Now that I'm not going to be focusing on researching and investigating news and information, as I was over the past few months, I'll have a lot more time up my sleeve. What am I going to do with that time?
Well, I think moving forward in creating a positive reality will be a good start. I'll be reading more positive material, helping me build up a better image of my life, and helping me create a better life. I want more money, so I'll be creating opportunities for myself to bring more money to me. Why do I want more money? So that I have more options available to me.

Most of the western world knows that the Chinese government are oppressive, and that the internet, for example, is severely censored. Large numbers of key words, like democracy and freedom, are banned on the Chinese internet network, so whenever a person within China tries to access a website with any of the banned keywords in them, they get the 'usual' page can not be displayed error. Most Chinese people think that the internet is full of websites that just don't work, and they remain blissfully ignorant.

The other day I downloaded an e-book I found that's called The Science Of Getting Rich. I just started reading it today, and I found this statement:
YOU CANNOT RETAIN A TRUE AND CLEAR VISION OF WEALTH if you are constantly turning your attention to opposing pictures, whether they be external or imaginary.
Do not tell of your past troubles of a financial nature, if you have had them. Do not think of them at all. Do not tell of the poverty of your parents or the hardships of your early life. To do any of these things is to mentally class yourself with the poor for the time being, and it will certainly check the movement of things in your direction. Put poverty and all things that pertain to poverty completely behind you.

Is it the same in your part of the world, where drive-through fast food isn't fast at all? Over here, drive-through is VERY annoying. Slow? You wouldn't believe how slow!
On a number of occasions I've gone to McDonalds or KFC and parked in the carpark. As I climb out of the car and walk to the door to go inside, I see the car parked in the drive-through, waiting for their order. I've gone inside, waited in line while choosing my order, placed my order, paid for my order, waited for my order, gone back outside to the car - and the same car is sitting in the drive-through, in the same spot as when I went in.

I spoke to Amanda last night, a friend of mine in Australia who is currently a life coach. The conversation was quite enlightening for me, as it pointed out to me how focused she was on the intricacies of business, rather than on helping people. It was her opinion that I should not consider being a life coach without adequate qualifications. While I can understand her point of view, I felt that she was doing her best to hamper me, rather than to help me. Her heart was in the right place, wanting me to do what she considered to be the right thing to do, but if I followed her advice, I'd be sitting here doing nothing about moving forward until I was in a position to do the course while living in Australia. I can't wait that long! I. Must. Move. Forward. NOW!

There's a lot of websites out there that offer you free hosting for your photos, but unfortunately, most of them don't offer a lot of space. For example, my new-ish photo album website, available from the link on the right, only allows me to store 30 Mb of photos. This isn't a lot really. If you post 20 photos a month, at 100kb each, that's 2 Mb a month. In 15 months you'll have run out of space, and then you're screwed.
So I've had my eye open for something better. I found it.

Ange, one of the friends (of Deidre) that joined us for yum cha today, found out that I had started down the life coaching path, and she got very interested. To cut a long story short, I'm going to be her life coach as well.
This is excellent! Two people, within 3 days, want me to be their life coach!
I might have to start charging soon….
But seriously, charging will only happen when I believe I'm worth it. Right now I have no life coaching qualifications or experience, and so I don't feel qualified to charge for my services.
