Lessons from the W...

W Singapore in Sentosa Island
As I sit here on my balcony at the W Singapore sipping on a cup of fresh brewed coffee, I am reminded of the importance of getting away; of recharging the batteries and spending time with an amazing person, reflecting on the gift of life, and focusing on what I enjoy.  I remember when there was a time in my life when I didn't really do I much for fun.  I saved and penny pinched every opportunity I had.  I viewed free time and holidays as a waste of time because they took me away from being productive and what we in "the biz" like to call "dollar productive behaviors."  I viewed anything that wasn't giving me tangible results as a waste of time.  Weekends away? Forget about it.  It took me away from earning an income and "getting ahead." What about spending money on things and experiences that would bring me happiness? No way.  Money is meant to be saved and accumulated.  Days off to relax? Never. A day doing nothing is a day worth nothing.  These were just some of my beliefs. I know! I was pretty screwed up. And to be honest this is yet a battle in which I have completely won.  I still struggle with down time. I still have a hard time splurging on the fine things that life has to offer.  I still ask myself if I really deserve the level of happiness and success I have been so fortunate to experience.

The reality is that these are the beliefs that I have not fully overcome but I take steps every day to face them.  I always grew up with the belief to be grateful and focus on the necessities and the luxuries were never a necessity.  Why stay at a $500 per night hotel when I could easily find one for $100 per night? Why take a day off when that is more time to be productive and get ahead in life? I made a conscious decision about 8 years ago that I would actively seek out opportunities for growth that scared me.  I would spend money when it made me uncomfortable.  I would take time off when I was feeling overwhelmed.  I would confront people that made me feel smaller than I actually was.

Now as I sit here in my $500+ per night hotel room, I encourage you to find something that makes you really uncomfortable that you have been resisting for a long time and take it on.  Ask the woman or man out that you've had your eye on for a while.  Treat yourself to an expensive dinner.  Take a weekend to get away and do absolutely nothing.

You'll end up thanking me for it and thanking yourself in the process.

Love,
Matt

  3. I am bold enough among many others to state that there is now a potent cure to this sickness but many are unaware of it. I discovered that I was infected with the virus 3 months ago, after a medical check-up. My doctor told me and I was shocked, confused and felt like my world had crumbled. I was dying slowly due to the announcement of my medical practitioner but he assured me that I could leave a normal life if I took my medications (as there was no medically known cure to Herpes). I went from churches to churches but soon found that my case needed urgent attention as I was growing lean due to fear of dying anytime soon. In a bid to look for a lasting solution to my predicament, I sought for solutions from the herbal world. I went online and searched for every powerful trado-medical practitioner that I could severe, cos I heard that the African Herbs had a cure for Herpes syndrome. It was after a little time searching the web that I came across one Dr Itua(A powerful African Herbal Doctor), who offered to help me at a monetary fee. I had to comply as this was my final bus-stop to receiving a perfect healing. My last resolve was to take my life by myself, should this plan fail. At last it worked out well. He gave me some steps to follow and I meticulously carried out all his instructions. Last month, to be precise, I went back to the hospital to conduct another test and to my amazement, the results showed that negative,Dr Itua Can As Well Cure The Following Desease…Cancer,Hiv,Herpes,Shingles, Hepatitis B,Liver Inflammatory,Diabetes,Fibroid,Parkinson's,Alzheimer’s disease,Bechet’s disease,Crohn’s disease,Cushing’s disease,Heart failure,Multiple Sclerosis,HypertensionFatal Familial Insomnia Factor V Leiden Mutation ,Epilepsy Dupuytren's disease,Desmoplastic small-round-cell tumor Diabetes ,Coeliac disease,Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease,Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy, Ataxia,Arthritis,Amyotrophic Lateral Scoliosis,Autism,Fibromyalgia,Fluoroquinolone ToxicitySyndrome Fibrodysplasia Ossificans ProgresS sclerosis,Seizures,Adrenocortical carcinoma.Asthma,Allergic diseases,,Copd,Glaucoma., Cataracts,Macular degeneration,Cardiovascular disease,Lung disease.Enlarged prostate,Osteoporosis.
