I hate the 31st December because everyone gets all emotional and starts saying goodbye to something like they give a crap. Tomorrow starts a new year and everyone is happy until the 2nd January, after everyone hates each other again (business as usual I guess). 

Shouldn't we celebrate the end of every day and not just one? 31st December is another day in our life stringing together what will eventually make up all of our lives and we don't need stupid benchmarks like Christmas and New Year

with pointless fireworks that cost billions and only pollute and injure people. We need peace and to love one another and to start catering for the needs of the people. Rid the world of fear, pointless racist discussion and terrorism and finally start moving the human family forward as a species. It's 2016 and most of the age old problems are still with us. So maybe for this new year we can all learn to love and help each other out because remember the changing of the world starts at home. It's the little things that make the big differences. 

Happy continuation of your life! 

And to all the celebrity deaths this year. We have all lost people way closer to us than the few prominent people who we couldn't even talk or get close to. It's sad that they have gone but most of them weren't or haven't been active for a long time. So is it just us (as usual) holding on a past that has long left us behind? Just something to think about... 

Thoughts of Alstallio!

I was talking to someone the other day about my Adventures and Ideas Like My ‘Alstallio Piano Tutorials’ or ‘blogging’ and starting my own little business venture. It wasn't the first time I heard responses such as 'yeah well everyone is already doing that!' or 'that's been done before!'. 

My response always goes something like this ' that's exactly why you should do it!' because people have done it before you and it worked, so why can you or me not do the same and have success. I'm not saying copy people exactly but you can definitely use their concept and make it your own. 

There are 7 billion folks who like billions of different things and Ideas. Some people might like the way I write and other might prefer other writing styles. 

What I really don’t understand is why people always like to knock people like us off of our path to greatness. Even if we don’t make it to our destination, give us encouragement to at least try. 

 I realized this very reason has been stopping me doing most things I ever wanted to do. Like my piano videos, Blogging, Funny Talk videos etc. It held me back. And I see it daily holding great people back too. People who have more to offer the world but are locked in a box called (Someone has done it before syndrome). 

The worst thing is, when I think about it, It was the very people who I trusted most with my deepest secret plans to take over the world who made me feel like I have no chance cause someone has done it before me. 

 I'm sending this out because I want to free you and make you realize you don’t have to not do something because someone else has done it before. Look at all the industries that exist with copycat companies. I could write a list as long as this screen but I think you good folks readying this catch my drift. Just get the idea down and do it. 

Unlike most people who say failure is not an option. Failure is a part of life. Even failing is worth it, because you learn something along the way and it is better to have tried and failed than to have not done nothing at all. 

Peace

Last night my wife my wife was on a yoga seminar with the guru named Mark Whitwell who is the guru of my spouse's teacher. 

I was interested to know what was happening as I do have a great interest in yoga and practice at a rate of about a few times a week. 

Although I had not decided to take part in this workshop, and my wife would have liked me to go, I have all these other commitments at the moment (my daughter and of course WA) and I wanted to take her to a children's festival. So I thought it was just not possible for me to go at this time. 

Then it happened, My wife, the little go-getter that she is, says to the yogi 'How about inviting the spouses of the workshop members?'. He says, 'yeah, bring your husband along as my guest!'. So my wife was happy and shocked about the reply, and swiftly delivered the news to me that I would be now taking part in the 2nd day of the workshop... Great! I thought 

Me, as usual, thinking I was going to get a nice lie in this morning, but no! She had already planned for my daughter to be gone and I was now going to the Yoga workshop too. 

To be honest I was exciting and as I am a seeker of knowledge and new guidance I thought this would be a great opportunity/Experience to learn something new and take my yoga to the next level. 

So I get there at 0900am on a Sunday (I don't go to church because the required times to be there are not in sync with my body clock) and I enter a room full of women. I have always wondered why Yoga is full of women? And why not a lot of men are as interested in Yoga. Then this Mr. Mark Whitwell walks in and I duly introduce myself to him by saying “you summoned me!”. As a New Zealander, I knew he would know the term as New Zealand is a British Colony. 

So he introduced himself to me and was very appreciative that I had taken up his offer to attend his workshop as his guest. I was happy to be there acquiring knowledge from someone who has studied with great yogis of the past. He was very humble and made everyone feel very good about themselves. 

The most interesting stuff for me was obviously the Male to female ratio which he answered by saying men tend to be more extrovert when it comes to spirituality and working out (although yoga isn't a workout but rather a way of controlling the body, mind and spirit by controlled movement and breathe). 

They think there is nothing to achieve by doing yoga and that it makes sense for us men to do workout and get big muscles, cars, and beautiful women. 

The world is very masculine driven and that is what men are taught is important from a very young age. Whereas women are a bit more introvert and do things that feel right and are always looking for spiritual enlightenment and truth. 

OK, there are the arguments for the modern women becoming like the ancient man but I like to think women are still more in touch with reality and what really matters. Men should definitely do more yoga though because we need it most. I think the world would be a much better place if men learnt how to tap into their feminine (yin) side more and stop focusing on childish issues that are starting to become very annoying for the rest of us good living humans. 

He spoke a lot about man and woman's intimacy with each other. He believes this is one of the most important issues today and that for some reason we have learnt to think men and women should suppress all the natural urges for each other and that the mere fact that they would like to get intimate is scorned upon in most societies of the world. He says we should express ourselves more through sex if that is what we feel, and not let anyone or any misconception of our obsolete past get in the way of this beautiful desires. 

We did 3 practices during the day and I learnt a lot about breathing correctly. I have always done yoga for the flexibility and body but after this workshop and learning more about what Yoga truly means, I will focus more on the spiritual side. Mark Whitwell has a great little book out called 'The promise' which helps you with your yoga by showing you how to fit it into your schedule Daily. The yoga sessions in the book are 7 minutes practice for 40 days and he promises changes in your life during this time.I will try this now and in about 40 days I will write another blog about my experience. That was my short summary of my day with Mark Whitwell. It was very good and I will definitely seek him out again in the future.

So today I had to take a taxi. This might sound normal to some of you, but I have 2 cars at home. 

The problem was, my dear lady decided to take all the keys with her for the weekend trip away. Now I don't know how to handle this stuff well and I should do. but I am always thinking of the knock on effect, it has when someone does something which could have been prevented. 

This is why I always buy or take holidays when I want. Sometimes a bill will come in, and you have to pay it straight away. This is how I look at holidays too. I mean, Why should the tax man get my money without any resistance, but when I decide to treat myself, I have to contemplate if it is the right time or not. 

So do what you want, whenever you want and don't let anyone tell you otherwise, buy that new car, bike, or sofa. Take that holiday you so duly need, because like me, who had to pay 70 Euro for a 20 minute journey today, you never know when you will have to line someone else's pocket and not benefit from it at all.
