I don’t like that

We often can talk about things that we do not like, criticise what is being done, moaning about the people in charge.

We are all a bit guilty of knocking stuff at times or simply saying we could do better. After watching a film or seeing a game of football. Well I could have done better.

The fact is, if we had to actually write a script for a film or act it, we’d probably struggle, or if we had to play 90 minutes of Premier League football, we might find it a little harder than we thought.

It is easy to criticise and it takes the brave to actually do. Doing is more demanding than talking or criticising.

However doing is the more rewarding to the soul. Doing regularly leads to doing better and better.

Instead of talking about what you don’t like, talk about what you are doing as an alternative.

It’s all be done

I often hear people say that it’s all been done before, and that it’s impossible to be original or unique now.

I will let you ponder that in 1900 the US patent office considered closing, as everything that could have been invented had been.

We are only limited by what we tell ourselves. The ‘truths’ that we tell ourselves inside our own heads is all that holds us back from creating anything we want.

Just let go, let your imagination flow, and do not restrict yourself by what your own voice or that of others tell you.

It has not all been done, that will never happen all the time we remain curious.
