What's in a name?

I'm setting up my own publishing company and have been going through a few names. In my usual way I wanted to check the meanings of the names and got to looking into numerology. If you want to check your name in numerology have a look at http://www.paulsadowski.com/Numbers.asp

So, I've picked a name! Can't tell you what it is yet till it's set up but here's its meaning:

You have a natural flair for big business and the challenges imposed by the commercial world. Power, status and success are very important to you. You have strong urges to supervise, organize and lead. Material desires are also very pronounced. You have good executive abilities, and with these, confidence, energy and ambition.

Your mind is analytical and judgment sound; you're a good judge of material values and also human character. Self-controlled, you rarely let emotions cloud judgment. You are somewhat of an organizer at heart, and you like to keep those beneath you organized and on a proper track. This is a personality that wants to lead, not follow. You want to be known for your planning ability and solid judgment.


You dream of artistic expression; writing, painting, music. You would seek to more freely express your inner feeling and obtain more enjoyment from life. You also dream of being more popular, likable, and appreciated.


and here is mine:

So, I have a ticket to go to Goa this friday. A much needed and well earned holiday. Visa should have come through today and due to circumstances really out of my hands I have no visa so cannot go. Have lost the money on the ticket and will not be staying at the beautiful beach hut on paradise beach. I wish I could explain what's been going on in life for the last few months but it involves too many folk so lets just stick with this was my much needed holiday.


I'm going to take the next two weeks of my cleared diary to sort, clear, clear, shift, detox and empty and along the way I'm going to begin crazy fm. I'm off now to the Christmas Market for a glass of hot German Christmas wine and to see some ole friends. Love love.
