Welcome to the online home of me, some guy given the name John Cleveland Payne. In the grand scheme of life, I am just another guy with another blog. But to myself, and hopefully to all of you who actually read this, I am something a little more special. From a young age, I fell in love of the idea of ‘the message’ and medium in which you try to transmit.
Basically, everyone has a message to give to the world. Some are basic, some complex, some have the power to up lift and some are just out there to bring as many people down as possible. But everyone has a message, and most people have problems identifying their message. And the ones who get that far can seem to figure out how to get the world to listen.
Well, I have a message, and this is where I will get a chance to share it. Hopefully, you’ll get plenty of things to keep you motivated or inspired, provide knowledge and comfort, and just have a little fun. Apologies for the state of flux and state of seemingly confusing messages that you’ll get here for a while, as I am doing a lot of personal soul searching, and scrubbing of old ideas to take the best of the past to build a new beginning.
In 2007, I changed the name of blog from “The Mis-Adventures Of The Jazzy Cool One” to “Life In Fast Forward.” I began to tear down old blogs and newsletters and try to find places for them here. My goal is to take the focus off of me the person, and show the world the life I live and share with every human on the planet. I aspire to life at a very high standard, and instead of dealing with people who rather slow us down, I want to find ways to help people pick up there own pace. As you get to see an insight to the further adventures I hope to lead, hopefully you’ll enjoy the ride, and want to come along.

I am making my third attempt to complete the Jim Rohm One-Year Success Plan. The first two attempts were fairly successful until they were stymied by my wife, once to restart the whole thing and work the program with her, and the second when I got busy with other things as I waited for my wife to work on the program, which she gave up on and just stalled to keep me from figuring out.
The program is pretty intensive and requires you to to do a lot of soul searching to answer a lot of questions about yourself and your life to help you in all aspect from career to personal finance to family time. One of those harder questions comes up in the 2nd week of the 52 week program, where you are asked to list 20 things you are thankful for. For all three attempts, 13 items is where I am stuck at. Can you think of 20 things right off the top of your head that you are thankful for? It would be a help, since I've been working on this list for three days now.
