Think And Grow Rich

Born and raised in a middle class family with my parents both working in the finance Industry, I was cultivated to understand the significance of a good business sense in mind. When I was in elementary school, my mom would sit aside

“As I see it today, the ability to read awoke inside me some long dormant craving to be mentally alive,” wrote Malcolm X. As I grew up I really wasn’t a reader. Slowly as I continue to read I started to enjoy it .Today I love to sit and read a good book every now and then. Maybe someday I will write my own book.

This relates to different matters. First of all, the kids of wealthy parents, should not depend on their parent’s money, and they should learn how to become independent on their own. This applies to common people like me as well, in that we should not rely on someone to bail us out, like our parents, and that way we can control where our money comes and goes. Being rich is one thing, staying rich is a totally different category from what I learned in this book. Knowing what is more important to you is also part being disciplined, because that way you will not spend money on worthless items like so many people with high incomes do, and they end up not accumulating

Becoming wealthy swiftly might be working wonders for some Americans, but for the rest of them, the broadening gap between the rich and the poor is making them lose faith in the “American Dream”; moreover, this gap forces the middle-class Americans to focus only on their careers which allow family values to lose its importance.

I really enjoyed the “Think and Grow Rich-A Black Choice” video. The speaker Dennis Gimbro was very engaging, and interesting. The essential message I acquired from the video was “Failure is not failure until you accept it as such.” What I take from this is, just because someone has “failed” at a single thing, does not mean they have failed overall, in fact, it does not even have to mean they have failed. The “failure” can be a lesson; it is common to hear the phrase “people learn from their mistakes,” and this is kind of what I relate to this, people learn from their failures. If ones makes it so, it possible to take a mistake, or a failure, and to analyze what went wrong, how the situation can be improved, and how one can better themselves. That is what I think Gimbro is saying; if you fail, do not give up, keep trying and pushing as hard as you can, and turn that failure into a success. However, you accept that you have failed, and give up, quit trying,

At a low point in her life, with her father recently passed away and her business came close to collapse, Rhonda’s daughter had given her a copy of The Science of Getting Rich, a book written in 1910 by Wallace D. Wattles. When reading this book Rhonda stated that: “Something inside of me had me turn the pages one by one, and I can still remember my tears hitting the pages as I was reading it...” This book changed her life, and it was based on the practice of positive thinking.

Bermondsey may be understood to mean Beornmund’s island but while Beornmund represent an Old English personal name, identifying an individual once associated with the place, the element „-ey” represents Old English „eg”, for „island”, „piece of firm land in a fen” or simply a „place by a stream or river”. Bermondsey escorts inform that thus Bermondsey need not have been an island as such in the Anglo-Saxon period, and is as likely to have been a higher, drier spot in an otherwise marshy area. Bemondsey escorts know that though Bermondsey’s earliest written appearance is in the Domesday Book of 1086, it also appears in a source which, though surviving only in a copy written at Peterborough Abbey in the 12th century, claiming “ancient rights”

It's one thing to become the president of a company and another thing to develop a successful company. On numerous occasions, people hear stories about how investing companies lure other people into purchasing their goods and services. Moreover, these companies use false advertising often to exploit their customers. Most of the time, these companies state how they will spruce up a customer's investment repertoire and how it will make them rich. However, the results remain the contrary. To expound further, these companies have taken away too much money from their clients in order to produce a profit. However, business professionals such as James Dondero have used their expertise to reverse this trend.

The chapter is 12 and the verses are 13 through 21. The parable is the one of The Rich Fool and his greed. The story is told by Jesus while he is in a gathering of thousands of people and a statement arises that allows him to preach on objects with only earthly value, as well as the greed of people towards those objects, and what we should do to fight that greed and please God (Hendrix, The Parables of Jesus, p. 96 ). Jesus tells us this parable in the form of the indirect question. This means that the question does not come from Jesus or one of the members of the crowd, but instead it is integrated into the character of the parable( Lecture notes, The Parables of Luke, April 12, 2016). So in the case of Luke 12: 13-21, the question is

In this ever changing world, it's important to have a theory of knowledge, when at times others action seem to be without regards but yet will attest that they have a belief in God as the creator. But then their foundation becomes unsure when other comes with a theory not base on Knowledge, but on an accident that came about as the result of the fall of man which cause the cosmic. Furthermore, in considering the event that's occurring in the world today it would not be wrong to state the many people believe that there is a God who is the controller of the universe, and at the same time are swayed to entertained naturalism. This entertainment has cause some to combine their views, as a way to stay nature. In the book "The Advancement,"

When I walk through the door, I immediately know where I am. I’ve been coming here since I was just a kid. It’s the beach house we go to as a family every summer. Just thinking about being there makes me really happy as I remember all the great memories I have of that place. I remember the first time my older cousin brought her future husband to meet our family. I remember the first time I got to hold my baby cousin. I look back over years I can see my family growing up as my grandparents decide to retire, my aunt and uncle get married and have kids, my cousins graduating from high school and college, and one is now even married and has a kid on the way.

It is a harsh reality that in today’s business world there are a lot of dumb, foolish idiots that are extremely successful. Why should someone so unintelligent and perhaps less passionate and dedicated be so monetarily successful in the business world? According to the researcher Laurie Varga, people are more inclined towards success due to the personality traits that are found more frequently in foolish people than in sharp and intelligent people (Varga). Also, there are quite a few factors that lead to success that have nothing to do with intelligence or lack thereof. Mainstream media and school systems teach people that the way to success is thru intelligence. However, people who are not intelligent have constantly been found to be successful time and time again. Bob Hoffman, who created one of the world’s most influential marketing and advertising blogs states that out of all the people he met in business, the majority were “astonishingly stupid” (Hoffman)

In this day and age, who wouldn’t want to have a comfortable life and become financially independent? Probably most of the people would rather just be sipping coffee while reading a newspaper and just wait for their bank accounts to fill up each day or week. But how can that possibly happen?
