“I can do it better myself”

I have thought that way my entire life, which is why I have been self-employed and self-motivated to better myself each day of my life. I look for ways to better myself and help others all the time.

That attitude has made me strong (physically, emotionally, and spiritually), independent, helpful, friendly, outgoing, fearless, and initiative.

The ridicule I have had (and still now) to endure from family, friends, and strangers has been unbelievable and harsh, to say the lease. Because I refuse to stand in line, do what others believe is right, and go along for the sake of getting along. I think for and in myself, have morals I believe in and live by, stand by what I believe to be right and righteous, have made my life eventful and challenging.

I can and will fight, I carry a gun and have used it, I own precious metals, I have learned skills others thought I was incapable of doing and putting them to work, I try to get along for the sake of letting others know it is OK to better yourself, and I treat others as I would like to be treated. This has caused confusion among those who believe our mind, body, and spirit has limits, and they believe they can limit mine. They think and try to refuse me form being all I can be by pushing their distorted views of life on me.

Most have been lead to believe socially educated, certificates, and licenses are signs of notability, knowledge, and abilities. On the contrary, these are all signs of persons’ inability to take control of their own life and lack of self-motivation, imagination and creativeness, and their willingness to accept personal limitations.

Most of whom are socially educated, certified, look for the lead of others, and seek personal security from what others may offer, which they themselves have been lead to believe they are incapable of achieving without the approval of an outside source, and need to answer to those they feel have authority over them. What makes it worse is they believe others should feel the same way.

Someone gave them authority to do something so that means someone has to give out authority. The notion of taking authority over ourselves is not even a perception which is recognizable or achievable to these individuals. It is that view of life that limits their accomplishments and makes the peer pressure a force to concede to.

Do yourself a favor; believe in yourself, have faith in your beliefs, instead of ridiculing others learn from them, learn skills, stay out of debt, your peers should be like-minded, spend more time being enlightened and less time being delighted, stay away from anything that makes you feel weak and embrace that which gives you strength and makes others feel valuable to yourself and others.
