Step outside your comfort zone and make a pointJul. 29th, '11 @ 12:16am

We often see things out of the ordinary but fail to act on them, so this month my mission was to find something unique and make a point to act on it. It was a little hard to step outside my comfort zone but once I turned the task at hand into a mission I found it to be pretty fun and rewarding…

Read below is the mission brief:

The final outcome:


Dear Private Lutenant ______,

I usually like to play the practical jokes but on Friday the 22nd the joke was on me, its not everyday you see a mother and her daughter be so happy and comfortable around each other to a degree that you mistake them for best friends. That has a priceless value in society and I think it’s only fair for it to be rewarded.

As a result task force heat sink was established to help reward and relieve the participants of the Friday night friendly encounter. Details of the mission brief and execution strategy are outlined below:

Moral of the story:

  • If someone shares a smile with you, make sure you share it back with them.
  • Challenge and reinvent yourself, if you dont then you will be like every other predictable person.

Surprise fact along the way

The normal understanding is that something is done for a reason or an expected outcome. If that is thought to be true, would exploration and experimentation exist 10 years from now?

Happy BirthdayJun. 1st, '11 @ 2:52am

A person's birthday is usually recorded according to the time zone of the place of birth. Thus people born in Samoa at 11:30 pm will record their birthdate as one day before Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) and those born in the Line Islands will record their birthdate one day after UTC. They will apparently be born two days apart, while some of the apparently older ones may be younger in hours. Those who live in different time zones from their birth often exclusively celebrate their birthdays at the local time zone. In addition, the intervention of Daylight Saving Time can result in a case where a baby born second being recorded as having been born up to an hour before their predecessor.

Prince William and Miss Catherine Middleton have created a charitable gift fund to help celebrate their wedding. The fund will focus on assisting charities which support the five causes chosen by the couple. These causes are close to their hearts and reflect the experiences, passions and values of their lives so far. Having been touched by the goodwill shown to them since their engagement, they have asked that anyone wishing to send them a wedding gift consider doing so in the form of a donation to the fund.

Get busy working on solutionsApr. 2nd, '11 @ 3:59am

Recently we had some visitors come over to our house and they have two little kids. They asked if they could use the computer and the first thing they did was to go to google and search for free kids games. They got to the games but it was extremely disturbing to see people developing these websites have little concern about the advertisements been shown on those websites.

I got a little upset as to why people only focus on generating google adwords revenue and lack any creativity to find new ways to generate revenue so I decided that I would setup and free online games website and get an ethical community to support its hosting. The games are safe for kids and I’m going to work on setting up some more educational games on there soon.

As individuals we should really consider the implications of our actions. I feel more productive when I sit down and work on something rather than sitting there whinging about the problems with the world. It took me 8 hours to build and close to $230 but I can rest knowing that some kid is going to be entertained without been corrupted by junk on the internet.

Clothes and BrandsMar. 8th, '11 @ 11:13pm

Recently I went out with a group of people on a Friday night and for some strange reason we ended up at a beech at 1am. We all decided to jump in and race to the nearest boat but one member of the group didn’t join. He was the more fashion conscious one and he didn’t have the right outfit for the occasion.
If you notice most clothing brands build an image of by you wearing their products you are free and cool but in reality most people are buy the brand are worried about how much they spent on the outfit and are scared to get it ruined.
If a $120 Polo outfit is going to stop you from taking a swim with your friends on a Friday night then I guess you are the worst ambassador for that brand.

Clothes and brands should never define you; as nelson Mandela would say “I am the master of my fate - I am the captain of my soul”
