I am thinking of breaking the rules and getting a phone! I want one with a really good video camera (1080hd), fits in my hand so I can type with my thumb. Not locked so I can use local SIM cards. Any suggestions?

Ever think of going to #Colombia? I am so proud of this new #Udemy course which I produced. Even if you never go, it is worth it to see the sights I filmed in #Medellin. https://ift.tt/2NrDuxp

What does it mean when you don’t want the fancy car, the huge house, the Armani suits, 5 star hotels, but you want clean air, clean water, peace, organic food and the top MacBook Pro? 😆

“maybe. But I always believe problems start at home. Lack of respect and responsibility is a learned behavior that starts at birth. Social media encourages conflict. But parents have already taught their children that it’s normal long before a phone comes into the picture.” I read this comment. My first thought was, “how do you know the parents are wrong?” “Starts at birth?” Like when the doctor slapped you? Bwaaaa, hey, doctor, that wasn’t nice! You show me more respect.... bwaaaah.... Does social media encourage conflict? I am sure the Middle East predated FB

Paper straws, that replaced plastic ones here, are great... until you put them in water... because, like, they’re PAPER! #RememberDeforestation?

Scott's Soliloquy: It's lazy Sunday morning. I read. I thought about stuff. I am grateful to all my 'active' Facebook friends. They seem to post thought provoking stuff, and I often have fun with our interactions, even if it is just seeing the laughing emoticon, so I know I put a smile on a smile 10,000 miles away. Marc Mawhinney posted today about choosing between lots of money and free travel. I started thinking about being home and deep down, I don't really want to go, certainly not to stay long term. As I was thinking about the choice, Marc put out, I felt deeply that there were so many places I deeply desire to go to and many places that I visited in the past 18 months that I desire to return to. I have a few people asking me about traveling long term. Fear and limiting beliefs hold them back. Let me share a limiting belief I have and how I went thru the limiting belief to the other side, by actually doing what my limiting belief was. :) Most people teach that you should change your limiting beliefs. In my case, I just did it. When I started traveling I heard about a site called Trusted House Sitters where you can apply to look after someone’s home while they go away on vacation or a trip. I was in Europe and applied about 30 times. Had one response in South Africa who decided to go with someone else. How disappointing... As I analyzed the results, I realized I did not have a reputation. I was new on the site. No reviews. People do not just leave their homes to anyone. The nightmare, of course, is coming home and finding the house wrecked. My conclusion then was that I should have done 5 or 6 short house sits in my home town. Then with a good reputation, applied for housesits everywhere I wanted to go. Thus for a year and a half, I used AirBNB, Booking and Workaway volunteer opportunities to supply my accommodations. Now that I am returning home, I applied for some house sits. And to my surprise, I have three confirmed and another two pending. One rejection, because a family member volunteered to look after their house, but they want to keep in touch for the next trip. So my belief that I had to house sit at home first came true. But, I think, this is one of those cases where the facts can build a case that supports your belief, and they can just as easily build a different case that had nothing to do with my beliefs. On AirBNB and Workaway, hosts can leave feedback on their guests (in other words, me!). Both sites now have 18 months of glowing reviews from my stays. When I applied on Trusted House Sitters, I mentioned that I was new to the site and to refer to AirBNB and Workaway for my reviews and left links. I leveraged what I did in those sites to get what I wanted in another. I also think that because I believed I could get house sits in my hometown and nearby, I had far more confidence than I did 18 months earlier and that came out in my applications. I am excited about my future travels because I will have a third arrow in my travel quiver that adds spice to my journeys. Summary: 1) Scott’s limiting belief: Has to successfully apply for House Sits in Vancouver before he can apply elsewhere. 2) Gets 3 house sits easily. 3) Now thinks he can get them anywhere. 4) Never occurred to him to apply elsewhere before he got the hometown house sits… I am not saying my Belief was correct. Only that it controlled subconsciously my actions. now that it has come true, it is no longer limiting. If you have limiting beliefs in your life, can you make it come true and is that the way to the other side and converting it from being limiting to being life expanding?
