heartless advice for teenage power-wannabees? Funny enough, it's stuff I learned from seasoned old people who motivate and inspire young people.

"I know you are but what am I...' is how your comment came accross. Chill, I never called you a loser.

Next time, read the entire blog before you make comments like the one you made. "Maybe there are people who are better than you and are giving and help people out?"

I do indeed talk about people who help others...

"Now if you said relying on people with 0 motivation is bad I'd agree"... that is what I'm saying... I never said abandon anyone. if someone just doesn't care anymore, why would you waste your time. They need to figure it out themselves at that point.

Why would it even matter? Must I be "somebody" for me to be credible enough to make such a statement? Andrea, let me ask you this... why in the world would you even question what I wrote above? Do you disagree with me? I'm only stating the obvious. Take a look at the most successful people in the world and ask them for yourself if what I wrote is wrong.

Do you think people who aren't willing to look for a job because they don't feel like it are losers?
People who have no money and don't care to make some?
People who are just too lazy?
People who simply party all the time and don't do much else?
People who do a lot of drugs?
People not wiling to step out of their comfort zone?

Now tell me this, if you know someone who fits anyone of these criteria's, do you think it would be helpful for you success to be around them?

Thanks

For those of you who don't know... Juxtaposition is the act of positioning close together (or side by side) ... I won't lie, I had to look that one up ;)

Oh yah, I never saw the entire movie, but I did see that famous seen of his. He's good no doubt, but I think his cool slick talking from this movie was better.

hmmm, I like where you are going with that and I couldn't agree with you more. It's true and I believe it becomes more of an obvious then when you think about something, you see it or come across it because its on your mind. Else, like everything, you would of just ignored it.

Oh I agree with you, it's just hard when you make a lot of money doing what they do... I mean if you got paid millions of dollars to lie, would you do it?

Wow... that's great! I'm excited about that!

Hey Dave, I respect your response, but quoting the bible for what it "really means', doesn't really do it. Whatever it says maybe true, it maybe not, but the bottom line is that the way I wrote it is the way MOST people perceive it. Like I said, it maybe right or wrong, but that's just what gets people to go forward.

Yeah, this is true. Lottery is probably not the best example because its a game of such extreme luck. Other things in life are dependent on you and the amount of work you put in.

The eye accessing cues, yeah, it's very powerful. It's really easy fore people to use this on others, but just remember, some people are kind of backwards. Ask a simple question like, "what did you do for your birthday last year" or "what did you do last weekend" That will allow you to calibrate the way their system works.

Simpsons did it... Homer went back in time with a toaster he fixed. He altered the past and then ever time the bread popped out, he came to an altered "present" time.

Exactly. I knew a lot of people like that, especially during my high school days :) Your best bet is to get rid of em!

That's good! Just don't rely on things to happen to you without you actually taking action on something.

Great Julian, I'm glad to hear that! The goal with my articles is to provide you with some info you can use and take away from and implement right away. The next time you read an article, bookmark it. Apply what you learn, then write a comment about your experience. Sharing you experiences will not only help you remember it, but it will allow you to get feedback from me or other readers on what you can do to improve. That's what it's all about :)

Re: Are You an Information Junkie?

Most people forget about things immediately after they read something...that's why it's a good idea to try and explain to someone right away.
