Why are you holding your breath?
What are you choosing to postpone?
Reward yourself and those around you.
Stop waiting; Live life for life today.

Your task, should you choose to accept it, is to write out a list of things you tolerate. Could be: not being organized, not yet having put up those shelves in the office, driving an SUV even though you are concerned with the environment, being rude, not knowing your boundaries, what ever... Write out all that comes to mind. Give yourself the time it takes and don't worry, you can always add to it again later. Once you're done, read over your list (mine was a few pages). Now chose something to work on asking: what interest you have in doing so, what resources you need to help you, and when you will start and finish the work. Figure out your fist step and do it.

[thanks for your comments! oh, and no I'm not ill... nor am I holding back a burp ;) ]

Thanks Dave Mac - you bring up an interesting question about composition. Here, I chose to crop off the top as I felt it worked better in allowing the mind to complete my head all while better filling the frame (in my opinion).

Guess we all have of preference. Cheers!

Delightful, and thanks for the good advice. I agree with Dave_Mac that the crop may be unnecessarily tight, but that's your decision. Can we see another version?

Congratulations on a well-deserved, featured and funny self-portrait.

King: Thanks mate! Actually don't have another version where my head's fully in the frame. If I get a chance today, I'll shoot another version and post it.

Cheers everybody!

I like it the way it's cropped, and if you move the shot so the crop lines up with the top of your screen (so the white WS border is gone) it really does look great. This would look really fine on a black background, and that cropping wouldn't be as noticeable, I think.
