There are so many “gurus” out there saying that they’re trying to make the world a better place, but are they really? Are you checking into the people whose information you follow before you become a follower and supporter? If not, you should be. Did you know that James Arthur…
Take Pride and be Confident
I was thinking about something the other day. Why is it that Big religion teaches people that pride is a sin? They say never to have pride. I mulled it around in my head, and I have a theory. I think they teach people that pride is a sin because…
Wealth And Happiness Are Not Synonyms
It’s a sad truth that most people these days think that wealth and happiness are synonyms. They believe that they can’t be happy unless they have more money. How wrong they are. The truth is, you can be a multimillionaire and not be happy. You can buy so much stuff…
Don’t Get Your Knickers in a Twist, You Were Wrong
Something I’ve noticed over many years of observation is that people don’t like being told they’re wrong. No matter how right you are, some people will just go off their nut if you tell them they’re wrong about something. People really need to get a grip. I realize that there…
Stop Being So Easily Offended
I’m always encouraging people to be more honest. I really think that people need to stop lying so much. I’ve found one reason among many that causes a lot of people to lie. People are too easily offended. They take everything to heart, and read negativity into plain facts. Or…
Act As If You Affect Everyone
I’m finally noticing a shift in the way people are thinking and behaving, and it’s a good thing. The knowledge that everyone is connected is slowly spreading and reaching more people. I truly believe that we are all connected. My actions not only affect me and the people I directly…
Why Do You Care What Other People Think?
I often wonder why any of us cares so much what other people think. I know, we’re taught to try to impress others and fit in, but after a certain age, shouldn’t we know better? Shouldn’t we have learned to be ourselves and not give a rip about what other…
Learn To Be More Honest
Unfortunately, honesty is a dying art in this world. We tell “little white lies” every day and think there’s nothing wrong with it. We mislead others with little or no thought to the consequences. We need to get back to honesty. Being honest isn’t always easy. There really is an…
Don’t Be Afraid To Make a Comment
I’ve noticed a sad trend in the world: People are afraid to speak. I know writers who are afraid to post their real thoughts on social networks or article sites for fear of what people will think. I’ve known readers who fear commenting for the same reason. It’s sad and…
We Should Be Improving Our Intelligence
In this modern age, people are getting dumber by the day. We’re using text speech, watching shows that reinforce idiotic ideas and dangerous behavior, reading things that have no value and not reading books. The American, and possibly the global, IQ is dropping, and we’re just calling it “the way…
Start Thinking, Stop Being Sheeple
Sheeple may be one of the biggest problems with the world today. For those who don’t know, sheeple are people who do whatever they’re told or whatever everyone else is doing and don’t think for themselves, much like mindless sheep. They don’t have the intelligence or sense of self to…
Love Yourself, No Matter What Anyone Else Says
I mentioned in a previous post how so many people are embracing superficial, finance-oriented values. That’s one of many reasons for each and every one of us to look inside ourselves and find all the things that make us amazing. We need to be able to love ourselves, no matter…
