Being persistent

What principles define how you live?

I’m going to list a number of principles that I do abide by, and that I also strive to achieve, however not always successfully.

  • Integrity
  • Live in the moment
  • Selflessness
  • Create your own path
  • Hold yourself to the highest conduct
  • Practice gratitude
  • Avoid negativity at all cost
  • Be generous
  • Give more than you take
  • Time is more valuable than money

As you can see, and if you know me, you will realise that there are some principles here that i exceed in, whilst others i really struggle with, but I’m nothing if not a trier, and persistence is something else that I have buckets of in reserve.

So have a peaceful Sunday, stay safe.

To be the best version

What was the hardest personal goal you’ve set for yourself?

That’s easy. It’s to be the best version of me I can possibly be. It’s what everyone I know and love deserves at the very least.

And I continually fail.

I’m not very good at being the best version of me.

I won’t give up though, you’ll just have to put up with the current version until the updated version comes along.

Sorry about the delay, it’s just so damn difficult at times, and when you think you are getting there something knocks you back.

That’s life, it’s a series of walls put in front of you that you have to climb. It’s just the walls are now getting more difficult to scale.

Peace to your lovely faces.

Difficult or Easier?

Your life without a computer: what does it look like?

As I have a hunger for knowledge I guess I’d be doing a lot more reading. I’d probably not be blogging, I’d be doing my daily journal. Beyond that as a kid of the 60s i guess I’d just be getting on with things. I don’t do the social media stuff, I’ve never had it so I’ll never miss it, so that would never be an issue for me.

And I believe that’s the difference. If you lived in an age when you didn’t have a computer, stepping back to that way of living wouldn’t be so much of a hardship. Yep there are things we all benefit from as a result of having computers, but we managed without them and we survived.

A child of the computer era would suffer purely as they know no other way. For them it would be a totally new way of life, but for us of a certain generation it would be “Ok, let’s get on with it”, we’ve done it before, we can do it again.

Times change, people change, life goes on.

Peace everyone
