As I mentioned in "Paul McKenna, NLP, Smoking, & Confidence", by a stroke of pure good fortune, my doctor has put me on a (normally) expensive course of Zyban tablets to help me quit the dreaded habit. The first prescription is for 30 tablets - to last about 2 weeks. Thereafter, I am to see the doctor again for progress checks and counseling if needed (I suppose).

Paul McKenna, NLP, Smoking, & Confidence

Paul McKenna .. does he work?

When I say, "does Paul McKenna work?", I mean of course, does his publicized programs work? Well, I am about to find out.

I have of course seen his ads on TV and listened to the derision of those around me when they hear his name. But then again, none of them have actually bought anything of his. They have, they claim, read how "dubious" he is ... in other words, a scam. But is this true?

Self-Taught vs Attending Courses

I sometimes find myself wondering if I should attend a course or if I can just find the information to teach myself. And which would be the better and maybe faster way to go?

I think there are pros and cons to both approaches. Certainly some people learn better via one avenue or the other. But I believe there are others like me who benefit via either way - albeit the results are sometimes different, depending on which approach has been taken.

I Want To Go Home

These words have been with me so long I can no longer remember when I first became consciously aware of them. And they still have the power to evoke the deepest longings in me.

Yesterday I saw the movie "Moon" - a science fiction with a strong story line. (A good review can be found at Moon: A Personal Movie Review)

Too Perfect. Too Tired.

I have come this route before but I still seem to be stuck in the same rut: trying to be too perfect.

By that I mean, when I want to do something, I can't seem just to do it. No. It has to be the "right" time. And/or when I have gotten all the materials I need or done all the research I can or ... Consequently lots of things don't get done. But new ones still come along, waiting to be done as well.
