Reflections and thoughts...

I'M EXCITED ABOUT...

The challenges that lie ahead. I am feeling good about myself and my achievements this past year. Somewhere earlier on this year I felt that I would collapse under the weight of my worries and stresses (The most difficult phase of your life is not when no one understands you; it is when you don't understand yourself) but looking back, I think this has been one of my greatest successes in my life. Conquering the weights and demons brought to life the saying "What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger."

TODAY I'M FEELING...

Optimistic. I am looking into the future and seeing hope. Grand plans. Opportunities. I am happier than I have been in a long time.

WHAT I AM LISTENING TO...

As I type this I am in a workshop dealing with start-up strategies. I am listening to some of the world's greatest authorities in the subject share their two cents (which to me is actually their several millions worth of advice). I realize that it is a new day for the contemporary student and feel a twinge, wishing that I was me who would benefit from this amazing thinking.

THIS WEEKEND...

All roads lead to my SO's place. I have swollen feet from overtime at the office for the above mentioned conference. Rest and relaxation and movies all weekend. I am not interested in hearing any plans of going out, or anything like that. Indoors.

I"M CRAVING...

Liquorice. Don't ask. :)

I WISH...

that we Kenyans would include in the Vision 2030 a desire to have a serious reading culture. Maybe then we would have more people who could be more concise, and accurate, in their writing.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK...

"Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly." Robert F. Kennedy
