Hey Everyone,
I’m not sure what to say other than that there has been so many comments, supportive emails, messages of best wishes, since I declared my departure, and that I was staggered, amazed and never realized that little old me (or should that be young could have possibly produce and caused such an impact on some.
Like I mentioned on Gary’s blog, I admit I was basically a fool, young, impatient, lack of long term vision, did not plan enough or properly, got completely sidetracked, did not focus hard enough and work my way on seeing the light at the end of the tunnel and reflect back on it.
I am awfully sorry to have confused you all. You are all been a wonderful, great, inspiring, supportive group of guys and gals who deserve every success in the world has to offer and more, that includes admiration, respect, riches, good health and may you all achieve the dream you want and more.
In fact, I would also like to take this opportunity to thanks those who have commented because, your comments has caused me to reflect on true core value of what I actually want, what I want to focus on instead, what I want to be associated with and to evaluate my actions and what I express more, before I commit myself to anything, and to also not be hindered by cynic factors and thoughts which have been clouding my actions, decisions and judgment.
For the past (almost) 3 month or so, it has been a roller coaster journey ride through the emotions and self discovery of my self and my life. Unfortunately I didn’t take in account of rest, relaxation, and reflection which would have helped balanced out the equation.
It’s now time to make things better and so I’m soon getting a change of scenery which I believe is critical for myself. I will now venture off and continue with my eBay business, and hopefully continue to make videos as well in my spare time.
I will also be reading books and watching movies that will hopefully inspire myself, take nature walks and drives, and listen to soothing music and turn off my mobile phone and limit the amount of time I spend on email, in the aim that I will slowly but surely, regain the zest for life and establish critical life goal posts.
If you ever have any video queries etc… please remember I’m still the video guy, so please do not hesitate to contact me.
All the best
Nigel

Hi, Nigel,
Nature walks and drives, and music sound like great ideas.
You will always have my support.
All the best,

Hi, Nigel
I’m sure all of us wish you well in your ‘rest and recreation’ period, and prosperity in your business endeavours.
You should’t feel bad about causing an earthquake!
Your actions were a catalyst, not a cause, and I think far more good than bad has resulted.
I’m glad all this has put you more in touch with yourself. Do stay in touch with the community. Actually, you’ve made yourself such a part of it that I don’t think you’ve got much choice…
“you can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave.”
All the best,
James
Nigel,
Over at Gary’s blog you asked what you did to help. You got a great video posted and a nice discussion started, that’s what.
As you indicated above, our actions affect others. Sometimes we get the effects we want and other times we don’t – even when trying.
You can go through what you need to go through to figure out what you are doing, this is a natural although not necessarily un-messy thing to do. When I first commented about your leaving, it was just to bring up that this group may still be able to provide many of us a lot of value even as we move on to our own individual areas of business activity. Having a place where we can ask questions and get somne help is a very valuable thing.
Life is a big lesson, so the more one can learn from everything that they do the better their life will be. And the faster we learn the faster we move forward. You are doing ther right thing in assessing what you are doing and making alterations. Many people reamain stuck in one place for years, a lifetime!
So, keep on experimenting, thinking, trying and stumbling – you’re doing it right – you are moving forward. The path is not always 100% clear to us. Many times we must move into a new place in order to be able to ‘see’ something new, or find another clue to the puzzle our inner drive is pushing us towards.
The key is to constantly pay attention and analyzing what you are doing and thinking. Making adjustments and trying again. Once you become deaf to your thoughts and feelings you stagnate.
Keep on keeping on man!

Hi Nigel,
Thanks for your comment on my blog sometime ago.
At first I didn’t want to drop by fearing my eyes will cover with tears again but the temptation was too great. As I read this post ,my eyes are in tears again. You are officially going to lay off I hope will be temporary.
I wish you all the best and you will always have my support.
Take care my friend.
Jeffrey
