When you are not making the most of your potential then you are allowing others to set the standards for you. You should not allow your critics or competitors to determine the standards that you set for youreslf.

 As a martial artist of thirty years I am still always striving for exellence in my forms and techniques and am applying this concept to my blog.

 Psychology professor Jon Johnson points out the difference between mere success and excellence: “Success bases our worth on a comparison with others; excellence measures against our own potential. Success grants its rewards to the few but is the dream of the multitudes. Excellence is available to all living beings, but is accepted only by the few.”

 What steps are you taking to improve your strive for excellence with your blog?

Something To Shout About!

How many times have you had something to shout about?

Well today I came home from the office and went through my usual ritual of attempting to write a blog post.  Only to find myself coming into collision with the dreaded writers road block.  Took time out and did 20 minutes of Tai Chi.  I came back with my mind fully focused and ready to go.

My shout is about being amongst the 30 Practical Ways to Get Round Your Writing Road Blocks.
