Inspiration

Last year I went to a Google conference where a guy called Ed Stafford was a guest speaker. As part of the gifts all attendees got was his book - Walking The Amazon which I started reading on my recent vaycay.
It's an amazing book by a truly inspirational guy.

"All I needed to do was give my brain positive stimulus and the expedition was easy. All my problems now came from an isolated, bored, stagnant brain. A lazy, bored brain latches on to negativity and problems and exaggerates them until they become out of perspective and all-consuming. That happened to me a lot if I didn't actively make the effort to keep myself positive." Ed Stafford, Walking The Amazon.
