Home

I was talking about how a home should be welcoming sanctuary for children and they should be happy to come back home no matter what they had done.  They should know that they are always welcome to home anytime, no preconditions.

I think this concept can also be applied to all family members.  You should be happy to be home and it should not be a place where you dread going home to.  It should be a happy and safe place, physically as well as mentally.

Did you hear the concept of Nature vs Nurture.  The nature versus nurture debate concerns the relative importance of an individual's innate qualities  versus personal experiences  in determining or causing individual differences in physical and behavioral traits.

I am unsure why I am generally so positive and think positive thoughts about peoples actions, but for me that is just who I am.  I know people that are exactly the opposite of me, they take every action and think the worst possible outcome of each and every action.

I am unsure about other people but for me that is just who I am.

I require very little to be happy.  But then conversely I do not like negative people around me. 

There are trememdous differenace in how a negative person and a positive person acts.

Example 1:

A positive person will do something.  Fail or succeed, they will try.

A negative person will criticize and say I told you say when you fail, but would not have the courage themselves to do something

Example 2:

A positive person will always trust people.  I maybe wrong, but I will innately trust  you first.

A negative person will not trust you and think about the worst option that is available.

Example 3:

A positive person likes to be surrounded by friends.  I love having people stay with me at the house.

A negative person likes to be with family only.  They do not enjoy others staying at the house.

Anyway I can go on and on, but you get the picture.  The way I think and act will be with a positive attitude.  I will try lots of different things, and I may fail over and over, but I will learn from each failure and keep trying.

All I really need in life is a purpose and a home I am happy to come home to.

But like I have said, I am not here to change anybody to conform to my ways, we each are who we are and my guess us that 75% of our thought process is nature and there is simply nothing you can do to change who you are.  You can maybe change for a short while, but nature will take over.

Purpose

I was trying to think about what my ultimate purpose in life is.  Why am in here?

I think it is help people.

I do not really expect much for me and in fact I would say that I have been given too much already.

I gave my sister a $24,000 car for $13,000 and then spent another $2000 getting fixed so that it is perfect.  I did that because I knew I was helping her.

I gave others tens of thousands of dollars, not because I want something from them, but I felt I needed to help them and they were too proud to ask.

I have about 50-70 employees that work for me now and I live by a simple code.  My job is to help them.  I help them with education, financially and if they need it, emotionally.  I will continue to have high expenses in our company, because my job is to help my employees and not simply to make money.

I run my business so passionately not to make money, but because I want to help people to get jobs and I love to educate them and I think a by product of that is that I make money. 

I was being yelled at recently for giving so much money away.  I thought about this, did I really do something wrong?

Maybe, maybe not, but you know what, that is who I am.  I have always seen peoples hardships around me and tried to help as much as I can.   Maybe I could have another $50,000 or $100,000 in the bank this year, if I did not help, but so what, how will that change my life.  It will not.

This is the same reason that when I go out to eat and a bill is say $50, I will leave a $20 tip.  Even when the bill is $20 I tend to leave a $20 tip, not to show off, but I feel like that $20 means more to the waitress then to me and I hope that this will be a small way to help out.

Last month I had enough money to buy the Bentley that I wanted, but Vasant called me and wanted me to send $13,500 to some girl in USA that needed to pay her college fees.  He said that he could not pay me back for 2-3 months.  He did not even have to say that.  Vasant has helped me enough in life, that I would have just given him the money and he can pay me back when he wants or not pay it back, it does not matter.  I will not ask nor will I think about it again.

I think I have to be who I am and live my life by my code.  I am not sure why I have a need to help people, but I feel a sincere need to help people that I know need help.

Money does not matter much to me and if I have $100 in my bank or I have $100,000 in my bank I will be happy.

A very rich person one day told me that the greatest pleasure they had was watching their bank account grow.  I sincerely hope I never ever become like that.

Everyone has their own way of thinking about things.  But I hope this will give you a small idea of how I think and how I live.  Even if I want to, I do not think that I can change, I am who I am.

GANGNAM STYLE

Here is a super popular song on You Tube.  It is a type of music referred to as Kpop Music.  It has over 90,000,000 views in just 2 months.

Also Gangnam is the area in South Korea that is like Beverly Hills, a super rich area.  Oppa in slang means boyfriend but the literal translation is Big Brother.

The singers name is PSY (pronounced: sigh).

I loved the song and I though that you guys might like it also.




Same song, but Live Performance, the crowd has such an amazing energy:
