Predictions for 2007
*Note these predictions are not derived from any source, psychic or fortune teller. It is just something I felt like writing based on strong feelings inside of me.
- Tony Blair and the UK government will continue a huge debate over money and the price of basic neccessities such as food, water, electricity, etc will continue to soar.
- The whole world over will see a rapid change in weather, and the winter will be extremely short and not-so-cold due to the large global warming impact.
- In the UK specifically, there will be serious water problems.
- In the first half of 2007, there will be a tragic event within UK’s Royal Family.
- There will be a massive shipwreck somewhere near India, but I am not able to guess when specifically.
- The world will be exploded with Viral Marketing technology to promote products, services and information.
- Flash web technology will no longer be as popular and web designers will use something new and unheard.
- Just as blogging has become massive in 2006, the use of audio and video blogging will be incredibly powerful tools.
- RSS will increase in visibility and nearly all internet users will know of it.
- The Middle East peace process will be well underway from 2007.
- Asian fashion is going back to the olden-days. Styles, designs, colours are those that were worn maybe 15-30 years ago.
- Western world fashion will grow to be more allure, slick, stylish and elegant.
- Microsoft has been extremely quiet in 2006, but will now stage a powerful comeback in 2007 to regain it’s place at the top against Apple and other software companies.
- There will be an infectious disease outbreak starting in Asia and spreading through Europe, towards the USA.
- The economy will continue to rise, but due to the massive infectious disease outbreak, it will only rise slightly.
- Open Source web templates and internet marketing software will increase in popularity as more information about how it all works is known to a wider group of people.
- The number 2007 with regards to Hollywood brings to mind 007. I think James Bond will be back with a massive mega-hit!
- The number of refugees moving from third world countries into first world countries will increase exponentially.
- I think we are living through the origins of the next World War. I guess the responsibility falls to Blair and Bush, but World War Three is upon is between the years 2007-2010.
- The message of personal development and that there is no way you can fail, unless you quit or give up, is reaching more and more people.
- Thousands and thousands more people are learning about the entreprenuerial mindset, and being helped to get out of the employee mindset.
- More and more westerners will be getting into and using the pratice of yoga and meditation rigourously.
- The nation’s most common disease will be sexually-transmitted diseases.
- Books will no longer be the common medium of information exchange. More CDs, DVDs, videos, etc are going to be used.

No commentsInstructions for when I am dead
I’ve had this thought for a while, but since my blog is a great medium for sharing any and everything I thought I’d write this…
I am not having any thoughts or “insights” that I am going to leave at any point soon, and I certaintly wouldn’t like to, but the fact that when I am no longer here in this form and nobody extremely close to me knows how to tap into my databases and inform my large lists of prospects, customers, clients and other friends is daunting.
So I’m going to schedule some time to allow my fingers to tap away into an MS Word document soon and type out instructions of how to get into important things in my life, business, music and other stuff so that if anyone needs urgent - urgent - access to it, they know where to go.
I don’t intend to talk about this document or inform anyone through speech. Those who will read this blog post will know.
What do you think about this idea? Am I being arrogant or am I just being organised? Your thoughts please.
No commentsThrow A Tantrum and Get it!
I was on the train heading back home today and was sitting opposite a young girl who had a badge on her that read:
“See it, Want it, Throw A Tantrum and Get it!”
It made me realise what we used to do as kids. We really did use to throw tantrums to get what we wanted. As adults though, what difference would it make if we did the same thing as well? Why did we need to change out of that kind of thinking? Doesn’t throwing tantrums get us what we want - if it’s worked every single time as a kid, it must have the same effect as an adult!
