The Problems Of Those Who Are Suffering, Will Eventually Become The Problems Of Those Who Are Not

"The Problems Of Those Who Are Suffering, Will Eventually Become The Problems Of Those Who Are Not." - David Julio Wang

This is one of the reasons why it is essential for those human beings who are doing well in life, to be constantly thinking of how to help lift up those fellow human beings who are stuck.

The real reason should be though :

"If Any Human Being Deserves To Have A Good Life, Than Every Human Being Deserves To Have A Good Life."

There's plenty on our planet for everyone.
Every human being is a collection of the stuff of stars, filled to exploding with limitless potential.
...creating a system of human society designed to limit, not cultivate, is a crime, and a waste of a sentient species beginning its exciting journey towards the infinity of experiences the universe has to offer.

People are different.
Elements are different.
It is ridiculous to ask Oxygen to act as Copper, or Mercury to behave like Hydrogen.
It is ridiculous to ask all people to fit into standard molds in a society.
Every person is unique, and needs a unique journey.

The first step towards that :
the end of standardized schools, the beginning of organic places of learning (e.g. The Velja Approach)

To conclude, Buddha knew it best.
The Princes of a society have a duty to their fellow human beings who are suffering, to journey inside and find the way to insure everyone is living a life which is on the path to health, joy and personal enlightment.

Any Achievement Is A Truly Human Success When Even A Child Can Understand It.

"Any Achievement Is A Truly 'Human' Success When Even A Child Can Understand It." - Paraphrased from Albert Einstein

Original Quote

"all physical theories, their mathematical expressions apart ought to lend themselves to so simple a description 'that even a child could understand them. " - P. 418 of Einstein: His Life and Times by Ronald W. Clark

Problems Cannot Be Solved By The Same Kind Of Thinking Which Created Them In The First Place

"Problems Cannot Be Solved By The Same Kind Of Thinking Which Created Them In The First Place." - Paraphrased from Albert Einstein

The original quote is :

"A new type of thinking is essential if mankind is to survive and move toward higher levels." - ATOMIC EDUCATION URGED BY EINSTEIN, page 13 of the New York Times May, 25, 1946

Einstein further commented on the quote in an article published on the 23rd of June :

"
Today we must abandon competition and secure cooperation. This must be the central fact in all our considerations of international affairs; otherwise we face certain disaster. Past thinking and methods did not prevent world wars. Future thinking must prevent wars."

Suppression Of A Thing Only Reinforces Its Existence

"Suppression Of A Thing Only Reinforces Its Existence." - David Julio Wang

"When You Suppress Something, You Only Serve To Further Entrench It, Making It That Much Harder To Move." - David Julio Wang

You Can Save A Person

"You Can Save A Person From A Burning Building.
You Can Save A Person From A Raging River.
You Can Save A Person From Careening Off A Cliff.
You Can Save A Person From Anything,
If You Are Strong Enough." - David Julio Wang

In a world which emphasizes self-sufficiency and solving one's own problems, all under the mantle of "independence", the simple fact that sometimes people get so stuck they absolutely need the help of others to pull them out, becomes a mark of shame and weakness.

What do you believe?

I believe that when people are pulled out of their bad spot , loved, supported and given time to heal, they want to get going again and become an active contributor to society.

Leaving people in bad spots is the mark of an immature society.

Steve Jobs - "Don't Settle."

“Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don’t lose faith. I’m convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You’ve got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don’t settle.
-Steve Jobs, 2005 Stanford Commencement Speech

Self-Confidence Is The Coin With Which You Can Buy The Experiences You Want In Life

"Self-Confidence Is The Coin With Which You Can Buy The Experiences You Want In Life." - David Julio Wang

Our world is money based.
Making money enables a person to have the experiences they want, thus making money becomes the most important focus of our lives.
But, in fact, money is inconsequential when juxtaposed with the importance of self confidence .
With self confidence , a person can make all the money they desire.
Money is seen for what it truly is , a simple tool , and nothing more.

----

Money seen this way , makes money trivial .

----

Experiences which give a person self confidence ,
increasing the quantity , how much self confidence a person has , gives a person everything they need to go out there and get the experiences they want in life.
