Make Money

  2. To believe is to accept unquestionably as fact that which cannot be demonstrated to be fact.
  3. People will believe what they want to believe, regardless of whether they can be sure it’s true.
  4. People who demand tolerance from others are frequently the most intolerant themselves.
  5. You’ll be judged not on what you say but on what you do. Talk is cheap, but only results matter.

  1. People will always have problems in need of solutions. If you can be that solution, you can make a good living.
  2. When your opinions run counter to the fashionable dogma of the day, you’re unlikely to get a fair hearing in the media.
  3. Past wrongs cannot be righted. All we can do is learn from any mistakes made and endeavour to do better next time.
  4. No job is more important than being a good parent because parents nurture the next generation, and children are the future.
  5. A promotion at work is not a reward for what you’ve done in the past; it’s an opportunity to show what you can do in the future.
  6. When everything’s going well and you’re feeling like you can do no wrong, think twice. You’re more vulnerable than you realise.
  7. We live in a world of Orwellian ‘newspeak’ where we’re expected to accept as fact that which everyone knows is complete nonsense.
  8. The world is full of Charlatans and con artists, all claiming to know what’s best for the rest of us. They should all be challenged constantly.
  9. Having a fancy job title doesn’t mean you’re more important than someone else. A job is just a job, and we all add value in our own way.
  10. We have to deal with reality as it is and not how we like it to be. So, we must protect ourselves and our interests because no one will do it for us.

Facts about life (46-54):

  1. Extreme political movements are usually a lot of useful idiots led by a few sinister people with an agenda that’s in no one’s interests but theirs.
  2. We’ll keep making the same mistake until we learn the lesson the mistake was intended to teach us. Life is a classroom, and the lessons never stop.
  3. A question asked comes with no obligation to provide anything other than a polite response. Remember that should you ever be grilled by the media.
  4. Remaining loyal to the circumstances into which you were born is not a noble act. Just because you were born poor doesn’t mean you have to remain poor.
  5. We live in an age when a lack of knowledge or expertise doesn’t mean people will not have an opinion on a given issue that they expect to be taken seriously.
  6. It’s for us to give our lives meaning. To leave a legacy by doing something that’ll add a little value to the lives of others and make the world a slightly better place.
  7. If you don’t tend to your own garden regularly, it will be quickly attacked by noxious weeds. Life’s like that too. We must all take good care of that which is precious to us.
  8. An employer will replace you in a heartbeat, should you pass away, but to your loved ones you can never be replaced. That should tell you where your priority should be.
  9. History serves as a series of lessons to us all. We cannot be selective about what we include in our history, otherwise, we risk forgetting the lessons and making the same mistakes again.

Facts about life (55-60):

  1. Drawing attention to injustices, wherever they are, really can make a difference. So don’t be afraid to call out those who seek to harm others for doing nothing other than expressing an opinion.
  2. To remain silent is to be irrelevant. A quiet life will come at a cost to you. The cost is people with louder voices moving the world in a direction you may not like. Speak up or live with the consequences.
  3. In a totalitarian world dissenting voices must be crushed ruthlessly or they might influence others to express dissent too. Political ideologues demand subservience and dogma accepted without question.
  4. If your job can be done from anywhere, then someone anywhere can do your job? So, if a company is looking to reduce costs, in order to increase their profits, jobs will be moved to wherever in the world labour is cheapest.
  5. Extreme ideology can pass into the mainstream and take hold if we’re all too complacent to stay on top of what’s going on. If we’re asleep at the wheel, life can quickly become a car crash and we’ll only have ourselves to blame.
  6. If we judge previous generations through the prism of modern sensibilities, they’ll always look bad. They lived in their time and we live in ours. We cannot know what their lives were really like, so we cannot judge them fairly, nor should we try.

Facts about life (61-65):

  1. It doesn’t matter how good a job you do, others will take credit for your contribution long after you’ve gone, but you’ll be the person responsible for any problems, regardless of whether you actually had anything to do with any of them or not.
  2. Celebrities are nothing more than skilled media manipulators who profit from the public’s gullibility by constantly maintaining an image with the aim of creating the illusion that they’re something special when in fact they’re nothing special at all.
  3. The problem with social media today is that far too many people feel the need to express opinions consistent with the latest fashionable dogma currently trending regardless of whether they actually have any significant knowledge of the subject at all.
  4. Unless your ambition is to secure a job for which having a degree is mandatory, then you’re probably wasting three years of your life and $75,000 of debt by going to university nowadays. You’re unlikely to get a return on the debt you incur, so consider your options carefully.
  5. They say that those with the gold make the rules. Well, if you’re not being served in the way you feel you should be, then whoever’s providing you with that service can be reminded of the purchasing power you hold in your hands by a simple boycott. You don’t have to accept the unacceptable.

21 thought-provoking quotes about fathers

Today I’ve curated some quotes about fathers.

It’s easy to overlook the importance of fathers, and often fathers themselves can overlook the importance of their essential role in life. In particular, fathers can sometimes view their work as a more important role.

I’m not suggesting that work’s not important, because it is, of course. After all, by earning a living, we can put bread on the table and a roof over our heads, as well as those of our loved ones.

Socialising is also important because through it we can relax and alleviate stress.

However, the role of a parent is more important than any of these because children are the future. And children need a father as well as a mother.

As a father, you’re not just a sperm donor. You should be a provider and protector to ensure that children get the best possible start in life.

You should offer support to their mother too, as that will also help your children.

However, more than any of that, to your sons, you’re a role model, and to your daughters, you are an example of how men treat women.

You should also be an authority figure, as it’s important that children are brought up within a moral framework, and they should know where the boundaries are and what the penalties will be should there be any transgression.

Well-adjusted, well-behaved, and well-educated young people are the future of any civilization, and fathers have an important role to play in making that happen.

So today I offer you 21 thought-provoking quotes about fathers to highlight the importance of why I think men have been placed upon this earth.

21 thought-provoking quotes about ignorance

If quotes about ignorance are what you seek, this post is for you.

To be ignorant, one lacks education and knowledge. Therefore, ignorance implies a lack of awareness.

Additionally, it means that we are unaware of information and facts.

Also, it means we lack an understanding and/or appreciation of other people and their ways.

It can also mean that we deliberately ignore or disregard what’s going on around us and the impact of our actions on other people and society.

It can also imply technical ignorance, whereby we’re unaware of how something is done or should be done.

So today I offer you 21 thought-provoking quotes about ignorance to help you reflect a little more on its significance and why we should avoid it.

Being ignorant reflects badly on us generally, and it should never be seen as a badge of honour.

Ignorance goes together with stupidity, and that’s not something of which we can be proud.

The cure for ignorance is education, and that’s a lifelong process.

You don’t have to go to college or university, but you must educate yourself constantly to hone your skills and avoid making stupid mistakes through ignorance.

An investment in your education will pay the best dividends. That is a fact.

  7. Ignorance is by far the biggest danger and threat to humankind. ~Moza bint Nasser
  8. It’s innocence when it charms us, ignorance when it doesn’t. ~Mignon McLaughlin

  11. Democracy is a pathetic belief in the collective wisdom of individual ignorance. ~L. Mencken

21 powerful quotes by Martin Luther King Jr that’ll make you think

Today, let’s explore some quotes by Martin Luther King Jr. There are people for whom there is universal respect. One such person is the late, great Martin Luther King Jr.

Synonymous with the civil rights movement in the United States, Martin Luther King Jr was its most visible spokesperson and leader.

1. Stop comparing yourself to others:

Everyone is on their unique journey through life, and you’re on yours. There is no comparison.

A major issue for people today is the way social media makes it almost inevitable that we compare ourselves to others. We see so much of what they’re doing every time we pick up our smartphones.

It can be easy to believe that they’re doing better than us. Then we fall into the trap of feeling inadequate or not good enough.

Remember, social media creates a false view of reality.

The idea that everyone is doing well except you is simply misleading. Everyone has their fair share of life’s problems, despite anything social media might suggest. Everyone struggles from time to time.

So, don’t compare yourself to what you believe others are doing. Instead, focus on your progress and accomplishments.

2. Embrace your flaws:

No one is perfect, and it’s important to remember that everyone has flaws.

Instead of focusing on your flaws and feeling bad about them, try to find ways to embrace them.

For example, if you have freckles, embrace them as a unique feature of your face.

Perhaps you’re not good with words. So what? There are plenty of people who are not good with words. So, make a joke about it rather than let it bother you. Make it part of your authenticity and personal charm.

3. Focus on the positive:

We can all find ourselves thinking about all the negative things in our lives. It’s human nature really, but focusing on the negative can have a detrimental effect on self-esteem.

So, instead, make a habit of focusing on the positive things in your life.

This can be as simple as writing down three things you are grateful for daily. There’s always something for which we can be grateful, even if it’s just a favourite television show or enjoying coffee with a friend.

4. Surround yourself with positive people:

We are the people with whom we mix. Human beings are social animals, and we live within groups. The people within those groups can have a significant impact on our self-esteem.

Being accepted by the group requires us to be a reflection of the other members. If they’re cynical, sarcastic, and negative, then we gradually become the same, if only to fit in. However, that negativity is not good for our self-esteem.

So, we need to spend time with people who uplift us and make us feel good about ourselves. Therefore, we must avoid those people who bring us down or make us feel bad about ourselves.

5. Treat yourself with kindness:

The way we talk to ourselves can have a big impact on self-esteem.

We must be kind to ourselves and avoid negative self-talk.

We must talk to ourselves as we would to a friend. If a friend came to us with a problem, we would be supportive and understanding, right?

So, why wouldn’t we want to treat ourselves with the same kindness?

We must always be kind to ourselves.

6. Set goals and achieve them:

Nothing boosts our confidence and self-esteem like an achievement.

So, setting and achieving goals can be a great way to boost self-esteem.

We start by setting small, achievable goals and work our way up to bigger ones.

As we achieve our goals, we start to feel more confident in ourselves and our abilities. It’s a virtuous circle.

7. Take care of yourself physically:

Our physical health and well-being are essential to self-esteem.

Taking care of ourselves is important for our overall well-being and can also help improve our self-esteem.

So, we must make sure we are getting enough sleep, eating well, and getting regular exercise. When we take care of ourselves, we feel better both physically and mentally.

8. Practice emotional self-care:

Our emotional well-being is as important as our physical health.

So, we must learn to take care of ourselves emotionally by taking time to relax and do the things we enjoy.

This can be anything from reading a book to taking a long bath, going for a walk, or listening to a favourite piece of music.

9. Learn something new:

When we possess knowledge, we tend to get the respect of others. And obviously, that’s good for our self-esteem.

So, learning something new can be a great way to boost self-esteem.

It can be something small, like learning a new recipe, or something bigger, like taking a class.

The act of learning something new can make you feel accomplished and can help to build self-confidence.

10. Give it time:

It takes time and effort to build self-esteem, but by incorporating these tips into our daily lives, we can improve.

23 quotes to inspire you to think bigger

Today, let’s explore some quotes to inspire you to think bigger.

If you’re thinking anyway, you might as well think big, or so the saying goes.

Far too many people underestimate their ability, what they can do, and what they can achieve.

If you want to make your mark on this world, you must think big. To make your mark, you’ll need to make a difference. You’ll need to stand out head and shoulders above the crowd.

That can be a lonely place to be, of course. However, the rewards can be extraordinary.

Rewards can be in terms of recognition. They can be financial too. And let’s not forget that such rewards have the potential to include your place in history.

Does that sound a little dramatic?

Well, other people leave their mark on history, so why not you?

Too many people fear trying in case they fail. However, there is no such thing as failure, just opportunities to learn, to hone your skills, and then have another go with a better understanding of what will and won’t work.

You must believe in yourself, dear reader. Self-belief is an essential ingredient for success. Others don’t need to believe in you, but you must feel you have whatever it takes to do it, whatever it is.

Remember, you’re as good as anyone. If you dig deep, you’ve got what it takes.

Here are 23 quotes to inspire you to think bigger.

60 Quotes by Donald Trump to get you thinking

Today I thought it would be interesting to explore some quotes by Donald Trump. Love him or hate him, we certainly cannot ignore him.

Donald John Trump is well-known as an American politician, media personality, and businessman. A member of the Republican Party, he is the 47th president of the United States and he was formerly the 45th president.

Trump was born in New York City and graduated from the University of Pennsylvania. He became the president of his family’s real estate business in 1971, renamed it the Trump Organization, and began acquiring and building skyscrapers, hotels, casinos, and golf courses.

Despite experiencing some business bankruptcies, he’s had the resilience to bounce back and re-establish himself.

From 2004 to 2015, he hosted the reality television show The Apprentice.

His fans love him, and the political establishment loathes him, but he’s successful and it’s always interesting to try to understand how successful people tick.

So here are 60 quotes by Donald Trump which I think provide us with some insight into Trump the man and what drives him and his presentational style.
