Less Stress, More Life & Business
Newsletter, July 2009

Building extraordinary businesses
and extraordinary lives

This months quote comes from the Greek philosopher Epictetus

'It is not he who reviles or strikes you who insults you, but your opinion that these things are insulting.'

Life is complex, difficult and confusing. There are no certain formulas or easy answers. Life is a journey full or twists and turns. Life is a miracle.

In this newsletter and the following newsletters, I will endeavour to share some of the things I have learned in the past 10 years; things that have eased my own path. Many times I lost my way until I finally realised that each de-tour was part of the journey.

I invite you to travel with me and if you would like to contribute with feedback or inspiring stories from your own journey the please click here.

With my best wishes for your success,
