Quote #2, My Thoughts, and YOUR Thoughts

I love Quotes.I love them because they make me think.What does the quoter mean? Why did he/she write this? Is there a message to get through to the reader/the world? What did YOU initially think when you read it?

Here goes blog quote #2....

"An infallable way to make your child miserable is to satisfy all his demands."

- Lord Kames-

The word that immediately came to my mind was SPOILED! How many bratty kids have you seen running around always getting what they want and are still very difficult to deal with?

Ever watch the classic movie, Willy Wonka? Remember Veruka? Daddy, I want this and I want it NOOWWW . She epidimises what this quote is all about. Give children( actually adults too) what they want, all the time, with out any regard for anything, and your asking for trouble.

Final point, I love the word DEMAND at the end of the quote. Isn't that really what kids are doing.. demanding? Who holds the purse strings anyway?

Thats my view..... WHAT SAY YOU?

A Great Quote, my thoughts, and YOUR thoughts?

Thats the basis of this blog. Here goes......

"Prosperity depends more on wanting what you have than having what you want."
- Geoffery Abert-


I believe the message here is you are very prosperous and fortunate if you can enjoy and appreciate what you have, regardless of how much or little the quantity. There are many who have a ton, yet remain unsatisfied, desireous of more, and miserable. They don't GET IT. On the flip side there are people who have little, yet are always bright, cheery, and showing gratitude for what HAS come their way.

As Abert's message says..... its the ones that embrace what they have that are content. Perhaps he is gently reminding us all of that little fact and giving us a small yet invaluable secret towards a more enjoyable life.

Thats my view..... WHAT SAY YOU?

How GOOD is this Quote?

This quote just slapped me in the face this morning. I think it ia 1050% Right On!

The great at Jim Rohn commented on people complaining.....

"If you spend five minutes complaining, you've just wasted five minutes."

He further explains..........

"If you continue complaining, it won't be long before they haul you off to a financial desert and leave you to choke on the dust of your own regret."


As I age, I am getting less tolerant of people complaining. We all have our own issues to deal with, our own crosses to bear. Occasionally, its ok to DISCUSS and get a bit of empathy from others. But get it out, get it out quickly and move on. Don't get stuck on complaints.

Thats my view... WHAT SAY YOU??
