The Death of Recycling: Why You Need To Create

When you hear the word recycling what comes to mind? The color green? Global warming? Captain planet? Perhaps you’re one of the millions of people who is committed to making the world more environmentally sound.

While the term recycling is seen by many in only a positive light, what if I were to tell you there is a dark side of recycling? A type of recycling that does more harm than good. Would you believe me? The dark side of recycling has nothing to do with the environment but rather has to do with the recycling of ideas.

Celebrate Your Success

I recently received an email from one of our readers. The email went on to list an admittedly impressive number of goals he was able to accomplish over the last year or so. He received a 4.0 GPA in his first semester of college, lost 14 kg, began running 3 days a week, and cut down on his excessive gaming. Because I’m also freshman in college this year, the list made me smile and I couldn’t help but feel great for him.

But there was one problem: Despite his impressive accomplishments, the tone of his email was somber and sad, because like many, he wrestled with the endless cycle with self improvement. Even though he reached all his goals he was empty on the inside.

How To Reach Your Planet B

I recently had the amazing opportunity to travel to Las Vegas to attend Steve Pavlina’s Conscious Growth Workshop. Spending a weekend with a 100 people who were passionate about growth was a fantastic experience. Those who have read Steve’s blog know that he can be a bit controversial at times, however I felt the workshop helped me tremendously in terms of my own growth and self development.

I’d like to share with you an analogy that Steve explained during the workshop that helps clarify both your current situation and the place in life that you would like to be.

It’s Time for a New Face, and a New Journey

I’ve been wondering how to write this post for almost three months now. There is something important that I want to say to you all, but I also want to say “Hey, stay, keep reading” after I’ve said it, because I have a lot of things I want to explain. I try not to ramble in my posts, so I’ll just come out and say it: I’m no longer the owner of PluginID.

Don’t be too alarmed though; I haven’t owned the site for three months, and not much has changed around here. A product has been launched, posts have been written and I’m still far too active on Twitter.

Working On The Road? Here’s What You Need to Know

I’m on my 8th week in Amsterdam right now with ten days left before I move on to my next destination. Very recently I decided that Thailand will no longer be my next stop and instead I will continue travelling through Europe. Right now, the countries on my list to visit are: France, Sweden, Czech Republic, Italy and Belgium.

The plan is to go to a number of different countries for four nights each. This way we’ll get to see most of Europe in a short space of time and have a month which is a non-stop adventure. At the end of this month I will reveal where I’m going and what I’m doing after the euro-trip. You’re in for a surprise.
