“Every king springs from a race of slaves, and every slave had Kings among his ancestors.” –by Plato If you think about it or analyze it, most of the Millionaires nowadays are self-made. Most of them were really poor, like Vice President Jejomar Binay and Manny Pacquiao, those rappers and other boxers, as well as Giselle Buendchen (Bundchen) worked hard to where they are now. They have enslave themselves and now comfortably sit where they are now. How about those who inherited their wealth like the Zobel de Ayalas and Paris Hilton? There’s a saying that the third generation will squader it. But if you handle your finances and children like Donald Trump would, your lineage could forever basked in wealth. The Aboitiz of the Visayas were keeping it cool that some of the younger generations are able to do better in the business and become seniors of the company sooner than their older relatives. It will not hurt. Image source: The artwork is created by Carol I of Romania (Angel) [FAL], via Wikimedia Commons
“The man who does not read good books has no advantage over the man who can’t read them” –by Mark Twain Because great thinkers were able to prove to themselves that their principles were working for them and they are the proof.

All you need to do is help yourself so that you can move forward faster that your colleagues.
There are also those who are called street smart without proper education that make it to a point because its where they can go without additional educational learning. “There are some defeats more triumphant than victories.” –by Michael de Montaigne This is because you learn when you are defeated. You lose the celebrity status and reminded of your goal. When you realize that, you will never back down on incoming fights. Like what happened to the Filipino Pride and Pambansang Kamao Manny Pacquiao when he lost a fight. He lost the enthusiasm of the Pilipinos but he regained it by becoming what he is now, a pound-per-pound king. A champion of the world.
“Cheer up! The worst is yet to come!” –by Phelander Johnson When business is going nowhere because of bad economy or it is not just happening for months now.
When you cannot understand the lesson and got nothing during the evaluative quiz, your exams are suffering. So cheer up. Be calm. Be prepared for the worst and make a plan to counter it. You can think better and clearer with a calm head. He was a dreamer, a thinker, a speculative philosopher , or as his wife would have it, an idiot9/16/2011 “He was a dreamer, a thinker, a speculative philosopher , or as his wife would have it, an idiot.” –by Douglas Adams It is not enough to dream, think, and talk. We also have to act and make way for it to be a reality. Other people will just sit down and think of things but never of solutions and opportunities to make it a reality. And then shame the other because they did not follow his advice which he so wanted to do but won’t.
“Every one seems to have a clear idea of how other people should lead their lives, but none about his or her own.” –by Paulo Coelho It’s just easy to criticize and look down on others but if we reflect on ourselves and weigh our abilities we usually don’t like it. And our mistake is not doing anything about it. We should not hesitate to challenge ourselves. Until then, we can respect others.
“Surround yourself only with people who are going to take you higher.” –by Oprah Winfrey Make sure that the friends you are with will help you go up the ladder. Up where you can showcase your true potential as well as where you can improve what you know. Friends that drag you down should at least be avoided, else don't go out with them. Often times you feel that you are already great and don't need to be anywhere higher because among your friends you were the one who achieved more and they are nowhere close.
“When you know what you want, and want it bad enough, you will find a way to get it.” –by Jim Rohn This is like wanting at least one Jimi Chui in your closet to the extent of exhausting your credit card or spend someone else’s money. Desires and want should be done at the right way. Have patience (it’s a virtue) and you might stumble on a bargain.
Some people step on others just to get where they are -- the position they were targeting. And when they reach the top, no one is lifting them, they are celebrating it with themselves.

Most of the contestants become big stars like Jackie Rice, Iwa Moto, Katrina Halili, Mark Heras, and Marky Cielo.
In life, it is very important to have a dream and work for it. Work hard for it. Believe in that dream, believe that you can achieve it, believe that you can live it and you will have it. The reward would be the survival of trials and depressions but you will come out stronger and wiser. |
