Gosh, I didn’t realise that the City Hatters in Melbourne still existed. I left Melbourne in 2000 and I remember visiting this store in the early 1980s, plus Henry Bucks across the road and of course Chloe's Bar at Young & Jackson’s across the road. She still hangs there. I’m sure the bar has sadly modernised. Then there’s Pellegrini's Espresso Bar, Sisto was beautiful and always a huge “ciao bella” from him when I walked in. High tea at the Hotel Windsor with musical quartet on Sunday afternoons. Lunch at the Hilton then walk to the MCG for a football game. So many more memories I could list. My goodness, where did all that come from? A flood of memories from one “mad hatter”. :)

#42 Of 365 Forward Steps Notes Wisdom On The Web The Hundredth Monkey Phenomenon means that when only a limited number of people know of a new way, it may remain the conscious property of these people. There is a point at which if only one more person tunes-in to a new awareness, a field is strengthened so that this awareness is picked up by almost everyone! The Hundredth Monkey Phenomenon points out our responsibility and power. We are affected by lack of harmony anywhere on the planet, even if not consciously aware. (Link is below)

Life Power Tip Before you go to bed at night, write down the six most important things you have to do the next day. If you do this, and make them the last things you think about before you go to sleep, your subconscious mind will work on them for you while you sleep and you WILL get them done the next day. This exercise will cure you of the procrastination disease and increase your productivity by up to 600% while relieving your stress levels at the same time. Moreover, consider this… six most important things to do every day means 180 most important things to do every month! Action Decide what thought you would use to replace worry or concern, and use the replacement often. Challenge Believe that your day will be completed as you wish and imagine it will. Quote Change and growth take place when a person has risked himself and dares to become involved with experimenting with his own life. -Herbert Otto Clearing Check the amount of tread on your car tyres. Question Do you confuse your activity with accomplishment? Affirmation I choose to move with confidence. Uplifting Extra Do you know what your next step needs to be for getting unstuck? Many times we are too close to something and cannot see wood for trees or we have past-based thoughts tied in with a current scenario. If you have decided on something that you want for yourself, your life or the lives of those for whom you care, then NOW is the time to begin. Find any way that you can to take yourself away from that kind of mind-play and allow yourself to be ruthlessly honest about what your next step needs to be. (Link is below)

Life Power Tip Become who you want to be. Determine who you want to be in your life and then choose “a vehicle” that will mould you to becoming that person. Very often, we want something not because we want “that thing”. We have seen people who have particular “things” and associate a certain way of “being” with those people who have those things. We then draw the obvious, yet illogical conclusion and declare, “I’ll have what she’s having”! What is forgotten in our equation is their journey preceding the “having”. Action Create your own annual holiday and celebrate that each year. Challenge Behave in a more certain way, remove ‘perhaps’ and ‘I do not know’ from your responses. Quote Chains of habit are too light to be felt until they are too heavy to be broken. -Warren Buffet Clearing See that your pets are up-to-date on their check ups and shots. Question Did you live consciously today, or were you at the effect of your circumstances? Affirmation I choose to feel more and more passion for the work I do. Uplifting Extra Acceptance does not mean you need to tolerate behaviour from others with which you don’t agree. You can still take a stand while accepting the reality of a situation. Use a few of these 30 tips and 30 conversation starters to support expanding your mastery of tolerance, acceptance and taking a stand. When we accept what is, it provides a breather and an opportunity to acknowledge what we’re actually dealing with. In that context, we usually take more appropriate and effective action or respond to a situation, rather than react, leading to more favorable outcomes. (Link is below)

#40 Of 365 Forward Steps Notes Wisdom On The Web Have you ever felt like there’s something invisible holding you back from the wealth and success you desire? Maybe you’ve worked hard, tried new strategies, yet things just don’t seem to fall into place the way they should. It’s frustrating, right? The surprising truth is, most of our financial limitations don’t come from the outside. They’re in our minds. That’s right, old beliefs and mental patterns we hold around money often create barriers we don’t even see. Imagine yourself finally breaking free from those beliefs and clearing out any mental blocks around wealth and abundance? The NLP Brain Reset and 100 Wealth-Block Clearing Affirmations are a duo of exclusive, free gifts designed to do just that. (Link is below)

Life Power Tip Become a master at knowing what you want. Keep focusing on the “do not wants” and that is 100% what you will get more of! Make it a primary focus to keep homing in on what you DO want. I cannot stress this point too often and you may think I am beginning to repeat myself if you have heard me say similar, elsewhere. It is THE first thing to work on. The one thing makes THE biggest difference. Action Create something hand-made and give it to a friend. Challenge Begin and continue paying yourself 10% of your weekly income. Quote Carefully watch your thoughts, for they become your words. Manage and watch your words, for they will become your actions. Consider and judge your actions, for they have become your habits. Acknowledge and watch your habits, for they shall become your values.

Life Power Tip Become a highly disciplined time manager. There are 86,400 seconds in each day. It takes less than one of those to make a decision. Each decision that we make can take our lives in a wholly different direction. When your life is “full of things to do”, we barely notice these “little” decisions. Start noticing! Plan your days so that you are more focused in the now and can see purpose in the things that you do each moment. Action Create an online photo site for your family. Challenge Become an expert at listening to your ‘higher self’. Quote “Go back?” he thought. “No good at all! Go sideways? Impossible! Go forward? Only thing to do! On we go!” -J.R.R. Tolkien Clearing Check water hoses and reticulation systems for repairs or spare parts. Question Could you catch yourself doing something right, today? Affirmation I choose to feel that I attract whatever I want to attract. Uplifting Extra You have dozens of subconscious money blocks, each shifting the decisions you make around money and choking your abundance. You need to delete these negative money blocks in order to reach that next level.
