Today I'm looking at the subject of laughter/laughing.

Here's a few quotes and this week's cartoon:
 
I am thankful for laughter, except when milk comes out of
my nose.  ~ Woody Allen
 
Even if there is nothing to laugh about, laugh on credit.
~Author Unknown
 
A good laugh and a long sleep are the best cures in the doctor's
book.  ~Irish Proverb

"Laughter" Laughter is the best medicine - smiling is pretty good for you too. Cartoon of faces laughing and one smiling. Graph in the background going upwards.

A good, real, unrestrained, hearty laugh is a sort of glorified internal massage, performed rapidly and automatically.  It manipulates and revitalizes corners and unexplored crannies of the system that are unresponsive to most other exercise methods.  ~ Author unknown

Laughter it makes us feel real good – have a good laugh tonight!

A smile costs nothing but gives much. It enriches those who receive without making poorer those who give. It takes but a moment, but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever. None is so rich or mighty that he cannot get along without it and none is so poor that he cannot be made rich by it. Yet a smile cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is of no value to anyone until it is given away. Some people are too tired to give you a smile. Give them one of yours, as none needs a smile so much as he who has no more to give.

Carry laughter with you wherever you go.- Hugh Sidey

It's really that simple – to succeed you need to fail more!

"Would you like me to give you a formula for success? It's quite simple, really. Double your rate of failure. You are thinking of failure as the enemy of success. But it isn't at all. You can be discouraged by failure or you can learn from it, So go ahead and make mistakes. Make all you can. Because remember that?s where you will find success."
- Thomas J. Watson

You’ve got to get over obstacles and carry on on your way to success!

In my thirty years as a freelance cartoonist I’ve had my fair share of overcoming obstacles, setbacks and disappointments and I’m sure there will be lots more before I hang up my pencils. The trick is to take it in your stride and bounce back when you’ve been knocked for six – for when you say you’ve had enough and you quit you’re finished. Leaving the way open for someone else to take your place and maybe the prize!

Obstacles cartoon - overcoming obstacles, guy has fallen down on his way up a mountain to success. He's going to dust himself down and get back up and carry on upwards.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So the message here is – DON’T let obstacles get in your way of success!

Let me know if you have any ‘obstacle’ quotes that we could share!?

Or let me know the obstacles you’ve overcome on your road to success!?

Fear Of Heights – Overcoming your fear…

Today we look at one of my biggest phobias – Fear Of Heights.
I miss out on bungee jumps, going up skyscrapers and doing
scenic mountain walks. I suffer from breathlessness,
excessive sweating, nausea, dry mouth, shaking, heart
palpitations, inability to think clearly, a fear of dying,
becoming mad or losing control, a sensation of detachment
from reality or a full blown anxiety attack…and that was just
while I was drawing the cartoon!

Health and Safety Cartoons can save life or limb!

As I’m sure you’re aware you need to keep Health and Safety
at the forefront of everyone’s mind 24-7 whether it’s in the home or at work.

Health and Safety cartoons can illustrate serious messages
in a light hearted way.

Health and safety cartoons, can save life or limb, cartoon of alien outside, has lots of eyes, guy is not letting him in because he's not wearing safety glasses

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Most organisations primarily use the health and safety cartoons as posters,
usually on a regular basis. In this way, employees are informed
of ongoing safety issues.

Consider health and safety cartoons via emails, training materials, Powerpoint presentations and calendars (They’re in front of them everyday of the year!) Remember, save one accident and any cartoon you commission will have paid for itself a hundred fold.

College of Hard Knocks….

Today’s subject is on the ‘College/School of Hard Knocks’. To be a success at anything you have to take some hard knocks. If you’re not taking the knocks chances are you’re a failure who’s backed off or quit. Here’s some of my favourite quotes and a Sid Gatt cartoon strip…

I, on the other hand, am a fully-rounded human being, with a degree from the University of Life, a diploma from the School of Hard Knocks, and three gold stars from the Kindergarten of Getting the Sh*t Kicked Out of Me
~ Rowan Atkinson

The School Of Hard Knocks…

The school of hard knocks is an accelerated curriculum
~ Menander of Athens

If you can learn from hard knocks, you can also learn from soft touches.
~ Carolyn Kenmore

Sid Gatt Cartoon Strip About The School Of Hard Knocks…
