Lets dig deep into the core of who we are.

Sympathy. I don't have any for you. Work harder.

Most of us, we haven't been through much of anything. You're using a computer right now. There's just no way you haven't realized how good you have it. Don't ever say that you can't do it because you're setting yourself up for failure.

Confucius once said that there are two kinds of people out there, those who say that they can do it, and those who say they can't, and they're usually both right.

It's bullshit. The whole, you can't do it. You've been through too much, that others don't understand. I want you to understand right now that if you want to change who you are, and you want to do something, then go and do it.

No it's not simple. Yes, you're going to struggle through the roughest parts of your life but until you don't grow up and face this world with every ounce of strength you have, you will not get anywhere.

You will fail if you don't put your heart and every ounce of motivation you have inside you toward your dreams. You will fail because you are weak. You rely on others for help and seek excuses before you even think about trying.

This isn't a fairy tale, this is real life, and just as it was 500 years ago, only those who are strong enough to survive, and those who want it more than anyone else, will survive. Everyone else will live their lives hoping something changes, and hoping that the miracles fall their way, without realizing that it is only themselves who have the power to change their destiny.

Work harder, because sympathy won't get you anywhere.

Watch Eric on the subject.

Cheers,
Daniel.

Taking control.

There is a certain freedom that lies within our minds that needs to be satisfied from time to time. We all have our ways, our methods to finding this freedom and for finding this satisfaction that our mind requires. In a complex variation of points, everything connects, and suddenly, it all makes sense. I don't know why I wrote that really, but my mind seems to want to write words to no reason, it seems to desire to speak. We are ready to go. The world is. We have reached endless amounts of opportunities and goals, and have quickly decided that in our time, everything would be possible. We went to the moon before we actually had personal computers, and now we're in the 21st century, and I stop and think, what is there to do? And it is then that I realize, we are failing. As the brilliant scholars that we are, we have yet to figure out the very system that will keep each and every human being at peace. We have yet to understand how to properly feed those who don't have ...

Finance

A small quote I came up with as I was going to bed last night, felt it was worth sharing: Don't buy depreciating assets unless they are a necessity and if so, buy them depreciated.

The light came through, Your peaceful smile, in truth. The surreal was still at bay But I did not know what my words would convey. I heard the silence pedal, I spent the days winning medals Hoping to protect my heart By covering it with metal. I'm trying to explain these walls, The shields and simple fears, I hope they don't reflect you away, But I do not know if you can stay. I buried myself deep within Behind this thick armor My wounds had frozen As I lay there, I burned the roses. A little heat was a sweet reminder Of my burnt past The loving pleasure and pain I ran from what would always remain. So when I glanced at you in disbelief, It was hard to mutter past my walls, But you saw past them with your own, By admitting what I had never known. The vulnerabilities we touch Let us know we are loved They acknowledge our shame And let us play our game With a silly smile, I finally got the courage I finally had the nerve, To yell past my wall...
