It was our friend, Pete's birthday last Sunday so we had arranged to go and see John Shuttleworth at the Bromsgrove Artrix.
John Shuttleworth, aka Graham Fellows, is very original and funny, in small doses. Darren thinks he is fab, I think he is OK. He sang Jilted John in the late seventies - you might remember him for that, if you are as old as me.........
Anyway, as John Shuttleworth, he sits with his organ (ahem, musical organ) and sings little ditties inbetween banter about all sorts ranging from his friend Ken to his wife Mary. He is very good but I have to say two hours is plenty for me......
.......
We did have a lovely Indian meal afterwards though. Its amazing that this one was open til midnight on a Sunday. Saying that though we were the only ones in there! Food was gorgeous though. So in all a good evening and I would love to go to the theatre or go to shows a bit more often. Defo an age thing isn't it. The theatre never used to appeal but it does now..............
Watched The Secret last night and can honestly say that of you can apply The Secret to your everyday thinking it could really change your life. I have the book too and must admit to thinking a little differently now and trying to apply it. In some ways I did anyway, but I think I will up it a gear and get what I really want out of life. For those of you who don't know what The Secret is then I am not going to tell you - cos its a secret. 
In a nutshell, The Secret is the Law of Attraction. Whatever your predominant thought is, that is what you attract into your life. So, positive thinking is the key and focussing on what you have to be grateful for, so that you get more of it.
I love this quote and its so true:
'Whether you think you can or think you can't, either way you are right.'
Henry Ford,(1863-1947)
In other words, if you go into something thinking you can do it, you can get it, you can become it - then you will. Go into things saying I can't - then you won't. I truly believe this and positive thinking is the way I think anyway. I really believe positive vibes attracts more positive and likewise with negative.
So now I am going to have a few daily mantras - yet to be finalised and put into a short sentence. But if I can focus on these on a daily basis and not just read words but truly believe and visualise, then I really am on the way to having the life I want and deserve.
This applies to us all - so go get the book and I defy you not to be inspired..........
Hiya lovely - yep I agree with you too on the positive thinking, as hard as it may be mind. But we got to be positive in life, else if we go into things thinking we are going to fail, that is often what we do. Thanks for the reminder, positivity is now my plan for next week, lol.
