3. TODAY'S SELF-OBSERVATION
Today has got off with a welcome morale-boost in the form of the monthly accounts - the Blonder family has clawed back a £200 hole in the budget in an impressive two months, to get back in the black by £30. However there is no room for complacency - October is a five-week shopping month, November is Son's birthday and December is Christmas! Prudent spending will need to remain in place!  

With the gardening season now over, I can focus upon spiritual and Hypnotherapy Practice development. I need to rein in frivolous time spent online and use those hours more usefully. I am no longer perpetually chasing fresh music and porn, but have instead discovered Tumblr and video editing, which are equally time-consuming! I still intend to enjoy these things but on a more controlled basis.

Spiritual goal is: the elimination of unnecessary thought and to be guided by intuition
Business goal is: to raise my profile and attract more and influential clients
Personal goal is: to make a difference continually, to self, environment and others, prioritising Son and Missus

7. NOW THAT'S FUNNY

8. TRIVIA
Some sharks can bite hard enough to cut through a thick piece of steel. Like lions and other predators, sharks usually kill only when they are hungry, which isn’t very often. Some sharks can live a year without eating, living off the oil stored in their bodies. 

9. ZEN WISDOM
Defeat lies not in failing or making mistakes; rather, it lies in giving up on ourselves when we do so.
