Contents

Ever wanted your own website or your own business, but always wondered how?

Have you ever wanted your own business? But no previous experience . . . Have you every wanted your own website? But no previous experience . . .

And you thought you could NOT afford it - but now you can! At only $29.99 a month you can do it.

Look at your own life and what you can do - and your website is in their somewhere - just waiting to get out.

Think you can, you can.

Think I don't know - then you could . . .

Yes, you can do this.
You can build your own website.
You can realize your own dreams.

You can fulfill your dreams.
