    Do you have one, have you considered one?

    I was recently introduced to the concept and am investigating further.

    Will post more as I read what makes up a personal philosophy and some examples.

    Interested in others' thoughts.

    My personal philosophy is mostly derived from these 2 legends. Personal philosophy is huge. Probably the biggest determining factor to how one's life turns out. It is the foundation which everything else is built upon.

    Life is a jump from the maternity ward to the grave :) And in the process of jumping we can look around and do something :)

    Before making an important decision, be it purchasing an IP or getting hitched, jump in a car (doesn’t have to be yours but preferably a V8 Commodore) and smoke those darn tyres!

    The excitement will send the blood rushing through your head and therefore you’ll be in a better decision making position.

    Just get up each morning and say it's going to be the best day in your life no matter what happens..

    The other small item is just before i make important decisions like my mate datto is i watch this old NZ cult movie for a few seconds before the commsec account opens ..

    I personally would not invest in shares which are linked to gambling ie TAB, Aristocrat and etc.
