... giant TREE, giant SEEDS, giant GROWTH..
Those of you who have been with me for a while or read my book will know one of my favorite Latin sayings "Nanos Gigantium Humeris Insidentes" which means "Standing On The Shoulders Of Giants". It was a saying used by Robert Of SomewhereOrOther (?) a long long time ago (?). Anyway what the term means is that we can see further by standing on the shoulders of giants. Sir Isaac Newton referred to it as well when he said we can see further not because the giants are taller or can see a great distance because they are so big, but because by using their great stature we can add to our own. So......
Put simply, in my case I have been reading up on the giants. Those that have gone before me presented me with the information I need to see further than they did, simply because they allow me to add to their stature. Their 'stature' is the knowledge and wisdom they have shared with me in the area of my re-invention which is writing, poetry, song writing and singing, website and BLOG thingies and of course all and everything related to Social Media and Entrepreneurship. I am creating my STORY backwards and using the giants to teach me the game and the rules I have to play by.

"I'm gunna be a GIANT one day!"
And so far so good. I have created the foundation for my story through national television and other media. Now for the next step which is the songs. This will create the GLOBAL exposure. BLOG thingie is growing faster than I expected and with the new exposure from the songs it should go viral sometime later this year. I am also mindful of the attention all of this will bring from being in the forefront of the media so I have been preparing for the media frenzy so that I can use it to my advantage better than I did back in August. That was OK but in hindsight I could have driven it harder to suck out a bit more exposure. But now I have the giants of the media to help me promote my story. So in all everything is moving forward nicely. Thanks to the giants I will get to my final destination. There have been lots of huuuuge challenges on the way. The NEGOBS have been unrelenting but have never been able to push me anywhere near FAILURE. My dream has already manifested in my MIND. I cannot be stopped. It is what it is. The STEPS continue, one at a time. Only small STEPS but each one bringing me that little bit closer to my DREAM. The small steps take a long time to advance any great distance but because I have been standing on their shoulders, those small steps are now becoming GIANT STEPS. OhK...........

While you are on my Journey with me, you should also be learning while watching me. Because nobody has been silly enough to do something like I am doing and telling my STORY backwards, I am now presenting you with huuuuge opportunities. I am indeed showing you that creating THAT something you have always wanted to, IS POSSIBLE. You have Libraries and the internet, just like me. You have the GIANTS, and so you can SEE further because your stature adds to theirs. Even if you are deliriously joyful and happy in your home, business and personal life I KNOW there is something you have always wondered about. Something you believe you could do but fear, or time, or security, or something is stopping you. And that's soooo coooool but.........tick...tick...tick...tick...
You don't have to prove anything to anybody but MSOT has these gifts he wants you to use! As my story gains momentum you will find it 'interesting' to say the least and I hope you have fun watching. But i have already made significant headway and you are along for the ride. As I complete each STEP you BENEFIT from watching me. You are learning. You are 'standing on MY shoulders'. You can be taking......
......GIANT STEPS......
