“I have not failed.

This is not only a great quote, but it also gave me the inspiration for my post for Jacinta and Steve’s Blog Post 100 Comments Challenge. Whenever things in my life and business don’t seem to be going to plan, it always gives me the encouragement I need to never give up trying.

We should not be afraid to fail, in fact we must use it as a stepping stone to success. Why not use failure as a positive, an advantage if you like? I’m sure we’ve all experience failures from time to time…I know I’ve had my fair share. The important thing is how we react to them.

My lack of posts in July is something I am concerned about, but there is a reason… yes I have been on holiday!

It was a much needed break from my offline business, but a slight detraction from my new online efforts, as I decided not to take my laptop with me to Parga in Greece. I did consider taking it, but as it was my good lady Sandra’s birthday whilst we were there, I thought better of it…a wise decision I think! We had a great time and I am now fully refreshed, ready and more determind than ever to take my efforts to the next level.
