Changing Your
Course, Your Life !
A job change — even a career change — is one thing. But changing course by redirecting your energies so that you're living the life you truly want is quite
another. And, it's not for everyone.
"The saddest people out there," says Dilbert cartoon creator Scott Adams, "are the ones who
are living for their two-week vacation every year. If you're living for those two weeks, then you have to start changing
something." What about you? Are you ready for so called right livelihood? Answer these 10 simple
questions and find out!
A Thought
...It may be a simplification but it does put the world into some perspective for us...
If we could shrink the earth's
population to a village of precisely 100 people, with all the existing human ratios remaining the same, it would look something like the following and
there would be:
100 people
57 Asians, 21 Europeans, 14 Western Hemisphere, both North and South America,
8 Africans
52 would be female
48 would be male
89 would be heterosexual
6 would possess 56% of the entire world's wealth and all 6 would be from the United States.
80
would live in substandard housing
70 would be unable to read
50 would suffer from malnutrition
1 would be near death
1 (yes, only
1) would have a college education
1 would own a computer |
