Your Own Personal Development Journey
Copyright (c) 2010 Willie Horton
Since I started working for myself in the area of personal development in January 1996, I have come across many, many people who yearn for a better life, a more balanced life, people who want for more out of life. I've met lots of people who have bought all the books - purchased their atlas or roadmap, so to speak - but who are not prepared to take each step along the journey.
Of course, there are some that will tell you that you don't need to take the journey - if you're standing at "A", you simply visualize yourself at "Z" and you're there! People like Rhonda Byrne who put together the bestselling "The Secret" and now another bestseller that's running off the shelves "The Power". I say put together because these books are a mish-mash of concepts, half-baked ideas, quotes and, sometimes, misquotes - and the overall packaging of the concept - see yourself there and you're there - is just too tantalizing for vulnerable souls. And, at one time or another in our lives, we're all vulnerable souls.
Many years ago, when I worked in life assurance in Ireland, I used to travel the length and breadth of Ireland speaking at seminars. My mother used to say to me that, "when you travel to Cork (from Dublin) your wheels have to travel every single inch of the journey - it's a long road". And, in just the same way, if you're interested in getting more out of life, it is a journey - a long and winding road - probably without a destination.
And you have to travel each inch of the road. The road is made up of years, months, weeks, days, minutes and moments - including this moment. Your life is lived in moments - in heres and nows - and the only way that you can achieve a better life, a more balanced life, the only way that you can get all there really and truly is to get out of life is to turn up to each moment, to take each step, not to sit back and wait for something to happen but to make something happen by doing what you have to do to the very best of your ability.
And, believe it or not, that's a bridge too far for most people - they want something for nothing! But, in life, you get out what you put in, you reap what you sow, what goes around comes around. You've got to invest in yourself, in your life. And what galls me is that that investment process is so simple - it simply demands that we turn up, mind, body and soul, to each moment - one moment at a time - then you will find yourself moving effortlessly along that long and winding road.
I need, however, to explain what turning up actually means because it is a concept totally foreign to the normal muddled mind. The only place and time that you can be is here and now. Yet, we're hamstrung by mental hard-wiring that sees to it that our subconscious mind almost exclusively lives in the past, wallowing in what psychologists call our "stored knowledge" - what you and I call our baggage, the voices in our head or our conditioning. Whilst this side-show is going on, our conscious mind is constantly being distracted by irrelevant nonsense or, more damagingly, future negative thoughts - what you and I might call worry - or what I might describe as investing your energy in something that you don't want to happen (still trying to figure out the sense in that - I suspect there is none!). The result of all this is that we almost never turn up to the here and now - it's just the way we're built.
But success, happiness, peace of mind and all the wonderful things that people who read self improvement books yearn for can only be achieved by being present in the here and now and, n fact, are e only to be found in the here and now. If you're fully present, having presence, you become immensely effective and your presence rubs off on those around you. If you're fully present, you become more alert to the opportunities of the moment and, in addition, through your impressive presence, you encourage those around you to respond - in this way you actually begin to create new opportunities yourself. But, most importantly, if you're fully present, your mind no longer pays credence to your limiting self-beliefs - you're suddenly someone other than who you believed yourself to be - you're suddenly liberated from your thought to be the real, impressive, successful and happy you.
So, you actually can get from A to Z in one step - but it's a step that you have to keep taking - and it's a step that leads you on a wonderful journey - not one that leads you to some delusional land of milk and honey - but to the wonderful reality and joy of life lived in the present moment.

The Atlas of Wintering Birds in Britain and Ireland $65 This companion volume to The Atlas of Breeding Birds of Britain and Ireland is derived from surveys of birds present in Britain and Ireland during the three winters, 1981/82, 1982/83 and 1983/84. The surveys were organised by the British Trust for Ornithology and the Irish Wildbird Conservancy, as were the earlier breeding birds surveys. The Winter Atlas maps 200 species, 192 of which have full-page two-colour maps faced by a page of text. The texts (written by over 100 specialists) comment on the survey results, the species generally and the distribution and abundance as mapped. In addition there are introductory chapters on the maps, the weather in the three winters, bird patterns and movements; and appendices describing the planning, organisation, field methods, and processing of the survey data from record cards to computer output and maps. A team of 23 artists, led by Robert Gillmor, has provided the line drawings which head the species accounts. This is a print-on-demand edition of the Atlas. It is a black and white reproduction of the original two-colour book. |

Atlas of the Deep-Water Seabed: Ireland $129 Presented in an accessible, user-friendly format, this atlas sets out all the major features revealed during one of the largest ever deep-sea mapping campaigns. A unique insight into the morphology of the seabed along the continental margin of the North-East Atlantic, it reveals for the first time many features that have hitherto been hidden beneath the waves. It is organised both thematically and by region, with the sea floor and its biological hotspots - areas of high biodiversity such as seamounts - shown at a resolution not possible before. The atlas presents everything from submarine canyons to coral carbonate mounds, using digital terrain models generated from multibeam data and photographs taken from unmanned deep-water vehicles (ROVs). The full-colour imagery includes digital three-dimensional seabed maps as well as the photographs, with concise text descriptions and topic boxes used to highlight and explain the geological, biological and hydrographical features, in addition to their importance and context in the deep-sea realm. Alongside the wealth of background information and topic boxes on special highlights, extensive on-line resources link the reader to full data sets and GIS locations, while suggestions for further reading point to ongoing research highlights. This is a fascinating resource that will be of use to anyone involved in off-shore and underwater activities, whether scientific or commercial. |

The Historical Atlas of Breeding Birds in Britain and Ireland 1875-1900 $65 The landscape of Britain has been irreversibly changed over the last century. Modern agriculture, urban expansion, industry and transport have all left their mark, altering the face of the countryside forever. Shifting with the changing scene, the fortunes of Britain and Ireland's bird populations have fluctuated dramatically over the years. As current farming practices have evolved, the natural habitats and breeding patterns of many species have been disrupted. Urban and industrial growth has brought with it the pressures of new land use, pesticides, pollution and human interference. The activities of sportsmen, collectors and farmers have also taken their toll over the years. The new Poyser title The Historical Atlas of Breeding Birds in Britain and Ireland 1875-1900 is a fascinating book resulting form years of meticulous research by the author, Simon Holloway, who provides an absorbing account of the distribution changes of Britain and Ireland's birds over the last quarter of a century. Large colour distribution maps and their accompanying text paint a species-by-species picture of a period which completely transformed the landscape of this country. It is, says Natural World magazine, "a classic case of 'why did no one write this book before?'...The experienced birder, using a knowledge of species requirements, can only marvel at what the long-vanished landscapes were then like." Birdwatch praises Simon Holloway's achievement, saying: "This book brings together so much information from disparate sources, and its status maps present such a clear picture of our late Victorian avifauna, that it should take its place beside the BTO atlases on the bookshelf." While Birdwatching adds: "If you are interested in the historical side of birds and their populations this book will be an endless source of fascination." As with all Poyser publications, the attention to detail, the lovingly produced illustrations and the sheer breadth of knowledge demonstrated by the autho. |
