  Knowledge Is Power.      Always the same sentence, over and over again. Knowing how to accomplish certain things in life is the key to unlocking your true power. Imagine somebody who doesn’t know how to connect their apartment up to the internet. How can that person unlock the internet to better advance their own interests? The answer is simple- they can’t. Knowing how to accomplish certain things, as well as when to look for help, is a valuable key.      Moving forward, we all must come to the realization that we are solely responsible for the progress we do or do not make. We must be the ones who understand that there is nobody responsible for our success or failure other than ourselves. We must become completely responsible and accountable for everything in our lives, from A to Z. No one else will help us in accomplishing and creating the path we so wish to walk on. We must be the ones who pulls our boots up and does the work ourselves. Only then,...

  The Start.      Finding a path to move forward on can be one of the best ways to begin. A ship with a favourable wind, helps it reach its destination. The ability to have guidance and direction, in a world full of noise, is a beautiful gift to say the least.      Helping others and being of service is one of the greatest ways to give back to humanity. The ability to work at something, to help others, will be the beginning of a better world. We all make choices in this life which help lead to the increase or demise of the planet. From what we eat, to how we speak. From what we chase, to what we ignore. Our impact here on Earth and society are greater than we can ever possibly imagine. We are powerful beyond measure.      Creating change can be difficult. Change is a habit which is tough to break. However, it is not impossible. Finding a will and a passion for the direction in which we are headed is the best way to unlock the power withi...

  United We Stand.      Divided we fall. Make no mistake, the most powerful people in the world know this well. They work endlessly, night and day, to divide the masses. To create such a hostile environment where we constant argue and bicker about everything, without ever realizing we’re being pushed towards conflict. It’s one of the oldest games in the book.      The question becomes: How can we move past the distractions? How can we overcome the evil which has been sent to destroy us? How do we unite the people towards a common cause? The question is one which is difficult to answer. One which required tremendous vision and leadership, instead of fear and distractions.      Bringing people together is a tremendous skill. The ability to take humans from all different forms of life, and unite them towards a common cause or goal, remains one of the greatest skills we humans poses. Think of how a sports team, located in the heart of the ci...

  The Cultural Revolution.      Last night, I watched an extremely moving interview. It was about a woman, who had moved to the United States, after living through the Chinese Revolution. The woman, whose name was Xi Van Fleet, talked about her experience in China, where their entire society changed, and how she saw tremendous parallels over here in the West.      Xi was a woman who was born into China, before it had become a Communist State. The current leader, Mao, had power, yet like all other dictators- craved more. He then split from his party, and formed his own movement. This movement, which Mao had identified himself as the leader, aimed at attacking the rich, upper class of Chinese families around the country, in order to have them fall. This allowed him to also accumulate more power, with less individuals standing in his way of total domination of the country.        Honestly, as an individual who is interested in history,...
