A Ship is Safe in the Harbor Aug 24

, I haven't been traveling for about five months now and I'm really starting to get itchy feet.

There's a saying…"The ship is safe in the harbor..but that's not what it was meant for"

Sure we can be safe and comfortable…but is that living? Maybe it's existing, but , I believe that's not really living. I'd rather go out in a blast than sit comfortably reliving past memories. My mother, who is 82, tells me that all she has is memories. I want to MAKE memories, not just relive memories.

Enough musing. Gotta make plans.

Adventuring in the Philippines! Feb 25

Well I have been here in the Philippines about three weeks now and am learning so much. I have been taking a lot of videos, pictures and notes for an upcoming Documentary called "Expats in the Philippines." It will give you valuable information on what it's like for a foreigner to live in the Philippines. Meanwhile, I have been uploading quite a few vids on YouTube. If you haven't subscribed to my video channel, do so now, so you will be the first to know when I upload a new video.

Subscribe to Bud Brown's YouTube Videos here.

I'm also having fun playing jokes on the expats here. It's the ol' Peanut Brittle Joke! Got em good!

Adventure Beckens! Sep 15

Well, I’ve got the car up for sale, packing my bags and am going on another adventure. I’m gonna try my hand at teaching English in Taiwan. My dear wife, says I can go with her blessings, but she wants to stay put here in California. I’ve got wanderlust so bad I can’t hardly stand it. The plan is to sell the car to pay off the last of my debts, then I’ll be free to travel and teach, which are my passions. I’ll keep you informed.

Subliminal Power! May 27

 I’m a big fan of self-improvement books and courses. I think each of us owes it to ourselves to become all that we can be.

But reading a book or following a course is so time-consuming. Sometimes I feel that there are so many aspects of my life I want to improve I’ll be an old man before I’ve even changed half of them!

That’s why I was delighted to discover Bradley Thomson and his incredible ‘Subliminal Power’ website 

subliminalpower Subliminal Power!Bradley’s Subliminal Power tool lets you achieve all that you want to achieve in a fraction of the time and with absolutely NO effort whatsoever! It’s a little tool that runs in the background on your PC, making carefully constructed ‘suggestions’ to your subconscious while you get on with your work. It’s the mental equivalent of those abdominal exercisers that let you do 3,000 press ups while sitting in a chair!

With Bradley’s technology you can raise your IQ to genius level, develop astonishing powers of concentration and recall, become a ‘natural’ salesperson or public speaker and even ‘command’ your body to lose weight. You can use subliminal messaging to be who YOU want to be with absolutely NO effort on your behalf!

It’s far more powerful than hypnosis … in fact, I’d go so far as to say it’s the most powerful tool for self-empowerment there is.

Check  it out!
