This site is about people; people like you and me, the future and the possibilities of our potential to think outside the box, to take the seemingly impossible and make it possible to create the futures we desire.

This site is about providing information on removing limitations that stop all of us from being the best that we can be.

It is about creating wealth: without wealth we cannot help others or have a planet that is secure for all who come after us. It is about daring to conceive, believe and then to achieve a future that will carry us through all the challenges that we confront. This site is about providing a resource to help create the change that will be our future.

Join us on the journey "About People" moving "Toward Sustainable Futures"

I believe life is constantly testing us for our level of commitment, and life's greatest rewards are reserved for those who demonstrate a never-ending commitment to act until they achieve. This level of resolve can move mountains, but it must be constant and consistent. As simplistic as this may sound, it is still the common denominator separating those who live their dreams from those who live in regret.

Anthony Robbins

About People magazine

What is “About People”?
About People was started by Ian Cleland to provide honest, transparent and positive news on business, communities and people who are engaging in the processes of sustainability.
It was conceived to provide you with stories by professionals in their fields of expertise; information that can help you create the changes you desire.
If you are going to create change it is better to have positive rather than negative information as input.
This is not to say we will not confront the challenges facing all of us in our daily lives and the future. We will publish stories about solutions and the possibilities of change. About People is also about eliminating the fear that we have to change in our future.

What is happening in 2012?

Yes, there have been a few glitches this year but now that they are out of the way, we move on. Never let it be said that I am a quitter. The new year brings the relaunch of "About People" with an issue to published end of March as the launching point for "The Art of Life and Sustainability" A conversation on art, design, life and sustainability. It is about people taking the conversation to public and private spaces of our cities to demonstrate that this is a time for change. Lets us all take the journey of possible sustainable futures.

The magazine; "About People Vol 2 No 1".
