My new computer

Well the old faithful dell inspiron 6000 laptop died over the weekend, well almost.  I decided it was time to get a new system.  So I headed to PC World becaues my father bought my sister and I new systems and were paying him back at a cheaper rate than the finance company. Here are the specs;

Dell Studio XPS

  • Intel Core i7 920 processor
  • (2.66GHz, 8MB Cache)
  • Genuine Windows Vista® Home Premium (with a free upgrade to Windows 7 on realease.
  • 6GB memory
  • 1TB hard drive
  • 512MB ATI Radeon HD4670 graphics

And an Acer X233Hb 23″ widescreen monitor.

I am very happy with the system…super fast.

Finlay Design Solutions new site design

Today I finally had some time to update the website for my business.  I updated the site back in July was never 100% happy with it.  Today I had some spare time and thought I would give the site a re-vamp. I am much happier with the new design.

Facebook Mafia Wars – New York Loot Guide

I have been playing Mafia Wars on Facebook for a couple of weeks now and I am addicted, sad I know but what can you do.  I still have a long way to go but I wanted to share this information with you.  Mafia Wars Loot GuideWhilst completing the Hitman section in the NY jobs, I was needing concealable cameras. I asked my friends/mafia to send me them and I managed to complete the jobs, but I thought there must be an easier way to get the things you need to complete the jobs. I did notice that you got some items when you completed certain jobs so I sat down and went through all the possible loot you can get from each job. So here it is, the list of things you will need and where you can find them.  I still have a couple of level’s to go before I unlock all the NY jobs but I will post the full list once I have it, then the Cuba one too once I get business running over there.

I will update this post once I have unlocked all the jobs and know where to find the good stuff.

New Page Added to the site – Chris Pirillo

I have added a new page to the site, like the title says.  It is a page dedicated to Chris Pirillo. Basically he is a geek who broadcasts his life to the world and I have been watching and following him for some time now and felt I should share him with you if you don’t already know who he is . Check out the Chris Pirillo page for his live video and link to his site.

Finding direction and purpose.

Recently I have felt like I have lost my way.  In the past I have always tried to find what was important to me in life, and to always be aware of what I wanted to be doing with my life. Looking For DirectionOver the past few weeks I feel like I have not had any direction or purpose in life and I am beginning to notice that I am no longer the life loving positive person I normally am. Little things are beginning to really annoy me where before I would acknowledge them then move on. In the past I sat down and really though about what I wanted to be doing and wrote it all down.  I looked out my notebook and read through it over and over again.  Now I feel back on track.

One of the things in my notebook was a series of questions I answered that helped me realise what I wanted to be doing in life.  Here is the list of questions taken from the E-Book “The principles of successful manifesting” written by Thomas Herold. I strongly recommend that you set aside some time each day to work your way through the questions, then read through your answers regularly to help you realise your path in life.

Don’t take these questions too seriously,play with them and also write down what comes up spontaneously – these are sometimes the most profound answers.

What would you do if you had enough money not to work ever again?
What were your dreams when you were younger?
What do you think is impossible for you to do?
What would you do if you won five million ponds?
What would you do if this was the last day of your life?
What would you do if you couldn’t fail?
What are your strengths and talents?
Do you have a wish but don’t know how to fulfil it?
What do you admire most about others?
What would your ideal lifestyle look like?
What does success mean for you?
What makes you really happy?
Is there anything that needs to be invented?
What does a perfect day look like for you?
What would you do if there were no restrictions?
What really excites you?
What would you be honoured and recognized for?
Where do you see your life in ten years?
If you were immortal, what would you do with your life?
What needs to change to make this a better world?
What would you do if you were Superman?
What are you proud of?
What would you do if you were the President/Prime Minister?
What would you like to accomplish this year?
What would you do differently if you could start over again?

Have fun with this and good luck, I hope this helps you find out what you want from life.
