Mastery of Life

 I came across two incredible quotes from Ingvar Kamprad, the billionaire founder of IKEA.

Here's the first one:  "The most dangerous poison is the feeling of accomplishment.  The antidote is to every evening think what can be better done tomorrow."

Strong words!

Here's the 2nd quote:  "Happiness is not reaching your goal.  Happiness is being on the way."

What can we do better tomorrow?

We are happy, because we are on the way to achieving our goal.

Now whether you run an ultra business, a social business or are working a job, or you want your candidates to get elected, what GREATER THING can we be looking at now?

What Greater Thing can we be doing now?

As great as things might be today (or maybe not so great), you can always make things better tomorrow.

Maybe you achieved a goal today.  But tomorrow morning, you might spot a GIGANTICALLY great goal, and take one or two steps towards that goal!

The Republican Party has had 41 years to remake the State in their image, and many people say:  Really?  Same old, same old?  No changes, nada, is the innovation of the Party of Lincoln?

The Libertarian Party and the Democratic Party are underdogs, and still try to say to the voters--here is a new way.

In the spirit of Ingvar Kamprad, I will say to you:   

Be glad you accomplish something on Thursday.  But be HUNGRY on Friday to do something better!

Happiness will always BE You, as you are on your way to greater goals in life!

Surprise yourself!

If the idea is in your Mind, it CAN HAPPEN, Now!

Dream big!

Vote Libertarian!
Vote for Alex Martin, District 20, State Senate!
Thank you very much!

Wisdom to prosper by

In this review of Building Social Business by Muhammad Yunus, they summarize his book with 2 succinct paragraphs: "In recent years Dr. Yunus has moved beyond just lending to the poor; his new  goal is to eliminate poverty entirely , and his method is to spread the practice of social business, a self-sustaining, “zero-loss, zero-dividend” business model that applies not only to microfinance but to any good or service provided to the poor to ensure communities become self-sufficient.  Building Social Business includes is the  step-by-step guideline for entrepreneurs to create their own social businesses , as well as its report on two more years of Grameen Bank’s joint venture social businesses."  https://ourgoodbrands.com/building-social-business/ The idea is huge:  eliminate poverty by creating a social business. It is a new kind of wisdom.   Instead of assuming that when you or I get rich, others get poor(zero sum thinking);  instead think t...

How Can Live Your Dream Every Day

Here are some great ideas from Dr. Yunus, 2006 Nobel Prize Winner.  He encourages us all to think in the best possible terms:   “Think and Act Like Job Creators” "Another area that Yunus is passionate about is creating a world without unemployment. He believes that we can create that world by encouraging the youth to think and act like job creators. He worries that today’s youth is only focused on seeking salaried jobs, rather than being able to think from an entrepreneurial perspective. This is especially a problem since the number of salaried jobs available has not kept pace with the demand in regions such as Bangladesh." “ A job is an old-fashioned idea from the twentieth century,” states Yunus. He believes that the popular idea of jobs did not exist until after the industrial revolution (with the arrival of current education system). To encourage the second generation of Grameen Bank loan-seekers to be entrepreneurial, he tells them, “How did your mother manage to create...
