#169 Of 365 Forward Steps Notes Wisdom On The Web I spotted this article, titled What You Say Matters, in the free Living On Purpose ezine from Ken Keis, President & CEO of CRG International Inc., and received permission to post it at the Forward Steps blog for you. In many of my own writings I have emphasized similar points often enough, and Ken’s article just drove it home once more. (Link is below)

What You Say Matters So Listen Carefully

Do you listen to what you say out loud to yourself or others? @forwardsteps https://www.forwardstepsblog.com/what-you-say/

Life Power Tip If you cannot see the wood for the trees, it is time to step away for a bit! “Every now and then go away, have a little relaxation, for when you come back to your work your judgment will be surer; since to remain constantly at work will cause you to lose your power of judgment. Go some distance away because the work appears smaller and more of it can be taken in at a glance, and a lack of harmony or proportion is more readily seen.” — Leonardo da Vinci. Action Plant a herb garden outside your kitchen door. Challenge Just for one day, let go of control. Ease it up a little today. Quote Man often becomes what he believes himself to be. If I keep on saying to myself that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible that I may end by really becoming incapable of doing it. On the contrary, if I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning. – Mahatma Gandhi. Clearing Have a central place to list items you need to get, avoid many short trips. Question What can you do on a daily basis to energize your goals? Affirmation I choose to feel more and more grateful.

If you have 93 government employees per 1,000 people in Australia, you mathematically "own" a share of roughly 169 to 183 hours of public sector labor every single year. That breaks down to about 3.5 hours a week just for you. Of course, you can't actually get them to mow your lawn or fill out your paperwork. Those hours are already fully spoken for by the teachers in our schools, nurses in public hospitals, police officers, and defense personnel. Still, it's a wild metric to wrap your head around: 169+ hours of government labor per citizen, every year. Mind you, I based that on incorrect figures when we only include tax payers. There are roughly 2.6 million government employees in Australia (federal, state, and local combined). When you break that down against the people keeping the lights on: • There is 1 government employee for every 6.2 people who lodge a tax return (16.1 million lodgers). • There is 1 government employee for every 4.5 people who pay net positive income tax (11.7 million net taxpayers). That means for every 1,000 net Australian taxpayers, there are 222 public sector workers. The vast majority of these aren't bureaucrats in Canberra, but frontline workers like public school teachers, nurses, and police officers funded by your state and federal taxes. #australia #tax #economy #stats

Anja explains why she questions the reporting of transfers to your own wallet, and why she believes the safety of Bitcoin holders deserves more attention. Jordan shares his view on unrealised capital gains and superannuation. The conversation then widens to the cost of government in Australia, libertarian ideas explained in plain language, the role of the state, community, and the rise of One Nation. 🔑 KEY TAKEAWAYS Jordan says the draft would require exchanges to report transaction information to the ATO Jordan is concerned the draft leaves much of the detail to regulations made by the minister Anja questions why transfers to your own wallet need to be reported Anja highlights personal safety risks if holder data is leaked Jordan suspects unrealised capital gains could be a future focus for crypto Jordan describes libertarianism as the premise that you are the best person to make decisions for yourself and your family Both guests encourage viewers to read the draft and form their own view ⏱️ CHAPTERS 00:00 Meet Jordan Dittloff 02:55 The Bill and the Rushed Consultation Period 03:22 What the Exposure Draft Does 07:38 Why Rules by Regulation Concern Jordan 10:07 Anja's Concerns on Wallet Transfers and Ministerial Powers 12:48 Safety and Self Custody Risks 14:13 Unrealised Capital Gains and Super 18:39 Cost of Government, Not Cost of Living 20:26 Are Australians Waking Up? 24:27 What Is Libertarianism?

Life Power Tip If you aim at nothing, you will hit it every time. Get clear about your direction and about your goals. Have targets, create targets, set targets. It is perfectly fine to make them up as you go along. As long as they get you back in action, empower you and make your heart sing. Action Plan what you will be doing with your next day off.

Life Power Tip If nothing changes… nothing changes! Taking even a small, different action breaks the loop that keeps the same results repeating. To have something different you must think, be and do different. If you truly want something to change, decide to be the catalyst for that change. In the words of Mahatma Gandhi, “You must be the change you want to see in the world”. Action Pinpoint the commonality in your happiest moments so you can recreate them. Challenge Invest a small amount of time each day in your continuing education. Quote Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do. -Rob Siltanen Clearing Group like items together, so they are easy to find when needed.

A friend reminded me this morning that we had seen this. I’d forgotten all about that. Oops! Jeff Wayne's Musical Version of The War of the Worlds performed live at the Burswood Dome in Perth, Australia, on Saturday, September 8, 2007. This spectacular arena event brought Jeff Wayne's iconic 1978 progressive rock concept album to life using a mix of live musicians, a multi-national cast, and cutting-edge multimedia effects. Key Elements of the Perth Performance • The Production: Jeff Wayne personally conducted the 40-piece String Orchestra and the 10-member Black Smoke Band. The production featured a 3-ton, 30-foot tall Martian Fighting Machine that hovered over the stage, fired real heat rays into the audience, and scanned the stadium. • The Narration: The late Richard Burton appeared "in sight and sound" via a giant, high-definition floating hologram to deliver his legendary performance as George Herbert, The Journalist. • The Cast: The show blended original musicians from the 1978 album with well-known Australian talent: • Justin Hayward (from The Moody Blues) re-created his original role singing "The Sung Thoughts of the Journalist" (including the hit Forever Autumn). • Chris Thompson reprised his role as the Voice of Humanity. • Australian Idol runner-up Shannon Noll starred as Parson Nathaniel. • Australian stage star Rachael Beck played Beth (the Parson's wife). • Australian musical theatre actor Michael Falzon performed as the Artilleryman

GN Nostriches 🌟 The Spiritual Conspiracy by Brian Piergrossi Text from the video: On the surface of the world right now there is war and violence and things seem dark, But calmly and quietly, at the same time, something else is happening underground. An inner revolution is taking place and certain individuals are being called to a higher light. It is a silent revolution, From the inside out, From the ground up. It is time for me to reveal myself. I am an embedded agent of an secret, undercover, clandestine, global operation. A spiritual conspiracy. We have sleeper cells in every nation on the planet. You won’t see us on the TV. You won’t read about us in the newspaper, You won’t hear about us on the radio. We don’t seek any glory, We don’t wear any uniform, We come in all shapes and sizes, colors and styles. Most of us work anonymously. We are quietly working behind the scenes in every country and culture of the world. Cities big and small, mountains and valleys, in farms and villages, tribes and remote islands. You could pass by one of us on the street and not even notice. We go undercover. We remain behind the scenes. It is of no concern to us who takes the final credit, But simply that the work gets done. Occasionally we spot each other in the street, We give a quiet nod and continue on our way so no one will notice. During the day many of us pretend we have normal jobs, But behind the false storefront at night is where the real work takes place. Some call us the “Conscious Army”. We are slowly creating a new world with the power of our minds and hearts. We follow, with passion and joy, Our orders from the Central Command, The Spiritual Intelligence Agency. We are dropping soft, secret love bombs when no one is looking: Poems Hugs Music Photography Movies Kind words Smiles Meditation and prayer Dance Social activism Websites Blogs Random acts of kindness. We each express ourselves in our own unique ways with our own unique gifts and talents. “Be the change you want to see in the world”, That is the motto that fills our hearts. We know it is the only way real transformation takes place. Quietly and humbly we have the power of all the oceans combined. Our work is slow and meticulous, Like the formation of mountains. It is not even visible at first glance, And yet with it entire tectonic plates shall be moved in the centuries to come. Love is the new religion of the 21st century. You don’t have to be a highly educated person, Or have any exceptional knowledge to understand it. It comes from the intelligence of the heart, Embedded in the timeless evolutionary pulse of all human beings. Be the change you want to see in the world. Nobody else can do it for you. We are now recruiting. Perhaps you will join us Or already have… All are welcome… The door is open. Source: The Spiritual Conspiracy by Brian Piergrossi is from his book The Big Glow.

#166 Of 365 Forward Steps Notes Wisdom On The Web The law of attraction states that whatever you focus on and intend in your life, shall be delivered to you.

Life Power Tip Identify your passions and deep desires. Before you even put pen to paper in writing your goals, get very clear about the things that drive you most, the things that can have you lost in ‘the zone’ for hours, the things that get you excited and light up your eyes. Your goals need to be goals that will produce a result of true fulfilment when accomplished. Action Pick a flower to put in a vase on your desk, or someone else’s. Challenge Instead of emailing or phoning colleagues who are at the other end of the office, go and talk to them. Quote Look at a stone cutter hammering away at his rock, perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred and first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not the last blow that did it, but all that had gone before. -Jacob A.
