Quote of the Day - 9th August:

Fiscal decentralisation does not lead to higher economic
growth because economic growth is much more driven by
factors other than taxes and spending, e.g. increases in
technological progress and improved human capital.

Top bloke. Very funny comments. He was very well educated too. He owned a pub not far from me. His autobiography was a great read.

Now there's a thing !

The site I get my 'quotes' from doesn't list him as having died in 2012 [or at all] !

He didn't live to be as old as me, after all !

Sometimes people have unrealistic expectations for themselves and others.

If you're caught in the trap of unrealistic expectations, you will always feel defeated.

When you're unhappy with something about yourself or in someone else, look at your expectations, and make sure they're realistic.

Perfection is an illusion. Don't hold yourself or others to a standard that doesn't exist. It isn't fair to you or to them. You, and they, deserve peace and love. ~ Kate Rossi Stuart ~

Quote of the Day - 11th August:

If you love what you do and are willing to do what it takes, it's within your reach.
And it'll be worth every minute you spend alone at night, thinking and thinking
about what it is you want to design or build. It'll be worth it, I promise
.
