I would like to conduct a little survey

9 January 2012

The question is; “What project would you work on that is so exciting to you that you are willing to work almost for free. It would be a project you can devote yourself to because it really touches your heart and fulfills your needs. I use the word ‘project’ because it could be a for-profit [...]

Is Humanity Safe To Be Self-Governed

Lao Tzu wrote in the Tao Te Ching; ‘…To have harmony in the kingdom, keep the people’s belly full and bed warm.’ He was speaking of how to keep the country running peacefully through accepting the reality that if people are in want, they will react violently, even if that is self-defeating.

The Ultimate Mastermind Group

Religion. What better proof of the power from the combined force of large numbers of people for a single goal or purpose is there than religions.

This is exemplified by Richard Branson, a man with little education but now a billionaire with over 200 companies. [...]

Poor VS Super Rich

27 October 2010

For some people, struggle gives purpose, which is why people who are not rich, stay that way because if there is a struggle to survive, they have a purpose in their life. There is nothing worse than a life with no purpose and any purpose will do. Survival is a good purpose, so they maintain [...]
