You even may become president of your country if you frequently use this word. Once I was in a seminar with a guy who was 98% paraplegic. He had to change his life to keep himself alive, to still have a sense of living, to still enjoy his life. And what he learned during this process he shared with us, while rolling around in his wheelchair. His main message was simple: "Do you know it or do you do it?" Isn´t that a mean question? How often did you dream about changing your life? A new job, emigration, quit smoking, leaving your partner, change everthing and start from scratch? How many books did you read about changing your life, improving your skills, having a better relationship, loosing weight, train your body? So I am pretty sure you know very well what and how to do, to change your life. But do you do it? Mean! Let´s do yourself a little do-more-gooder: DO IT! NOW!<br /><br />Your do-more-gooder<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1674067204534070354-768168819035576109?l=do-more-gooder.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Mr.E-flowerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02187894544011089430noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1674067204534070354.post-12837874848788691042008-11-13T15:47:00.000-08:002008-11-15T22:50:22.499-08:00Hi, I am very excited. I just booked hotels for our next family trip to Ojai and Joshua Tree. Ojai is very famous for me because Krishnamurti lived there. You don´t know who Krishnamurti is? I expected that and this is my do-more-gooder for today. Get to know Krishnamurt!Krishnamurti is the "Anti-Guru". His work is a clear contemporary statement of the fundamental human problem, together with an invitation to solve it in the only way in which it can be solved - by and for oneself. If you want to know more about him visit: <a href="http://www.kinfonet.org/">http://www.kinfonet.org/</a> or <a href="http://www.kfa.org/">http://www.kfa.org/</a>.<br />But that´s not all for today. We will visit the Joshua Tree. I only knew it from the so called U2 album. Today I learned, that U2 stayed in a little hotel called "Harmony" in the town 29palms when they worked on their album. <a href="http://www.harmonymotel.com/about.htm">http://www.harmonymotel.com/about.htm</a> I was temted to book the same hotel as my heros but - I have to find my own way and now I will stay in an oasis in the middle of the desert. Oasis? Reminds me on something else... If my music turns out to be in the middle of U2 and Oasis I will know why...<br />Let´s first find my mind in Ojai, than myself in the desert and then I hope to find my music...<br /><br />Your do-more-gooder<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1674067204534070354-1283787484878869104?l=do-more-gooder.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Mr.E-flowerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02187894544011089430noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1674067204534070354.post-91516629331498912062008-11-12T10:41:00.000-08:002008-11-13T11:01:53.468-08:00Economic downturn, tough times... GM and the other cows are getting thinner. Looks like we had seven good years and now we are in front of seven bad years. So we are very much forced to change our behaviour, be careful. Don´t spend your money for fast cars, luxury travel, eat the frozen pizza and stop visiting your favorite restaurants. Looks like a dark future. But will I loose my happiness? I guess no and I would like to share with you why. In such times I think back when I was a kid and had no money, or a student with a one room flat and my car was a bike. I was very happy and all I needed were my friends (girls included), good music, nature, books, sport... Sounds social and healthy? Great. These tough times will bring me back to the important things in life. Yes, yes, I also hear the melody coming up in my head: the best things in life are free! So do me a favour and do yourself a do-more-gooder: close your eyes and picture the moments, when you were happy. All these moments were free of charge and not one billion dollar could have made this moments more adorable.<br /><br />If you read about the crisis - relax! And get excited about the good times ahead!<br /><br />Your do-more-gooder<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1674067204534070354-9151662933149891206?l=do-more-gooder.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Mr.E-flowerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02187894544011089430noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1674067204534070354.post-17372229540322886922008-11-11T16:34:00.000-08:002008-11-13T10:58:39.498-08:00Hey, how is the saying? Today is the last day of my old life. Which naturally means it´s the first day of a new life. How often can you do this in your life? Does it mean that you die and will be born at the same time? Why not? New life, new game, new chance to make it better. Or GOODER. That´s why I startet this blog. Do-more-gooder is a cool title, don´t you think? I am convinced in everybody lurks a little do-gooder. But as you know, times are hard... It´s not enough to be a do-gooder. If you want to change the world you have to become a do-more-gooder. (We will wait a few years until we change this into "be a do-even-more-gooder". Oops, I am zoning out.. So my do-more-gooder for today is to start this blog.<br />From now on I will try to deliver one do-more-gooder a day.<br />Let´s put it this way: One do-more-gooder a day and the world is ok.<br /><br />Your do-more-gooder<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1674067204534070354-1737222954032288692?l=do-more-gooder.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Mr.E-flowerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02187894544011089430noreply@blogger.com0
