Rosa, thank you for your kind words of encouragement.Coming from somone who has built a site such as this is praise indeed, it gives me quite a buzz to hear such words. Suffice it to say it gives me great encouragement to continue to write more.
I feel everyone has something of importance to say, everyone can say something that will touch another persons life in a positive way and I feel this is my turn to say something. I know it’s a cliche, but if I only help one person, then that will be enough.
Thanks for reminding me regarding the about page, it’s on my To Do list.
If any of your readers come to my site I hope I can make it worthy of their time.
You have a great site and I intend to read the whole of your blog.

Welcome to Talking Story Chris and Lyndon! I am hoping this will be the first of more visits for both of you!
Lyndon, I too am a strong advocate of visualization, for it helps us make intangible wants and desires more real; visualization helps us shape goals better, associating them with other presence in our lives, and getting them to ‘appear’ more achievable and realistic for us.
Also Lyndon, I see that you have just started a blog of your own, and I think you are off to quite a magnificent start! I love that you wrote this:
“I want this site to be different, I want it to mean something, this means putting it out there, throwing away the cynical self, and retelling stories of success is one way of doing that.”
If I can make a suggestion, do add an About page soon, so we can all get to know you better; I am quite sure that the Talking Story community of readers would love to read more of what you have to say. Ho’ohana Community: do take a moment to read more of Lyndon’s feelings on goal setting – great stuff:

I find visualising the goal helps for me. Making the goal seep into my world and work on my unconscious, like writting it down and putting it under my pillow, or writing the goal down and rolling it into a bottle and throwing it in the sea.
It’s amazing how powerful the subconsciousness is when it gets going.

Hi Rosa- Glad it worked out for you. I certainly benefit from your weekly sharing on Lifehack.org, so I’m glad to finally be able to give something in return. : ) — Chris…
