About Me

My photo
Hello my fellow Politiores Troglodytes. This Blog is a collection of Posts, Poems, & Short Stories that I write on a daily basis. If you find it entertaining, informative, and controversial, then I have done my job properly. Thank goodness too, because Karma has been on my case of late. I'm supposed to bring fifty people into the fold or I'll have to give back the part of Einstein's brain I inherited. No, I'm not one of the Scientists who got a piece of his brain when he died. Karma said, "Eat this knowledge. It'll make you smarter!" The bargain I made with Karma was, if I could change fifty people into Politiores Populos, I would be rewarded with my very own Lamborghini. So, that's my story and I'm sticking to it! Like what you're reading, then read on. P.S. Populo is Latin for people. Politiores is Latin for educated. Troglodytes is English for troglodytes. And Einstein's brain was stolen by Thomas Stoltz Harvey after his death in 1955 and eventually divvied up into 240 pieces. If you just read that last sentence, then you have just learned something and I'm just that much closer to fulfilling my commitment to Karma!

Motivate Yourself

OK,
this is the second in a series of three lessons I have discovered in my lifetime that am willing to share with you.
The first lesson was yesterday called,
It Takes Up All Your Precious Time.
Where,
doing the drug of your choice takes a lot of time away from your life where you could be doing something more constructive instead. 
Some of you who read this will be thinking,
"This is just another old guy telling us how to live our lives."
 Well,
I've known these facts for most of my life,
but couldn't do anything about it because my mind kept telling me to
PARDEE!
As my
Texas
girlfriend,
Debbie,
used to pronounce it.
She was beautiful too,
but our
PARDEE
always got in the way of our happiness.
Enough about that.
You can either take the advice
and see if it applies to your life
or dismiss it.
It's up to you.
Self Motivation.
No one is going to help you motivate yourself,
only you.
Your
Parents
will say encouraging words to you,
but most people don't listen to their
Parents.
Because they are your
Parents.
It's a natural reaction.
And not all
Parents
are good.
So,
besides your
Parents,
if they are good ones,
or a close
Loved One,
most people you meet in life are going to discourage you
or have negative things to say about you.
This proverb is true.
"Misery loves company."
Most people will try to hold you back because they don't want to see you succeed.
Because if you do,
in their low self esteem,
they feel you are better than them!
So,
they will try to hold you down,
or hold you back,
or however they can spoil your progress in life.
Start telling yourself,
"I am a good person, I do have talent, I am Intelligent, I do have something to offer to this world, and I can become the person I always dream of becoming."
Saying those phrases once a day,
when you wake up,
is the best way of changing a negative mind.
Positive Re-Enforcement
 will eventually wipe away the doubt that you have,
and help you work towards your goals with confidence.
"No one is going to help you succeed, but you!"
Say that one once a day too.
That's the one I always used to change my mindset.
I motivated myself in becoming the lovable person I am today.
And knowledgeable too!
One more thing.
Don't ever think of yourself as a failure.
There are different levels of success.
Say you wanted to become a
Movie Star,
but you end up on a
TV Sitcom
for only one year,
was on an off
Broadway Stage Show
most of the next couple of years,
and then end up making about
20 TV Commercials.
In reality,
you have made a really good living at what you love to do,
but might not have reached the heights of fame that
Tom Cruz
did.
Hardly anyone ever does.
So ask yourself this.
The
Actress
who plays
Flo
on those
TV Commercials,
do you think she feels she is a failure!
This is,
Never Failed In Life,
Just Reached Different Levels Of Success!
Jim Hauenstein,

And,

“Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.”
- Winston S. Churchill -


That is my story and I am sticking to it!
