Success is the ability to go from failure to failure without losing your enthusiasm.

You're very welcome Philippe - sometimes we just have to 'chill' for awhile and then get back at it. Glad to see you're back!

Irene, thanks for taking the time to answer my question, it's very kind of you. How life repeats itself sometimes, IO just went through something similar, I hadn't been online much for the past 2 months, it was soul searching time

Thanks Paula, looking at things as an outsider as opposed to living it and feeling it certainly helps!

I think looking at things from another perspective is a big part to find solutions for many problems. In real life and on-line life. Sometimes not possible right away; sometimes one needs to take some distance first for a while.

Thanks Paula - like I did when I added my link to this comment!!!

Hi philippe - thanks for your question. I 'hit the wall' so to speak a few months ago and didn't really know what to do. What I chose to do was to sit with it for awhile and then take a break. From somewhere? came the inspiration to get back at it again with a different prospective. Don't know how that happened but it worked for me. Now i spend less, but more productive time online.

Irene, how do you get back your enthusiasm in challenging times?

Very true. From failures you can learn what does not work

Sorry re link, couldn't find a way to delete it. won't happen again!!!
