Canvas Painting of your Life
The success of the individuals’ future rests on the actions of today.
If the pathway is not reaping benefits that better mankind, to be stuck in pride not changing the course of action, then clearly the future is easily determined by the reflections of today.
It is easy to be caught up with events of the day placing importance on that moment without the thinking through for the future. That is the art of mental discipline and common sense. Become consciously aware of the formula for success, regarding actions of the moment, are the consequences for tomorrow.

Engineering Drive
Keep looking for how things can be done better; keep experimenting on the fringe being the Captain Cook in industry. If you find advisers difficult it may mean you have good advisers.
The courage to go to battle the advisers are focused seeing it is even more important to win the war, if something is outside the field one should be confident to pull in another point view. Listen and above all take time, be observant.
Remember it is temper that drives most into trouble and pride that keeps one there. Knowledge is investment and being alert of where that knowledge arrives from, is it through books or the man at the coal face with years of experience who can see the unseen and feel what most cannot feel?

Does Eco History Matter?
Philosophical views considered in metaphysical law “the looking back – or over the shoulder “is not the way forward. However in the ever changing weather and severity does this global world need to look at construction for humans to survive the living status on their particular environment?
Taxing and wielding Carbon Credits does not stop the world’s weather pattern, but being consciously aware of this phenomenon; with hands on investment for the communities of sound building, food, water, and supplies should one be faced with weather trauma, earth or sea.
The will of nations that can be the row-boat of survival may well do to consider history.

Eco Change - Vanessa Collingridge
To quote “One must get people to dance first then change the music” what an inspired thought. Inspiration today comes from my meeting Vanessa Collinridge (Wikipedia or Google look her up) an extraordinary woman who walks the talk. Vanessa jumped off the replica ship the Endeavour (original sailed into the unknown searching for the new world by Captain Cook) in the middle of the ocean swimming around with a rifleman up the mast watching for sharks, looking back to the Endeavour of how incredible it was for the men that sailed in the original in the 1700 and especially Captain Cook his focus and ability to see what could not be seen. To feel what could not be felt.
A New Zealander named Lord Geering wrote a book called “What is Christianity without God” this important New Zealander and his many books I learned, the Christian view, Muslim, and other ancients said the world would be Global 1. They are right we are at global one. Irrespective of race colour or creed the internet has roped the world in a new era as one. Perhaps the ancients thought, was a world coming together totally in peace, harmony, sharing etc.
As Vanessa Collingridge demonstrates through her books, history is exciting, especially the people that broke through barriers of social cast, romance era, to where we stand today this new era of discovery beyond self. We have the knowledge of change, the tools to change, however the will to get people to dance so we can play the music, change and inspiration as with history and lessons learned we need to be a Captain Cook within ourselves first. The courage to do so like Vanessa Collingridge.
