Just an interesting link - with some key points about motivation. Sure, we may well know a lot of these, but it pays to be reminded occasionally
http://www.motivation-tools.com/elements/seven_rules.htm
In particular - I liked this one
#7 Take risk. Failure and bouncing back are elements of motivation. Failure is a learning tool. No one has ever succeeded at anything worthwhile without a string of failures.

Just saw this interesting article in the online version of the San Francisco Chronicle
http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/c/a/2006/05/09/MNGSVIO7NG1.DTL
apparently:
California took in a record $11.3 billion in personal income tax receipts in April, $4.3 billion more than it collected last April. It’s almost certain that a significant chunk of April’s haul came from Google employees — perhaps one-eighth or more of the tax receipt gain.
Awesome!
But then most things related to Google are Awesome!

came across this web page in my surfing today - an interesting collection of PDF books - on mainly self improvement topics
To The Next Level
Personal favourites are:
Acres of diamonds - Russell H. Conwell
and
Psycho Cybernetics - Maxwell Maltz
I cannot be sure that whoever put up this web site actually has the “rights” to distribute this material - and for that reason I am reluctant to give it a 100% endorsement. That said, there is no doubt, most of the material is EXCELLENT
another quote from the site:
“Success often comes to those who dare to act. It seldom goes to the timid who are ever afraid of the consequences ”
Jawaharlal Nehru
