I Think I Can’t, I Think I Can’t: The New American Mantra?
LISTEN FOR FREE WITHOUT COMMERCIALS!
I had a recent caller that got my blood boiling.
I asked him how the rich acquired their wealth. He said–with a straight face mind you–that they got their riches by doing things that are NOW illegal, but were legal at the time of the acquisition of their loot.
Can you believe this?
Remember the Little Engine who COULD??
We have become a nation of “I can’t” and “I won’t” and “It’s their fault no mine” minded people.
I will keep this blog short and sweet, lest I have a stroke thinking about it too much.
Very few–if ANY–successful people got to where they are believing that their dream shouldn’t, wouldn’t, or couldn’t come to fruition.
A great deal of what determines if someone will be successful or not boils down to BELIEF and a TRUE, SPECIFIC vision of what they want to do or be or achieve.
Stop the bellyaching. Stop the whining. Stop the excuse making.
It’s probably your own damned fault that you are unhappy or unsuccessful.
Don’t just do something, SIT there!!

As a teacher, I do all that I can to fight this mentality. It is hard to rectify someone who has been indoctrinated with that message at home though.
Why is it that we as a nation seem to cater to the ultra rich or the paste eaters?
For once I'd like to hear – "we're going to help the guys who are in the $150K a year range take that idea burining a hold in their brain (but since they work 60 to 80 hours a week don't have much time or energy to really hammer it out )and run with it"
