Stephen Covey said, "All things are created twice. There's a mental or first creation, and a physical or second creation of all things. You have to make sure that the blueprint, the first creation, is really what you want, that you've thought everything through. Then you put it into bricks and mortar. Each day you go to the construction shed and pull out the blueprint to get marching orders for the day. You begin with the end in mind." So keep dreaming. Modify as needed, and turn it into reality. <em>Brett Legree's last blog post..<a href='http://brettlegree.wordpress.com/2008/02/21/make-one-day-today/' rel="nofollow">make "one day", today</a></em> @ Terry – that is so dead-on, “I dream therefore I am”.

You are welcome to celebrate concurrently with us up here in Canada, of course the pagan holidays would be reversed as you are in Oz. The main thing is to keep the dream alive (I never thought I'd do it, but my wife and I went to New Zealand last year for two weeks - almost made it to your place!) Just keep dreaming, and then plan to achieve the dream - you will get there. <em>Brett Legree's last blog post..<a href='http://brettlegree.wordpress.com/2008/02/21/make-one-day-today/' rel="nofollow">make "one day", today</a></em> @ Monika – I hear you, currently working on that whole earning the big bucks thing / location independent.
