If you know me well, you have probably heard me speak of wisdom. Not because I think I have loads of the stuff, as that is not the case. The best way to describe my desire is that I feel a craving for it as if it was just like food. To me it is almost tangible, thick or made up of proteins like a piece of porterhouse steak. I do wholeheartedly believe that it is this desire that has been put inside me, that has caused all that I have. Not hard work or determination.
In some people I come into contact with, it oozes out of their pores. You will often find me curled up at their feet (either via books or blog post)every chance I get.
Uncontrollably the opposite occurs too. If I happen across a person who continues to make un-wise decisions, I have the urge to expel them faster the fast. As if I could make my old mistakes again if I stand too close. They appear as if that have gone sour and are beginning to decompose. In the same way knowledge festers if not used correctly.
So in 2011 that is what I will be doing more of in my business and my life. Trying to pick up every morsel from the edge of the plate.

I love this post.
I also believe that it’s desire to do A. B or C that gets me (or others) to get to a successful destination. Then again, it’s easy to work hard for the things you have a desire for. We have a word in Spanish that is a mix between ‘hard work’ and ‘stubborness’ that sums up that action, in my humble opinion.
And what a great proposal for 2011, they say that you’re a reflection of the people in your life – keep the great ones!
Great post Natalie and here’s to a happy & successful 2011!
Mariella – tell us what the word is?!
I agree, Mariella, we want the word!
Great post Natalie. Have you got Dave Martin’s resources?
No I don’t have his resources Juliet. I missed his Australia visit too!
No one could ever say that you do not lead those around you closer to wisdom, lift them with inspiration or challenge them with their unfulfilled potential! You are a marvel!
Thanks Amelia but you should know better! You know me in real life!
