Hi, I'm Matt Cardy, thanks for visiting my website!
I'm no famous bod, and to build a site about myself, you may think is a bit egotistical. Well, I guess it is really, but hey, I don't really care. In this, the age of reality TV and everyone vying for their own 15 minutes of fame, why should I not jump on the bandwagon?!
Not that this is going to be a jump into the world of TV and make me famous, far from it, I'm not doing it for that, however, we all like to look into other people's lives, because we're all nosey aren't we? No? You're here, reading this, so I guess you must be either curious, nosey or you found this site on a search engine and have nothing better to do than read about me.
Thanks for that!
So, about me. There's a whole story to tell that you won't find on the pages of this site, sorry, but some things do command to remain private. I'm not an egotistical maniac and I don't thrive on attention, welcome or not. I'm quite a private person who has his likes and loves just like anyone else.
I'm not special, and certainly not important enough to fill a full page about myself, I didn't even think a full site was possible, even though it's mainly about what I like! Oh well, it's done now!
I'm a pretty simple guy who hates working for other people, has a problem with discipline from others and hates being told what to do and when to do it. In my time I've had too many jobs that I have put myself into 110% and for that I've had no bloody recognition! I've got nothing to show for it and nobody can tell me that I had a hand in that businesses success. Apart from my own. I can honestly say I have my own destiny in MY hands.
My philosophy is that life is a one time experience we have to make the most of. I don't believe in selling my time for a small amount and not getting what I want out of life.
Right now, business is good and my future prospects look good because I've got up off my arse and done something about it. I believe that we don't get anywhere in life thinking small. I have dreams and aspirations and no matter how much shit I go through to get it, I'll do it. It might kill me, for sure, but at least I'll die doing something for myself and my family rather than for a boss who was always up my arse talking shit and telling me what to do and when to do it.
I don't need someone else to tell me when I can have a day off, what time I have to be at work, and what time I'm allowed to eat my lunch and when I can go home. I'm not two years old any more and I can decide when and how I do things for myself. I live my life for me, not for anyone else and I'll be damned if I ask anyone if I can go and have my lunch or go home early ever again.
This is my life and I'm in control. Not some jumped up middle manager with bollocks for brains. Not some CEO who swans in and out and doesn't know and doesn't care who the hell I am, other than just a link in his corporate chain.
Life is short. I'm not here for a long time, I'm here for a good time.
Enjoy the site. I enjoyed making it.
