For me, it was looking down the tunnel of life... and just feeling absolute despair. So many people are focussed on the nitty gritty of day today issues. If for a moment they lifted their eyes and looked at the effect their choices have on their life ten, twenty years later, they would certainly start chasing their dreams. I'm starting my business. I'm going to work hard and make something of it. I derive so much more purpose out of that than lining the pockets of a bunch of shareholders. Mat. You’re a good blogger Pete.
