Everything in life can be taken away from you and generally will be at some point.
Your wealth vanishes, the latest gadgetry suddenly becomes passé, your allies desert you.
But if your mind is armed with the art of war, there is no power that can take that away.
In the middle of a crisis, your mind will find its way to the right solution.
Having superior strategies at your fingertips will give your maneuvers irresistible force.
As Sun-tzu says, “Being unconquerable lies with yourself.
You don’t have what you want because you can’t stay focused, you get frustrated too easily, and you’re unable to wait for it to work.
It’s not a lack of information, it’s a lack of character.
The people who succeed most in life can do one thing for extraordinary amounts of time without needing immediate reward.
You don't lack self-esteem, you lack self-control.
Most people are so broke that they don't know how much KSH 1 BILLION is.
Do you people know what KSH 1 BILLION is?
With 1 BILLION:
You spend 100,000 DAILY for 27 YEARS and FIVE MONTHS.
Why, then, do you accept it as normal when politicians steal 600 billion?
Reading books and materials that go beyond what is required is always a good starting point. Being exposed to ideas in the wide world, you will tend to develop a hunger for more and more knowledge.
I have some advice for young men newly employed,
When you get employed:
• Be grateful to God, your parents, your mentors and your boss for this opportunity
• Work hard
• Respect your employer
• Adhere to your employer's rules and protocols
• Embrace the mission and vision of the employer
However, if working for your employer becomes unbearable due to other reasons,
• Quit respectfully
• Follow the procedures of quitting as written in your contract or employment letter
• Return your employer's resources in your custody
• Handover politely and thank your employer for giving you an opportunity
• Leave with a clean conscience
Don't be chaotic, abusive and contemptuous on your way out.
Don't think you are smarter than your employer.
The employer you are disrespecting gave you a livelihood when you were seeking a footing and direction.
The employer may not have paid you to your satisfaction, but be polite.
Don't go bad mouthing your employer, speaking nastily, and broadcasting your foul mouth while disclosing what is considered private policies, programs, products or services of your former workplace.
Leave courteously.
This way, you open room for better opportunities, newer networks and better leverage.
Don't be a rude employee. Other employers will fear giving you opportunities in the future because they don't trust you.
Be courteous when you close the door behind you, the universe will be kind to you on your way out.
@ICannot_Enough It would require manufacturing solar panels & radiators on the Moon and launching them into deep space with a mass driver.
Well before that, conventional money will no longer be relevant. Mass & energy will take the place of dollars.
It is humbling to consider that if we harness just 1 millionth of the Sun’s power for AI, that will be much more than a million times the intelligence of all of humanity
