O 2012, 2012! Wherefore art thou 2012?

Bet you didn’t think William Shakespeare (1564-1616) could help you out in 2012, didja? Well, he can, if you pay careful attention here. Ta. In Act II. Scene II of ‘Romeo and Juliet’, Juliet cries out in anguish… ‘O Romeo, Romeo! Wherefore art thou Romeo?’

Mere mortals often confuse this call as, she asking him, where the heck he is? The discerning achievers correctly interpret her message thus… ‘Romeo, quite frankly, where are you really at? So, my question to you is similar. Where are you really at, right now?

Those same mere mortals believe that those nice Mayan folks predicted that the world will end on December 21 2012. But, the discerning achievers know that, it is an approximate date, signalling the end of one era, and the beginning of another. Very yawny news really!

Besides, I will be doing last-minute Christmas shopping on that day, because I am a last-minute shopper. This is mainly because, like most of us, I never do early Christmas shopping. Here is my first challenge to me and you: What is your personal theme for 2012?

Mine is… I CAN UNTIL I CAN’T! This has been my mantra, since I was a small boy. It works! I will use it, to spearhead my next era, which I have called ‘The Terrific Triennium (2012-2014)’. My second challenge to you is: When will your next personal era, begin and end? Or do you drift?

My third challenge to us, is a little more involved. It is this: What exactly is my life like, now? Is my current ‘space’ good, OK or bad? Regardless of your choice, in a fast-moving, techno-rampant world, you have to make changes. But will you? The discerning achievers will. They always do.

I use the term ‘discerning’, because being ‘intelligent’ is different from being ‘clever’. We all know some very bright and intelligent ‘idiots’, n’cest pas? I cover this ‘don’t wanna change’ phenomenon in the next issue of my weekly newsletter, ‘Billboard’. Discerning achievers worldwide, read it.
