getting there, staying there!

Hi, how have you been? Just thought you might like to take a sneak peep at the book i was (or so i thought) writing.
I titled it “getting there, staying there” (philosophical,right?). it ws a result of my daily sights and musing a few years back and though i havent practised much of it myself, i came accross my manuscripts a few weeks ago and i’v decided to take any bull,by its horn. I hope you enjoy reading it, learn from it and act on it.


PREFACE:

“Land was wealth 300 years ago, so the person who owned the land owned the wealth. Then it was factories and production, and america rose to dominance. Today, it is information. And the person who has the most timely information oowns the wealth. The problem is information flies all around the world at the speed of light. New wealth cannot be contained by boundaries as land and factories were. The changes will be faster and more dramatic. There will be a dramatic increase in the number of multimillionares and there will also bethose who are left behind.” Robert Kiyosaki (rich dad poor dad)
To know is to have an idea, to understand is to discern the intricacies of the idea and to be wise is to be able to make good use of that idea, I want to be wise!



INFORMATION, THE MAKING OF A MAN.
The topic of this chapter was culled from a church programme i attended a few years back and i couldn’t agree less.
In the beginning, when Adam and Eve ate the forbidden friut, thier eyes opened and they suddenly felt shame and nakedness. Before eating the friut however, they were ignorant of their state but after the deed, they they became knowledgable of their state. I would at this point say that information can do one of two things; make or marr you.
If Adam and eve had chosen to eat of the tree of the friut of life,which i would gladly have chosen if given the choice(who cares about know what is good or evil when you can know the secret of living forever),then could have had that one inforamtion that would have “made” them and indeed the whole human race.
Enough about Adam and eve, we know information can do either of two things; make or marr, so how do we get information that makes and avoid those that marr?
See you next time...
