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 think this:  when our business succeeds, we all are rich, because we all have great jobs, including the founders, who receive a salary and their initial capital contribution is paid back, but the founders never receive a profit.  

This is a new type of business, which is perfectly capable of conquering problems on a local or international basis.  Climate change, clean water, healthy foods, teaching valuable skills to communities can all be part of social businesses that are designed to pay good wages and eliminate poverty.

Do you really want to make a difference in the world?  Do you want to use your brilliance to help people succeed in life?  Would you like to make poverty history?  Would you like to help create a world of zero net carbon emissions?  You can!

Read two of Dr. Yunus's books:  Building Social Business and A World of Three Zeroes.

You will get ideas.  You will realize:  Wow!  We can try this! Maybe this can work!

You and the world can prosper in all ways, if you read, think and try!

It may not be easy at times.  But it is Much Easier than doing nothing!

We all look for wisdom to better our lives.  These 2 books will introduce you to a new world of ideas and successes.

Be proud of yourself!  You will greatly surprise many people, including yourself, as you try new THRIVING IDEAS.  

Dream big!

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...
