I came across this blog entry http://thecanadianrepublic.blogspot.com/2008/11/reason-obamaism-wont-last.html - in the middle of the euphoria of Obama's election as the president of the USA.

Ahem. Went to the gym this evening and must say I struggled to be motivated to get there and to stay there once I got there. Put myself under some pressure to make the effort today since I had not been since Saturday and when I weighed myself this morning, ...

I am really struggling to get into the daily upkeep of this blog. Additionally sometimes I just want to write about something that has no real relevance to self improvement and the four states of the human experience. But when I do, I will try to relate it because if ...

The problem with the self stock-check is that one is in danger of discovering lots of things that require changing. And some time the list can be quite intimidating. But you have to be hash with what needs changing, too much and the changes are never going to happen, too ...

Don't know if this is happening to you but I think our lack of a decent summer seems to be going to some people's heads. It is said that the most break downs of marriages and long term relationships happen after Christmas. I think this years miserable attempt at a ...
