Smile Hello everyone! =)

Hi! I am new in here, so I would like to introduce myself. My name is Dimitry, I am 17. I live in England (UK), though my native country is Latvia. English is my second language (so I am here to practice it too ) I've been interested in personal development from age of 15 I guess. Recently I found Steve Pavlina's articles on personal development. I found Steve Pavlina the most inspirational author I have ever read so far. I followed his tips on how to become an early riser...and now I get up at 5am feeling great and full of energy! Having realised that if only changing my sleep patterns can make my life better I became even more motivated to grow, activate my unrealised potential! I have not participated in any forum discussions yet, so this is my first experience participating in discussions. I am sure that I will enjoy it. Well, that's a bit about myself. Thank you!

Hello Dan Linehan! =)

To be honest, I have not clearly defined my goals for the year 2008! Currently, I am kind of 'lost'. I cannot really find what are my true interests, passions and I have no idea what I want to do in near future. My life at the moment is just OK which is boring for me. I want to be active, but something holds me back. That's why I have joined this forum, started to read Steve's blogs, I want to find some suggestions on what to do. So, probably, one of my goals for 2008 is to clarify for my self what I want from my life and everything else will follow.

Definitely. The most inspiring thing, for me, would be steve's first pod-cast. Most articles and blog posts are real gems. Just click a category that interests you and you'll find enough for whole afternoon .

Also check out the books section. Lots of good recommendations.
