So much for intending to update this site more frequently! Have you ever noticed that the more you have to do,
the less time you appear to have available in order to do it? I thought advancements in technology, etc. were
supposed to enable us to decrease our work time and thus increase our leisure time?

Now that I've purchased a nice, new, shiny laptop PC I'm hoping to be able to update this site more frequently.
Attitude is more important than aptitude.»

I'm in the process of moving house - a life event that can cause a great deal of stress.
Sometimes the task seems too great: so much to do in so little time, so many people to notify, etc. This got me
thinking:
How successfully you cope with life's daily stresses depends greatly upon your mental attitude. If you believe
that you cannot do something or worry about all that could go wrong then you will most likely fail in your task.
You defeat yourself before you've even begun!
Adopt a positive mental attitude and convert the hurdles in your life into challenges to be overcome.
Now I know that this is more easily said than done. How you feel is a decision you have to make every day.
Another new year. Another new beginning.»

At this time of the year it is good to remind ourselves to look forward toward what is to come, rather than
backward at what has been and gone. Savour the reminiscences of the past but do not live in them.
