&lt;p&gt;      Hello to you, users of this wonderful new pod!&amp;nbsp; My name is &lt;a href="http://daibh.zaadz.com/"&gt;Daibhidh&lt;/a&gt; and it is nice to discuss these subjects with you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So where am I on the &lt;em&gt;path of self-actualization&lt;/em&gt;?&amp;nbsp; Well, somewhere in the middle I would say.&amp;nbsp; Always somewhere in the middle.&amp;nbsp; It seems, with that in mind, no matter how quick you march or how sure your step his, the percieved destination always grows in length; grows in distance and in temperament.&amp;nbsp; The horizon line is always changing and the sun, always setting that little bit further down the track.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think the real question is -for myself anyway- &lt;em&gt;how do we know we are where we want to be?&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp; I mean, if we are forever striving for something more -the new learning and the new experience- &lt;em&gt;can we ever be where we want to be?&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;I have also, just recently, began feeling like I am living a right livelihood, completely -but in the sense of journey, rather than destination- in the last six months or so.&amp;nbsp; My unstable and uncertain life slowly began to take form and shape when I realised a certain business opportunity in my &amp;#39;midst -and that myself and my lady will be at last, soon settling down with our own apartment and own means to an end.&amp;nbsp; This -in my mind, as it will be in reality, very soon- is the closest I have come to a sustainable life in all known respects.&amp;nbsp;  &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;      CJ, that is a great story, one that most people would have a tendency to envy I&amp;#39;m sure. I started this pod to help people reach the place where you seem to be. I expect your words of encouragement and maybe some &amp;quot;street&amp;quot; wisdom will greatly enhance what happens here. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;      I&amp;#39;m so glad to see you all here. I started this pod yesterday as a vehicle to communicate about the project I&amp;#39;ve been working on for a while. Didn&amp;#39;t expect to see so much interest so quickly. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What I am going to do is post a URL with a PDF file I am writing (it is in early beta stage at this time, but has a lot of info) Then you all can read it... From there we can launch our discussions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is the URL to get the free PDF: &lt;a href="http://selfactualizenow.com" target="_blank"&gt;http://selfactualizenow.com &lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can also read about the program on this site.&lt;br /&gt;To Your Self Actualization,&lt;br /&gt;T Sebastian&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;      I have only begun truly living a right livelihood completely in the past few years. It has become an amazing journey of happy chance and amazing opportunity that I would not have believed possible a decade ago. I have been fortunate in ways I still cannot totally believe by letting go and following my bliss.&amp;nbsp; It is very simple, but rarely easy and not often kind, but oh, so rewarding. I do what I love and help people and the world at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;So....tell me your stories. Where are you on the path of self-actualization? Are you living (or trying to) a sustainable life?&lt;br /&gt;Peace&lt;br /&gt;CJ&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
