The Secret of Success

If at first you don’t succeed, well you must just be like the rest of us mere mortals!  But what do we mean by succeed and against what are we judging ourselves and that level of success?

Life is a golden thread

Here is to those we have loved and kept and here is to those we have loved and lost, here is to the secret of life; the ability to love and endure!

Life is for the living and not for the dead! Life is for those daily tests, that tell us we are alive. Then by surviving them we get to enjoy these delicate, indescribably wonderful moments that make life what it is, unique, special, treasured!

Cometh the moment, cometh the man!

Cometh the moment, cometh the man!  Cometh the current financial crisis, cometh the need for many families and individuals to face up to that “moment”, these are days of reflection!

Hostess with the Mostest

I was recently listening to the radio, while on the way to dropping off my young water polo player Liam at school. It was Gareth Cliff on 5FM and he was busy interviewing  Lindsay Williams, a good friend of mine and a great character in the financial broadcasting world, ex of Summit TV and now on Warwick Market Report (6:30pm on FMR 101.3 and www.bizcast.co.za). They discussed the recent budget and just what a “non” budget it was, but what was really funny was the chat about just how fat our average MP’s now are!

Financial Maturity

Apparently in 2011 Argentina will join South Africa, New Zealand and Australia to create the “Southern Hemisphere’s” Four Nations Rugby Tournament.  I think that is really great as personally the Tri Nations is getting a little boring, the guys in the “Northern Hemisphere” introduced Italy to their annual drinking fest and it became the far better Six Nations a few years back.
