Seven Remedies for a Broke-Ass Pocket

By


Without getting into any deep stuff, let me cut straight to the
chase:

The Simple Truth
  1. Get a job.
  2. Save 10 percent of your income, no fail, and invest the returns/dividends
  3. Stop living above your means—Buy only what you need and what you can afford
  4. Make a budget, and stick to it no matter what, except for extenuating circumstances
  5. Pay using cash—whenever possible—it helps to give you a tangible view of the damages of where your money is going before it is all gone.
  6. Stay away from money grabbers such as malls, outlets, and e-commerce
  7. Don't ever leave yourself BROKE!!!

I contemplated that life unfolds in three distinct but interconnected phases: birth and development, the pursuit, and sickness and dying.   Birth and Development: The Foundation of Self Life begins with hope and infinite potential. Each birth represe...

Journey of Self: Who Are You?

By
How do you begin to answer this question? Do you begin with your name, relations, occupation, achievements, life status or family lineage? How about sexual, spiritual or solar orientation? No? Then you must be your race, creed, nationality, or background? Right?... So, if none of those define you, tell me... do you really, truly and honestly know who you are? How might you begin to find out? As individuals we have so many intricacies and facets to our lives that if we have not consciously taken the time to find out who we are, we could be living a lie or someone else idea of who we are. I know, I know...I can hear the protest loud and clear: "I know who I am." But really, do you? I have news for you. What you do and where you came from are NOT you!  That's right, it is an extension of who you are, but it certainly isn't you in its entirety. You were who you are, long before you learned how to walk, talk, read, or write. Long before your passed or cu...
