that elusive secret to their own success. Often the so- called 'secret' is sitting right under their very nose. Let's face it, unless you're naturally gifted, making a success of anything involves a whole lot of hard work. A lot of the time, the work we're faced with is often boring and monotonous. Wouldn't it be great if it were fun? Ding, dong! Are the lights starting to flash, and bells starting to sound inside your head yet? I'm tempted to carry on rambling at this stage, but I know your just itching to find out what a GOOBI is. Am I right? Well I'll put you out of your misery right now! GOOBI is simply a mnemonic for Get Out Of Bed Inducer. It's that thing that gets you out of bed in the morning and puts a spring in your step. It's also been described elsewhere, as your 'Friday night essence'. Think about it, what would you happily spend Friday night working on instead of dining with friends or watching a movie? I was reminded of the GOOBI concept recently, whilst watching a film. The title of the film escapes me, which is probably best because it was rubbish. If I was to tell you the title you'd only go watch it, and then you'd be saying why did he mention that film it was rubbish. Anyway, at one point in the film, the leading character made a statement that struck a chord with me. He said 'The secret to success is to find something you love doing, and do it for the rest of your life!' Of course, he was talking about finding your GOOBI. So here comes the hard part. To find your GOOBI you have to start thinking for yourself. I know that bit's going to come as a shock to some of you, as a lot of people will go to the ends of the earth to avoid thinking for themselves. Isn't it just a lot easier to run with the flock and let the shepherd and his dog make all the decisions for you? If you've just answered 'Yes' to that last part, then all I have to say to you is 'Baaah!'. For those of you who don't speak Sheep, roughly translated this means 'You'd be better off grazing with the flock, you haven't got what it takes'. If you think that thinking is hard, you ain't seen nothing yet! (Authors note: 'think that thinking is hard' is it me or does that have chicken and egg connotations? Never mind, hopefully you see my point. Let's get back to the plot.) What do you really love to do? It's a simple question; so don't try to make it a hard one. We're talking about constructive exercises here so don't cheat by saying 'Nothing'. Anyway, I'm sure you'd get bored doing absolutely nothing for the rest of your life. The answer you come up with should be your true vocation. If you're totally honest with yourself, then if you do the thing you love for the rest of your life, you can't fail to be successful. You'll literally do anything you need to do, to carry on doing what you love to do. Hey, have I just invented a new tongue twister, or another piece of nonsense rhyme? So, go find your GOOBI! You know it makes sense, which after reading what I've just written, is more than I do. Be successful!

Grasso, Kennedy, Frost, Public Service and You “Something we were withholding made us weak/Until we found out that it was ourselves,” wrote Robert Frost, in “The Gift Outright.” Frost recited this poem at John F.

My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what American will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man,” John F. Kennedy was sworn in as the 35th president… |
