Turn
on your Air-conditioners/Heaters earlier in the day before it gets too hot

less power overall.
Freedom tip :
Life
is a serious business. Bills to pay, work to go to, family
responsibilities. Sometimes it can get a little boring and stressful. So
every now and again, lighten up a little!
Do
something stupid with your kids, go down a slide at the play park, or sing
at the top of your voice just to embarrass your spouse.
In
fact, once in a while…do something that would normally embarrass YOU!
Life's too short not to have some fun
and stupidity occasionally.

Do
something a little crazy today (don't worry - you don't have to do it in
public!). Dance around the room to your favorite song, watch cartoons, go
and play football in the park with the kids.

do something that will bring a smile to your face – the time spent
will certainly be worth it!

Boo Hoo!!
Well isn’t this economic time great, with all the media hype
coming from all angles.
Every news paper and on every second day the TV if you watch it,
has some kind of negative story of how some person or family has been so
bad done by from some bank kicking them out of there home of 20 years or
the grocery stores how they are charging too much for food nowadays and the
big bad fuel companies have put the cost of a tank of petrol up again, well
all I can say is get over it people, you have it so good here is the land
of Oz (Australia) where you can walk down the street and feel the
sun shine on your face and a couple of dollars in your pocket.
Ok you may not be able to buy that new doodad you saw in the junk
mail magazine the other day and your family hasn’t the newest
clothing trends or you drive a beat up old Sigma, but you’re still living
and can smile if you try.
The only remedy to this is to wake up to consumerism; some of you
may not understand this but just hang in there for a minute. We all consume
but the small few have realized about how the world really works and it can
work for any one person who is willing to try and make a go of it,
So start now, break out from the mould that the education system
has filled our heads with and ignore the media that are jamming useless
products down our throats, so just don’t take it any more, have some
control of your life and thoughts, stop watching the TV (or less of it)
and put a no junk mail sticker on your letter box, just to start with and
see the difference in your feelings after a week or two.
The true test of your freedom will be when you can walk into your
favorite shop, for me it is Bunnings (hardware warehouse) or for
some a shopping mall or a computer shop with out buying something or a
snack that has just jumped out in front of you (and cleverly placed to
catch your eye) and other products that looks like it will save you a
huge amount time, money or even make you look thinner in some cases and not
buy anything, it may hurt a bit or feel funny for the first time but try it,
I’m not saying that you live like a hermit, just wake up and plan
your spending when out in the wide world of consumerism.
“You
only live once so why be broke while living it” See
you next month
