Live 8 was, and remains a brilliant moment but what is more important is the brilliant movement of which it was a part. This gives the poorest of the poor real political muscle for the first time.
It is this movement of church people and trade unionists, soccer moms and student activists, that will carry the spirit of Live 8 on. It is this movement, not rock stars, that will make it untenable in the future to break promises to the most vulnerable people on this planet.
That was always why we put on the concerts.

Their lyrics are so clear and the messages are positive and friendly. They speak of moving forward and love and power and help. What a contrast to much of today’s music which is filled with negative messages and emotions, so much anger – I guess a reflection of part of our world.

What I have learned over the while about changing my life – it starts with what goes on in your head – what you think. And thinking drives behaviour and action and thats’ how we change. The more feeling and emotion that gets mixed in the more powerful it all is.

So things to change first I must change and if we all want a better world to live in the first step is to change ourselves and the way we think and act. Then people will notice the cahnge in us and change too. One small step for man – one giant leap for mankind!

Anyway big thanks to Carole King and James Taylor, awesome show, awesome artists, fantatsically powerful music. I’m off to put the headphones on again, – have a listen to this:

Enjoy this and remember everyone (yes even you) can make a difference to the bigger issues. You just have to decide that you want to help, put it out there, that you want to help and then take action. Don’t have to solve world hunger in one day. Just take some positive action, doesn’t have to be big, small steps as they say. Every action adds to the momentum and it builds and it builds and it builds and before long we’ve reached the tipping point.

That’s when massive change happens.      And looking back it seems so easy and it is.

The same is true in your own life. You can make a difference. You can create the life you deserve.

Decide, put what you want out there and take action. Simple! Enjoy!

Life = risk.

Well here is the antidote. Positive media.  This is the kind of positiveness that inspires. This was produced by the company I work with. And it’s why I am so passionate about what I do and what I assist others to do. It’s from a documentary featuring a comedian named Michael Jr. who is someone who is making a positive impact in the lives of others. This is a small peek into the type of media my business opportunity offers. It’s pretty inspiring!

I hope you’ll enjoy the video as much as I did!

I’m also going to be sharing my ideas about home businesses and working for yourself and what I believe are the things that go to make up the home based business opportunity that is right for you.

I will even put some fun and humour in here because I know that has a really important part to play too.

As you may have guessed I do believe that in my case all these things are very connected. My business is an integral part of me achieving success in everything in my life – financial freedom, time freedom, awesome relationships, thought freedom, enjoyment freedom and whatever else comes up for me as I enjoy the journey that life has to offer. At the heart of this freedom is the freedom to use my brain to think the thoughts that give me my inner peace and for me I have defined this as 3 things – happiness freedom and joy. Fun and humour are one tool that will unlock your creativity and thrust new ideas into your mind.

And you know it all comes down to how we think. Sounds really simple, I know and it is, and there are many, many resources that we can use to help us on our path. I will share with you the ones that I find along the way.

So to start us off here’s a quote from Buddha:

“All that we are is the result of what we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think, we become.”
