1 Minute Motivator: The Shipwreck


Thumbnail image for 1 minute motivator

The only survivor of a shipwreck was washed up on a small, uninhabited island. He prayed feverishly for God to rescue him, and every day he scanned the horizon for help, but none seemed forthcoming. Exhausted, he eventually managed to build a little hut out of driftwood to protect him from the elements and to store his few possessions. But then one …

How to Maintain a Healthy Mind


Thumbnail image for How to maintain a healthy mind

Your daily actions cause you to think different ways at different times. Why and how this works I am not sure, I am not a doctor. What I do know is that if I sit in the house and watch tv all day, for three whole days, I tend to be more irritable and have tunnel vision when I go to approach my activities instead of having an open mind.

Before you think I’ve gone completely insane, yes, I do realise it’s Friday. I’m not advocating pulling a sickie or telling your boss that your hamster has died (although if you can day a day off work by ethical means, that’s always fun;)) Today I am recommending you take the day off from the stuff that goes on …

Today we have an interesting rant from the ‘pen’ of @RoyTheArtist. His art website is full of intersting ‘how-to’ videos whilst his blog is the place to visit if you want to talk art with him. He has some things he’s like to get off his chest. Roy, over to …
