mannequin

I wonder why all the mannequins in the mall are example of a very fit body.

When there are lots of buyers are not that fit.

Why would you buy it if it doesn’t fit you.

A picture of a thousand words

NoKor and PH

Early this morning I have read news that the soldiers of North Korea are already malnourished. And I pity this soldiers who are starving to death because their government is putting priority on building nuclear weapons and bullying South Korea.
Unlike in North Korea, the Philippine soldiers especially some high ranking officials doesn’t experience any of this things. Malnourishment is not an issue with them. If just the whole world can see how big the tummy of this guys are; And how some police officer bullies civilian people. The world might laugh on the analogy of this soldiers.

What's common between the two?

 

 

You can glance on them, but you can’t stare on them…

 

Unless you wear this.

Why LeBron should get a ring (because)...

1.       Because the so called “Big Three or just 2.5 according to some, sacrifices a lot of money just to form this lineup.

2.       Because there will be a big party on Cleveland if he didn’t win a crown.

3.       Because he was dubbed as the next Michael Jordan.

4.       Because he was compared to Kobe.

5.       Because they think they are the next Ray Allen, Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett.

6.       Because he won the season MVP twice.

7.       Because he was an all-star seven times.

8.       Because he was a member of the NBA all defensive team thrice.

9.       Because the championship ring is the only thing that is missing in his collection.

10.   Because there is no excuse for him not to win.

Petsa de Peligro

Are you an employee? If your answer is yes, then this is possibly who you are.

You are an employee if you are living in the rat race. You are living in the rat race because you are always chasing the next pay day so you can pay your bills. You are an employee if most of the time you complain about your pay check. You complain because you think the Human Resource personnel missed out one of your overtime pay. You also complain because you think the HR personnel deduct too much on your pay check for the tax. You also probably complain about the benefits that your employer provides you. And along the way, you always fell on the same date of the month, petsa de peligro. This is the time where in you are already borrowing money from your friends because you are running out of money to go to your office. And even if you get promoted or you had your annual increase your pay check always seems not enough for you.

Did you ever ask your self when will these stop? Well the answer is when you get fired or you retire and become a bum. Of course it’s not a good way to escape the rat race.

If you’re going to look closely in the whole picture there are many things to escape the rat race. First is to have a regular lifestyle check and make sure that as you get promoted and have an increase you also do not have a promotion on the not so needed things and vices in your lifestyle. Make sure that as your salary increases your expenses is not also increasing. Second is to look for opportunities on building a passive income that can help you with your bills. As on the book of Robert kiyosaki “Rich Dad, Poor Dad”, those who have the mindset of the rich wouldn’t experience petsa de peligro because the money is the one working for them.

The Poor

Poor people are poor because they have a poor mindset. It is not because they belong to a poor government that they are also poor. It is also maybe because they had poor judgments on the early days of their lives. Poor education doesn’t really result to a poor life when you grow old. Having poor parents doesn’t mean that you will also die poor. There is this saying that “It’s not your fault when you are born poor, but it is your fault when you die poor”. Being a poor kid doesn’t mean that you also have poor chances to be wealthy. Having the mindset of the poor people will make you poorer.

The mindset of the rich people has a “how” on the beginning of their thoughts. Like “how can I have that”, “how can I afford that”. While on the other hand the poor peoples thought starts with “I can’t”. Having “I can’t” on your mind will make you stop thinking of ways to reach for your goal or dream. Having “how” on your mind makes you think of ways on how you will reach your dream or goal.

                Being poor or rich is not about your financial status. It’s about your mindset. If you have the mindset of the rich and you’re down financially, you will not be there forever. But if you have the mindset of the poor, don’t expect anymore that you can get out on the trap that you’re in.
