I thought I would save the title that Word Press first gave to me as a new blogger; “Hello World!” it reads.  At first glance it’s a title that makes me cringe. The idea of telling the world that I have decided to write a blog seems alittle self – important however, on closer inspection, this is exactly the statement I would like to become comfortable with and my exact reason for creating this blog.  You see, I WOULD like to open up my arms and say “Hello” to the world, embrace it, run along sunkiss beaches, achieve my dreams, live a truly happy, prosperous and fullfiling life but somehow there’s a block at the moment. The Block comes in the form of a little thought ( in the sound of my own voice by the way!!) that says “That’s never going to happen”, “Stop dreaming”, “Get real”, “Stay where you are”, “There’s no point changing”, “It will never happen” and Then a few months ago I saw this;

This inspiring video got me thinking; Will smith is a successful man and opens this video with the statement; “I have a great time with my life and.. I want to share it” , “I love Living” and the video continues that he wants to “represent an idea”, “That you really can make what you want”. Smith goes on to say that the first step is that ” YOU have to believe it”  and with focus, study, commitment to challenging fears and daily work you too can have a great life and live your dreams.

So what I want to find out is this; Is it really possible to start living a great life? Will studying, researching and  practicing these ideas (and others like them) shift the block I am experiencing, conquer the negative thinking? and finally start my life changing for the better?
