Forming an you own Opinion–Pretty important if you want to be someone.

 

Now I've been brought up with the concept of being my own man right from the early start of my life, not having to conform to the “ways” of the masses and sticking out as an individual.

This is pretty hard with the constant trends and social expectancies created to help put people into social groups and keep them there.

Remember the guys on the Top don't want you to be at the Top, so they’d rather have you conforming to the mass ways of life, 8-5 days, blowing your budget by the 15th of a month so they can offer you credit and before you know it, they’ve got you .

Now unfortunately we need people to fill that place, that's just how the world works and its been working that way since God put Adam and Eve in the garden to tend the land and mind the animals.

So the world needs workers, the guys on the ground building the infrastructure of industry, and commerce. BUT that doesn't mean you have to be like that too, if you’re reading this i guarantee you have a pretty good level of savvy.

What am i basically trying to say Be Your Own Person, form your Own opinions, try your best not to get caught up in the world and ultimately strive for excellence. God created us with the intention to do so much, and only wants the best for us, so lets make something of ourselves, strive for the best we can, obstacles are there for us to overcome and anything is Possible!!

Commit your ideas, dreams, and ambitions to God, and you’ll go far.

BUT, and a very crucial BUT, Remember nothing will work if you don't go out there and do IT! One thing dreaming up good ideas, another thing doing them.

 

Anyway that’s my opinion.

Please share yours and make sure its yours and not a families, friends, or groups opinions, we are individuals and need to have our own.

I really miss Tel-Aviv

5 Success Secrets From The 2nd Richest Man In History Andrew Carnegie

This is an Amazing extract from: young entrepreneur.com

This is the sort of advice i need at the moment, battling with social issues, and trying to get a business off the ground…

1. Keep a Positive Attitude

“A sunny disposition is worth more than fortune. Young people should know that it can be cultivated; that the mind like the body can be moved from the shade into sunshine. There is little success where there is little laughter. Think of yourself as on the threshold of unparalleled success. A whole, clear, glorious life lies before you. Achieve! Achieve!”

2. Believe In Yourself

“People who are unable to motivate themselves must be content with mediocrity, no matter how impressive their other talents. Immense power is acquired by assuring yourself in your secret reveries that you were born to control affairs. Think of yourself as on the threshold of unparalleled success. A whole, clear, glorious life lies before you. Achieve! Achieve!”

3. Never Compromise

“The ‘morality of compromise’ sounds contradictory. Compromise is usually a sign of weakness, or an admission of defeat. Strong men don’t compromise, it is said, and principles should never be compromised.”

4. Be First

“The first man gets the oyster, the second man gets the shell. Aim for the highest.”

5. Be The Best

“And here is the prime condition of success, the great secret: concentrate your energy, thought, and capital exclusively upon the business in which you are engaged. Having begun in one line, resolve to fight it out on that line, to lead in it; adopt every improvement, have the best machinery, and know the most about it. Success can be attained in any branch of human labor. There is always room at the top in every pursuit. Concentrate your energies, your thoughts and your capital…. The wise man puts all his eggs in one basket and watches the basket.”

Imagine

Imagine you were born in a town where no one had electricity and a lot of people never knew what electricity was, where cars were only for the very wealthy, and there were no tarred roads.

Imagine the biggest cities of the day were only as big as the towns of today, and that you would know most of the people living in the town.

Imagine you would carry a rifle with you and shoot birds by the river and take pot shots at random things around the town.

Imagine you were just over 20 and you found your self at war in North Africa.

Imagine you were taken prisoner by the enemy and sent deep behind enemy lines.

Imagine you spent 4 years in a POW camp, not knowing who was winning the war and not knowing when you would ever get home.

Imagine the war was eventually won and you found your self being taken to friendly soil, and eventually back home.

Imagine seeing your family for the first time in years.

Imagine having children and seeing them growing up and having children of their own.

Imagine seeing an Oppressive government fall and seeing a new democratic government put in its place by the people.

Imagine seeing all your grandchildren grow up and get to know them.

Imagine having to face tough challenges, but staying strong and fighting for your life.

Imagine living your final days with your partner of more that 50 years.

Imagine passing away peacefully and living a full life.

W.G White, didn't imagine that he lived it.

Communist Leaders who live Capitalist lives?
This is abit strange for my First blog... but its something im keen on discussing.
The RED THREAT, as known but most of the Western world, Coined by the Yanks most probably, a political and social system that on paper was perfect but when practiced by us Human Beings becomes a far from perfect system.
This RED THREAT Was fought by the Republic of South Africa in the 70’s and 80’s, and now we find ourselves perhaps endorsing this “RED THREAT”.
As we know, or a couple of us know, The Republic of South Africa is based on a Socialist system, where capitalism and free trade is practiced, but the work force is commanded but unions, the Tripartite alliance its forged between the Ruling Party, COSATU, and the SACP. Both COSATU and the SACP (South African Communist Party) Are Pro Marxist, and follow Marxist rhetoric.

Now my Question is: Why Does the Head Honchos of the Trade Unions and SACP live lavish lifestyles? Ju Ju, “a Man of the People”, Drives an Aston martin, Range Rover Sport, and an AMG Mercedes Benz. I don’t see the average Joe Driving Those unless he’s just won a crossword puzzle competition or something... I have nothing bad to say about living those sort of life styles due to the mere fact that I want just the same, my Problem is with the face that if you are saying you are a man of the people, or a Communist leader for that fact, live the people’s lives... We all know that will never happen, and that is why Communism fails, due to the Fact that the Leaders live well and get all the Spoils and the People Work the Land, and barely have anything to live off, cause the crops are property of the state (Collective Farming). If Communism were ever to work, everyone would have to be equal, and be able to govern the country in a democratic fashion... oh but that’s not Communism?
This Is where socialism comes in, a System derived by the Needs of a Social state, but where everyone has their own possessions, and can and trade freely in a capitalist market. But the leaders will still live “UnSocialistic” Life styles.

That’s just a couple thoughts from the Top of my Head, Tell me your feelings and your ideas on the matter. Remember I’m not saying there is anything wrong with Communism, Its “Perfect” on Paper; we are talking about how the Leaders Reap the Rewards, and the People on the Street Suffer.
