SCREW THE NORMAL LIFE!!! I'm going diving...
7 years on-air on national radio, 19 years of corporate bullshit, I've climbed the ladders always ONLY to find more stress, dissatisfaction and LESS time for what matters.
I packed up my bags in February 2009 with only 5 shirts and 4 pairs of shorts and became a PADI Instructor to live "THE SIMPLE LIFE".
THIS IS MY BLOG...

CROSSING THOUGHT...
Life is interesting...as you take the stroll down its path, many choices are made with many bridges and mountains crossed. Stage by stage priorities change and new directions are formed.
When young, you'd want freedom to do what you want, after school it's find a fun job with great friends, few years down the line you want a flashy car, later you chase the ladder of corporate success hoping that one day you'd be a big manager...
Few years later you wanna make your millions and do everything you can to get it...
Then come points in life where things are at a standstill and this is when new directions are formed.
Because the world says High Profile Job, Flashy Car and Bungalow in an upmarket neighborhood proves that you are successful, we blindly follow the path and sell our souls to corporations and bosses who have also been brainwashed to think that they too need the above to show the world that they are successful!
Sit back and look at life and the people around you! You'd realize that because of what humans WANT and what The World has classified as proof of success, many end life unhappy or unsuccessful.
Find the one thing you'd pay to do - and have it pay YOU!
May not guarantee riches, but least you tried to be successful FOR YOURSELF!.
Example: Walter DID NOT do lots of things HE WANTED to do in life - saved every penny DREAMING of a luxurious retirement - died at 36 with a loaded bank account and a list of things he wished he had done!
