Intersections with George Bennett(SA)

So much time is wasted on the human experience doing things that has no value. Talking about things that don't matter, and spending time on things that will never transform our life and the lives of others. We must become obsessed with this question '' What am I doing here?

14 years of education 6 hours in a classroom, additional 6 hours with people who don't realy know you, why because they allow their fear to limit them.

Success or failure comes down to one thing, taking a chance. If you decide to never step out of your house, get out of bed nothing will happen. You will not be burdened by the memories of failure because you never tried, so the next time you ask why are you not successful think about the last time you tried something new, something that you had very little knowledge of and was inspired to learn again. A new day also mean yesterday we died, what ever did not happen yesterday is in the past, all we have is right now..

This remains reality for most of us, stuck in our old habits, doing what we have always done. Never taking a chance, not willing to take risk's. Life is so short and is a one ticket only event, no one is coming back for a repeat experience so what are you waiting for.

The society we live in today is far more advanced then our ancestors, we have better tools and still we struggle.Perhaps it's because we have not worked on our ability to be better human beings we have ignored the real eduaction,how to be a brother, father and husband. We are consumed by the desired to have the latest Iphone and laptop forgetting that our lives are made better because we participate in it.

When things are going good for you we tend to attract many people, some we even call friends when they are only attracted to the celebration. Once the Celebration is done they bounce, they not there to provide support to us, they attracted to the gift and rewards related to the gift, so don't give the title of friend so easily to people who are not qualified.

If you have been on the receiving end of peoples hatred I can tell you it's not something to look forward to.I have come to learn that hurt people Hurt others because they have also been hurt. So that makes it certainly not OK but it provides a deeper understanding to us the people who are often on the receiving end of the actions, words and behavior.

Why do people committo something called a job, where they know this will not result in their happiness. Why do they choose a stressful existence where you are one pay check away from being homeless or food insecure, why do government's invest billions into social welfare instead of building the economy and fixing ailing infrastructure.

Life is a one ticket only event, we are all on a one way journey from birth to death we are traveling at light speed thru experiences that compel us to discover our individual identity, we must therefore develop the confidence to lead and break free form the culture of following.

What is the role of a parent if not to install confidence in the child.As a parent it's nit your job to discourage your child it's jour job to encourage them, when the fall to get back up, when they fail to try again. Many people who where kids become adults that have low self confidence, they don't believe they can do anything great.So they settle for mediocrity, they become part of the social fabric and then they die with all that potential and talent.
