What You Should Be In 2010

This is my first post and my hands are trembling already...but I have a massage for all ya Warriors. It is about being one or all of the under listed...

Be brave ... the only thing we have to fear is fear itself so you want to keep this emotion far from you this year if you want to make any head way. Fear is actually a good, especially if it is the fear of God. Aside from this you have no business fearing the unknown, but to mind your business you have to be brave. It is said that many people die from the fear of their own fear...need I say more?

Be thrifty... I am not attempting to change the meaning of this word, but I think it means investing all one can, saving all one can, giving all one can, and spending all one can. Remember, the best time to start saving for your retirement is now... with your very first pay check if you are just starting. If you have joined the gravy train for a long while, this advice is probably belated as far as you are concern.

Be patient... nothing comes easy they say...and the patient dog still eats the fattest bone. Someone once said hoping and waiting is not my way of doing things... so, don't let your patience be mistaken for lack of ambition. We occupy different positions in the world; one of which is the middle ground.

Be watchful... on the road, at the work place, in the market, in your house and on the internet there is a need to be vigilant. You never know, someone might seek to out smart you. It is your fault if you are outsmarted this year.

Be cultured... if the only medicine to asking is giving, then it stands to reason that the only way to fight ignorance is through education. Learn something about everything... you don't have to be a jack of all trade, but know a little thing about everything... what you don't know will not only hurt it will hunt you and you can't blame me.

Be free... Are you finding it difficult acting on your own? It means you will lack the energy to be brave, thrifty, and watchful. You must learn to peddle your own canoe but you can't effectively do this if you lack good judgment and this is what freedom can do for you.

Be helpful... there is a saying: if you do good things you do for yourself, if you do bad things you do for yourself. If what goes around comes around, then the foregoing is true and so is the law of sowing and reaping. Now tell me... what does a candle loses when it kindles another? Nothing! So, never let the opportunity of helping a newbie or even a pro slip through your hands... you never know.

Be rational... this is like saying be critical in every sense of it. Appearance is deceptive and it is not possible to please everyone. So if you must be critical, people will misunderstand you needn't bother as they will get used to this with time. Believe in your judgment; where it fails make amends immediately for there is no shame in making up and there is much of it in breaking up.

Be positive ... it is easy to criticize people, yet it is also very hard to stomach criticism. Criticism is good but only when it is constructive. You don't always need to praise somebody in public and reprimand him or her in private. Pass the message across as discretely as possible... do it in good spirit...apply humor and above all love.

Take it or leave it, love rules the world. There is more good than bad and the best way to promote good is for us to tolerate each other. The society has everything it needs to survive, but as long as we keep seeing ourselves from religious and racial lenses, there is no way the world will forge ahead of course the more positive ones will.

Be simple... one of the manifestations of simplicity is the fresh yet substantial and magnificent feelings you experience when your conscience is void of offense even towards our four footed brethren. Simplicity if I remember very well is a polysemous word... I mean you should be good, but if you can't be the less bad you can be.

Thanx
