Pooping Out Rainbows

Whassup readers!

A slight change of pace for this one, because it comes at a time where things are really, really starting to look up for me.

First of all, it comes as no surprise that I'm still stoked by 'The Idea' as I've come to term it.

Second of all, you ever get that feeling where everything you touch turns to gold, or that others think you poop out rainbows because you're such a goodie-goodie to them?

You know the feeling, one minute things were looking down and out and instead, now, they are really beginning to click into place for you. Well this is how I feel at the minute & now comes the part where I've got to justify that (well, I don't have to but this blog is my vent) so I will...!


Ever since I changed my priorities and decided not to let the lass I told you about I'd met on line a few months back, affect me derogatorily in any way, shape or form by not wanting to meet again, I've been seeing things clearer, definitely different to how I used to see before.

On Monday I had my concept of the future blown well and truly wide open, for I was walking around Waterhead Park in Oldham, and that was when it hit me...

NO!!! Not bird poop, bro's! XD

I got the revelation that instead of walking a solitary path interjected with doors and doorways for me to go through (for doors & doorways, see opportunities), I am walking a path at the minute that has a multitude of possibilities and intertwining pathways, some that lead off to the left and others that lead off to the right.

We're all like this, bro's! You, me... everybody... everybody (ED: do NOT link that song with this!)...

This is the dramatic idea I want us to think about as we go through our lives for the next few days. For as we walk along with our gaze oftentimes so focused on our own self-centred and narrow little path that we're walking (where am I going today? what am I doing today?), when we forget that there are other opportunities placed in our path day in, day out and we've just go to be looking for them.

Why? Because when you're too busy looking ahead, you trip over what's right in front of you, or just walk past it completely oblivious (I know, I've done the very same myself!) to it all.

It hit me like a truck that did and I still remember to this day (even though it's only a few days since it happened!) what that looked like seeing over a thousand doors & the paths leading up to them all swapping & changing.

It's relevance for me? Well, that has to... HAS TO be this opportunity that has been provided for me to start a business of my very own (well, not my own for I'm only working as instructed, as I've already told you, lol!) and I promise you this, if you were to ask me last year, or even at the start of this year, whether I would believe that by summer '13, I'd be in the throes of forming a business where I am the boss, I am 'the guy', I'd tell you that you're a liar!

I never saw this coming, this is why I say this & this is why that revelation as I was walking round the park, just blew my mind because I've started to see things so much clearer and different now compared to how I used to be.

What I'm asking you is, are you on a rollercoaster of life? Don't worry if you are, because we're all like that at times, with our up's and down's. What I'm trying to remind you is that sometimes, you might just wanna take a look around your circumstances & see just where you are, what you've got and what other doors may be opening to you.

It may just be that the rollercoaster you think you're on, is in fact a metro ride toward another destination maybe even you didn't see coming!

FINAL THOUGHT

So, with that in mind, next time things are looking down (or even when they're up!), stop for just a moment, take a look around & ask yourself: -

• Do I have to react like this every time, thus creating a seemingly unbreakable bad habit?; and
• Where I am, is this where I am going to be in five year's time? Ten? Fifteen? Twenty?

For I hope that when you can answer those and answer them honestly, it leaves you surprised by the results and surprised in what you're both capable of and where you're headed in life... you may just be surprised! ;-)

Until next time...

Peace out, bro's!

PS. When someone asks you to solve an unsolvable problem, do you ever start to wonder if maybe they think you poop out rainbows, if all you do is good stuff for them? Is being 'The Nice Guy' always the best?

Find out next time (after my review of the Belgian GP coming soon) when I'll be exploring that in my own inimitable style...
