Marisa Micallef (Leyson) has really disappeared though. Is she still on MLP’s payroll?

Yep. Sports psychologists, since the mid-90s, have been training elite athletes to think about losing.

IF, big IF, that were the case, then Muscat WILL resign immediately, because the (sole) goal he set himself of being the youngest PM will have become unachievable.

It is stupid to stick a goal to one’s head and not fully know the path to get there.

In Muscat’s case there are too many variables for lonely positive thinking to get you there. Greed is normally the one that throws everything out of the window.

Of course blue-sky thinking only works if circumstances are already favourable.

You (I mean this generically not personally, Baxxter) quite literally, see that for yourself. Try thinking the sky’s blue when it’s pouring with rain.

Now try thinking that Joseph and Michelle Muscat will be your prime minister in two weeks’ time.

They’re the main reason I retired at fifty.

I realise in typing this I may be preaching to the converted.

The thing is that goals have to be believable and achievable.

You have to have an action plan that can be translated into daily tasks.

And they have to be highly personal.

The problem with politicians, why I could never be one and would be lousy as one, is that they are essentially setting a goal for other people, i.e. trying to get them to vote for the politician in question.

The problem for me is that there are people voting for Labour who haven’t read the ‘Manifest’ and don’t have a clue what will happen if Labour get in.

It may be a modern interpretation of what democracy is all about but it doesn’t make it any better knowing you’ve done your bit whilst you are surrounded by morons doing their best to drag you down.

I am so amazed that Muscat can get away with being such a useless twat that a perverse part of me is eager to see him get in power to watch him fail time after time after time.
