I'm not sure if I know where I am, or where I'm heading to, what to do next, how to approach the near/immediate future in order to get to the place where the goals I was speaking of yesterday are.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I wish I could exchange the furniture in my house for any other pieces I desire. Example. Swap my couch for any other couch of my liking. Swap an oven for some amazing art. Swap my bedside table for two matching new ones. Regardless of price, style, era, make. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I want a house, mind and wardrobe makeover. Maybe if I revamp my belongings and threads, everything will seem clearer up between my ears. But then I can't do that (to the extent that I would like to) without ample money at my disposal. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Now I need a way to make the money that I require. I could do that through the direction that I want to move my career into, but I'm not there yet, and not even really on the way. I do love the environment that I'm working in at the moment, and the opportunities that it brings along with it, but at the same time, I'd also like to be gaining different knowledge and skills that I'm unable to achieve through my current workplace.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I wish there was a way I could double the time in each day so that I could continue to work where I am, and make money and gain knowledge that way AND offer my time to another place where I could gain the extra bits that I need in order to come nearer to my goals (most probably with minimal pay, if any).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So there's my catch 22.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Want to achieve my goals, need money to do that, want to learn skills necessary to achieve my goals, but won't make money that way. Could keep making money the way that I am, but won't achieve the goals entirely.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Help?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a target="_blank"  href="http://www.amazon.com/Etcetera-Creating-Beautiful-Interiors-Things/dp/174196556X?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=piasala-20&amp;link_code=btl&amp;camp=213689&amp;creative=392969"&gt;Etcetera: Creating Beautiful Interiors with the Things You Love&lt;/a&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=piasala-20&amp;l=btl&amp;camp=213689&amp;creative=392969&amp;o=1&amp;a=174196556X" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important; padding: 0px !important" /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8642211334323798534-8401368122693063554?l=piasala.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://piasala.blogspot.com/feeds/8401368122693063554/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://piasala.blogspot.com/2010/06/slight-mental-breakdown.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8642211334323798534/posts/default/8401368122693063554'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8642211334323798534/posts/default/8401368122693063554'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://piasala.blogspot.com/2010/06/slight-mental-breakdown.html' title='Slight mental breakdown.'/><author><name>© piasala 2008-2010</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03250544563084631341</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Bb3ptWRyUac/S9TrhOKqOII/AAAAAAAAAEc/jaSgTWWOA3s/S220/piasalaheader_4x4cm.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8642211334323798534.post-6150554426201950150</id><published>2010-05-31T10:13:00.006+10:00</published><updated>2010-06-01T21:13:44.517+10:00</updated><title type='text'>Goals and Souls.</title><content type='html'>I spent some time thinking about achieving goals.

I think I'm getting there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are some new words...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;Rounding the following up in an instant&lt;br /&gt;is likened to using a straight-ended instrument.&lt;br /&gt;I don't know when actual comes into now&lt;br /&gt;but the feeling is brewing and turning me round.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It seems like the future is reaching far back&lt;br /&gt;and yanking me forward to launch it's attack&lt;br /&gt;I'm hoping the outcome is upward instead,&lt;br /&gt;for upsides make downward feel worse than the dread.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To-ing and fro-ing in mindless relations,&lt;br /&gt;breaking and mending my false instigations.&lt;br /&gt;Grip onto bending the pole into loops&lt;br /&gt;and standing on waves&lt;br /&gt;and drifting through hoops.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They won't know the answers,&lt;br /&gt;those men in the mind,&lt;br /&gt;they speak to me in riddles&lt;br /&gt;while leaving behind&lt;br /&gt;the valuable writings&lt;br /&gt;from scholars gone by&lt;br /&gt;who did know and try to be&lt;br /&gt;open inside.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bring on the focus and listen intently&lt;br /&gt;learn from the best and roll in a Bentley.&lt;br /&gt;Do all the things you are striving to find&lt;br /&gt;forget any snakes that will leave you behind.&lt;br /&gt;Skip to the ladders and lift yourself up,&lt;br /&gt;So at ends you will find yourself holding the cup.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a target="_blank"  href="http://www.amazon.com/Interior-Design-Decoration-Stanley-Abercrombie/dp/0131944045?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=piasala-20&amp;link_code=btl&amp;camp=213689&amp;creative=392969"&gt;Interior Design and Decoration&lt;/a&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=piasala-20&amp;l=btl&amp;camp=213689&amp;creative=392969&amp;o=1&amp;a=0131944045" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important;

It was quite overwhelming, with ALOT of interesting things to see, but one stand in particular, I cannot stop telling people about!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Eurowalls has introduced the 'Stone Range' of wallpaper. This is like nothing I've ever seen before, and really really excites me! It's a German product which is thin and flexible and adheres to walls, columns, ledges, etc – just like wallpaper.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But, wait for it, it looks and feels like genuine stone! It comes in sandstone, slate, travertine and concrete.

This urge, mind you, came from nowhere.&lt;br /&gt;I have not been a writer all my life.
