Spot on mike, I agree, and kinda what eckhart tolls message is,

Wayne, yes but the above does not mean don't plan for the future or have goals. Goals are important.

I looked up quotes by Dale, very good thanks, in return try Josh billings quotes, one clever witty man, an American humorist lived in the 1800s

Here's a couple Of his I like,

'It's not what a man knows that hurts him but what he knows that isn't true'

'love is said to be blind, but I know some fellows who can see twice as much in their sweethearts than I do.'

I came on this site thinking about the working week ahead and then readjusted my sights upon the philosophical posts as I realized .....work is just a phase in life 8) 8) 8) and anyway in 28 yrs of working life-15 in business- I have never known it so bad ...pass the pipe

People seem to be suggesting that living in the moment is awareness. I think there is a difference between the two.

If you are in the moment you are not reflecting you are doing whatever you are doing.
It's not expensive, you just can't afford it.

Bosh,

Have you read the power of now by eckhart tolle? Whislt I'm skeptical about some things he says, some of it's very interesting perspective, he says now is the only reality the past and future don't exsist, only in thoughts, the past happened in a previous now, the future and past are just thoughts in our mind. We never live life in the future or past. Now is the only reality. Now is all we ever have. Therefore make the most of it, never think in one year il do this then be happy.. Because you miss the now!

Which can only be a good message.


Sure thing, Craig, that is exactly what I mean, I haven’t red that book, but I can tell you read this book (THINK & GROW RICH ) BY NAPOLEON HILL.
Great book if you want to rich out high in Horizon .

Bosh, your tagline makes no sense, it says the majority can, then says most cannot!

It's 4 o clock in the morning and I'm wrecked but even I can work out that's complete crap.

Here's a couple more of Josh billings

'silence is one of the hardest arguments to refute'

'the best way to convince a fool he is wrong is to let have his own way'
