I wrote this nearly 3 years ago. Nothing has changed. I’ve done nothing about it. I’m in the same shit situation as I was then.
Except maybe now I get paid a little more at work.
What does it take for someone to finally grab life by its arse and start making changes? I watched the film `Wanted` the other night – the theme of which is just that. Some guy, living a meaningless life and things eventually change. OK, so it’s because he’s apparently son of some legendary assassin – right – but ignore that and look at the bigger thing for a second and it helps with some perspective.
The only person you’re kidding, is yourself. YOU KNOW the issues. Yet you mislead yourself. How pathetic is that?
The only way things will change is when you make it happen.
So do it. Now.
you need to put yourself out there. you take a risk. maybe it’ll pay off.
most of the time it won’t, but at least you tried. hey, it’s better to try and fail, than to not try at all.
so i end up back at square 1. start again. from the beginning.
but new starts are a good thing.
I recently posted about how it was impossible to access the iTunes Store if you were in one of the Channel Islands such as Guernsey or Jersey. Specifically, when you were updating your account details, it used to be possible to enter your postcode in lower case, or, enter a valid e.g., UK mainland postcode to get around it. This stopped working and all workarounds were essentially dead – the only explanation was that iTunes now uses some geographic IP address matching to check you were physically where you say you were. So it seemed like there was no way around it.
However, I’ve found a way around it.
