What are ghosts – Well Ghosts come in many different forms, densities and subtleties. The easy ghosts to spot are the big bad boo hoo kind, you know, THE WONT LET YOU SLEEP – KEPT YOU UP ALL NIGHT – ALL IN YOUR FACE TYPE!… These ghosts are easy to spot. You may notice them by the Look on Some peoples faces or by their actions, maybe what comes out of their mouths may signal that they have a ghost. Anyway their presence is obvious, worry limiting beliefs, negative thinking, procrastination, fears, lack of motivation, dirty language etc.
Other than the boo hoo Variety, there’s a more subtle kind, they are a bit harder to spot, I didn’t notice I was caring one around. fear and procrastination they where well hidden behind my own self talk and excuses.
This Variety of ghosts take on a more subtle form. For me they where the Remanence of a previous experience a kind of trumor that I thought I got over but my actions told a different story.
Ghosts may not weigh very much, but they sure can slow you down
You may not consciously think about you past troubling experience or even register the emotions attached to it. But they can affect you today in the here and now. Its worth having a think about.
Ghost hates light ghost hate questions
A well welcomed light shown on a ghost I had sitting on my shoulder. The ghost of fear and procrastination had no place to hide. A question can be a powerful light source as long as you are Honest with your self. The ghost will have know where to hide and the you will be free To make progress.
Let me explain…
As part of my new years resolution, I set out to be interactive on the blogger sphere, I discovered a real cool site called the hustlers notebook – I read an article written by Jk, that caught my attention and struck a cord in my mind – The words let me re introduce my self, Instantly I was fully engaged. Jk’s post was warm open and honest, this prompted me to leave a comment. A couple hours later he replied thanking me for the comment, he went ahead to explain that I had a broken re-direct on my contact form, but then Jk Hit me over the head with a question the really got me thinking.
Ghosts hate question
Jk asked me why had I not got any comments on my blog yet. My reply was simply, I had turned off the comment function. Have you heard the saying “Still water runs deep”, well for me the truth also runs deeper. Jk question had cut deep, revealing the old ghosts of my dyslexic past. Fear was still at work which took the form of procrastination.
Use the Power of reflection to shed light on ghosts
I found myself looking back, reviewing my actions and motives, I had been acting out of the past. I had engaged in behaviours that no longer reflect my current reality. Before I had grasped reading and writing the computer was the last place you would find me and even though I became literate, written or text communication was just not attractive to me, I had maintained an habit of avoidance, that I was continuing.
I had been reluctant to communicate with people via mediums such face book, twitter , I’ve been reluctant to text or email friends, I had always opted to communicate by phone. Anyway back to the comments, I initially turned my comments off for what I thought was a good reason, but that reason had long expired and I failed to renew my thinking.

A little bit of the history about me and this Blog
mpdspace.com was originally my personal development space.com. This blog was once a website in it first incarnation written in Raw Html. I set myself a personal challenge to build a website and I did it. Learnt some basic html and I got a website template then it put together. I called the site my personal development space because it was an expression of my growth which it still is now, I have Learnt a great deal, its like taking an advance degree in Personal development.
My intention – To build a resource which has Value. A resource I would like read my self, Addressing the meat of Personal development and self growth from my own unique experience, insights and research.
Here’s a great ghost killer…Your Hobbies, Activities or work should build You
- It’s not what you make of your activities, it’s what the activities makes of YOU
Character, by character, Word by word and Sentence by sentence, I used mpdspace.com “Like a Priest doing Exorcistism”, My mission was to Condition a new self image by removing the old image of dyslexia. I began to strengthen my new self image by writing. my goal intention has been to capture the essence or at least the details off my self transformation and growth. Documenting the universal strategies and principles involved in the process.
I used the site to bring out my talent for writing and exercising my research skill and creativity. I put my work online because I wanted the world to know nothing is set in stone, especially not a human being. We can change and grow even if you’ve been hunted and held down by goblins and ghosts, that hinders your growth and expression, I want the masses to know that there’s a source of holy water available called Personal Development.

The Discovery of Blogging
I as everyone who has published to a websites knows it can be a long and drawn out process. Every post comes with a pile of HTML. One day I discovered bloggings and an easy way to publish content to the web, It was a know brainier compared to the old way.
Blogs possessed many advantages over websites, even though I loved the mental challenge and sense of achievement playing with raw Html code, WordPress plug-ins allowed me to do things that would either take me years to do, or cost me a bomb. One of the benefits I felt I didn’t need was the comments box, because after all I didn’t have comment on my old website – That’s was the limiting stories I told myself.
A Quick review of my Personal development Journey as a writer/ blogger
- Evolution of my writing /blogging career
- Started Writing on scrap pieces of paper
- Become more organised – Started writing in notes books
- Bought a computer learnt how to use a pc fell in love with Ms Word Read Please 2000
- As a personal exercise I built mpdspace, amongst other reason I wanted to catalogue my growth in order to recreate it and use again the principles of my transformation, why did I publish it on line , I wanted to share the message that personal transformation is in reach and there is a process to it.
I had succeeded in my mission to build a blog site and there were new and easer ways of publishing content (birth of blogging)
Even though now I had a blog I was still thinking website… I was in my comfort zone, even though I wanted to turn on my comments a part of me couldn’t stand the thought of spelling mistakes in comment emails etc, but I did not consciously recognise this until Jk
hit me with a question that shone light on a deeper truth.
Be a ghost killer
Personal Progression demands that you hold the deepest honesty with self – To be a ghost killer, Man has to hunt down these devilish specter, Who are spooking your growth – Cramping your style, Plain and Simply f – ing up your Personal Swagger in the growth area.
Les brown say’s… “You have to Die Every Day to become the Person You Want To Be”, This equally means that every day You must be Reborn in to your true Vision.
- Are your expressing character to the fullest? and if not why!

Looking out for signs of haunting.
How do you know if you’re carrying ghosts around with you, that a tough question! The simple answer is to have a regular check by asking yourself good quality questions.
Instead of being spooked by ghost, you can do the spooking. Ghosts hate questions spook them with these’s ghosts killers

Ghosts hide behind fronts
Are you fronting…fronting is a strategy people use to deflect attention away from them selves, fronting is worst when your hiding thing from your self.
Your actions tell the tell, Your actions, may be structured to guide you around what you may perceive as painful experience’s. Antony Robins say’s – We do things for pleasure and we avoid things that cause pain.
Keep a look out for excuses, Especially Excuse that sound reasonable when your engaged in the ghostly other world self talk. Ghost talk that is Complex and Strategically designed to keep you safe in your comfort zone.
Ghost often Disguise them selves as legitimate entities, who have a right to be on gods good earth, but do they! – Hell no. Like all ghosts they had their time, Now its time to leave, and make room for the green. As with all ghost they are fleeting materializing into and out form – They can be hard to see – BE A GHOST KILLER – Thanks Jk for uncovering the Spook
