7 Habits of Losers - Are Your Buddies Keeping You Back?

1. Sees a problem in every opportunity
A loser is a poor judge of the choices he makes. He sees negativity in Positivity. He sees scares in abundance. He sees a problem in every opportunity. He’s a troll looking for failure as an outcome to justify his lack of action. He thinks others are lucky for their achievements to abscond with his inept to achieve anything of significance.

2. Passes the buck
A loser is low on the fuel of self-esteem. He lacks confidence to achieve anything in life. He sees himself as a victim of the cruelty life inflicts on him. He feels that others are to blame for his failures as life is not fair to him.

3. Uses antagonistic phrases
A loser lives the life of antagonism. He uses statements like, “It’s not my job,” or “I’m not responsible for that” to discern their negativity.

4. Cuts losses quickly
A loser feels pride in making swift moves from a career to another career or from one business to another. He is deft at justifying another dream until a new whim arrives with a new dream. He wants to do lots of things but finds ways to rationalize doing nothing. His confidence in a career or business lasts until he finds another career or a business.

5. Hooked up on cable and lottery drug
A loser squanders time by watching TV for more hours than engaging in meaningful action. He strives for instant gratification by following celebrities and playing lottery with the hope of striking rich overnight.

6. Seeks approval from others
A loser tends to please others in everything he does. He refuses to think and act on his own behalf. He yields to others the ability to create his opinion of himself.

7. He doesn’t know what he wants from life
A loser seeks approval from others rather than approval from his inner-self. He sees life from the lenses of instant gratification. His opinion about life swings faster than that of a politician. He truly never knows himself well to find a purpose.

A loser is a dream-buster armed with a weapon of negativity to squash your purpose. Beware, if you find one, report to us immediately and either correct their ways, correct the level of credence you place on their words, or distance yourself.

Your reward is waiting for you with a life of abundance.

Some girl posted this entry in one of the American’s largest finance focused forum.

I’m going to be honest of what I’m going to say here. I’m 25 this year. I’m very pretty, have style and good taste. I wish to marry a guy with $500k annual salary or above. You might say that I’m greedy, but an annual salary of $1M is considered only as middle class in New York. My requirement is not high. Is there anyone in this forum who has an income of $500k annual salary? Are you all married? I wanted to ask: what should I do to marry rich persons like you? Among those I’ve dated, the richest is $250k annual income, and it seems that this is my upper limit. If someone is going to move into high cost residential area on the west of New York City Garden (?), $250k annual income is not enough.

I’m here humbly to ask a few questions:
1) Where do most rich bachelors hang out? (Please list down the names and addresses of bars, restaurant, gym)
2) Which age group should I target?
3) Why most wives of the riches is only average-looking? I’ve met a few girls who doesn’t have looks and are not interesting, but they are able to marry rich guys
4) How do you decide who can be your wife, and who can only be your girlfriend? (my target now is to get married)

Here’s a reply from a Wall Street Financial guy:

Dear Ms. Pretty,

I have read your post with great interest. Guess there are lots of girls out there who have similar questions like yours. Please allow me to analyze your situation as a professional investor. My annual income is more than $500k, which meets your requirement, so I hope everyone believes that I’m not wasting time here.

From the standpoint of a business person, it is a bad decision to marry you. The answer is very simple, so let me explain. Put the details aside, what you’re trying to do is an exchange of “beauty” and “money”: Person A provides beauty, and Person B pays for it, fair and square. However, there’s a deadly problem here, your beauty will fade, but my money will not be gone without any good reason. The fact is, my income might increase from year to year, but you can’t be prettier year after year. Hence from the viewpoint of economics, I am an appreciation asset, and you are a depreciation asset. It’s not just normal depreciation, but exponential depreciation. If that is your only asset, your value will be much worried 10 years later

By the terms we use in Wall Street, every trading has a position, dating with you is also a “trading position”. If the trade value dropped we will sell it and it is not a good idea to keep it for long term - same goes with the marriage that you wanted. It might be cruel to say this, but in order to make a wiser decision any assets with great depreciation value will be sold or “leased”. Anyone with over $500k annual income is not a fool; we would only date you, but will not marry you. I would advice that you forget looking for any clues to marry a rich guy. And by the way, you could make yourself to become a rich person with $500k annual income. This has better chance than finding a rich fool.

Hope this reply helps. If you are interested in “leasing” services, do contact me

Now Listening: Nicole Scherzinger - Baby Love 

I guess, to every boy who had dreamt and imagined that one day we could travel between time and space, between stars and planets and galaxies would have read one of Isaac Asimov’s book. if you haven’t, i’m sure you’ve watched the movie i, Robot starring Will Smith, the movie was actually inspired by his novel of the same title

he is by far the best, or probably the only perfect sci-fi novelist i’ve ever come across. his imagination, his choices of names for his characters, his sense of humor in between the lines, his logical layout, and of course, his way of ending his stories with a surprising twist that i had never felt disappointed. and most importantly, he can always present his stories in a way in which you don’t need to score “A” in advanced physics or Quantum Physics, and yet you’ll still be able to understand what he wrote.

I came across a piece of his short stories just before i was about to goto bed. here’s an excerpt of his own words regarding this short story he wrote:

This is by far my favorite story of all those I have written.

After all, I undertook to tell several trillion years of human history in the space of a short story and I leave it to you as to how well I succeeded. I also undertook another task, but I won’t tell you what that was lest l spoil the story for you.

It is a curious fact that innumerable readers have asked me if I wrote this story. They seem never to remember the title of the story or (for sure) the author, except for the vague thought it might be me. But, of course, they never forget the story itself especially the ending. The idea seems to drown out everything — and I’m satisfied that it should.

i must say, this short story, revolves around only ONE question, which was set out to present an ending that has such an impactful punch it can EASILY SUPERSED all others in the same genre i’ve ever read and become the BEST. and the ending? i have to say, it is simply that kind of ending which will make you clap for a full 1 minute and say, “damn, he’s fan-fucking-tasticly good!”

without further delay, i present to you: Isaac Asimov - The Last Question

Now Listening: Death Cab For Cutie - Brothers On A Hotel Bed

A good yet emotional article i read today off hundreds of feeds i read everyday….

find it HERE

share it with you peeps out there, don’t be a self-centric ego chauvinistic bastard

it hurts, and oh, remember what goes around comes around

Good Night

An article which i’ve always remind myself of how to cherish and to love someone maturely, i would love to share it with everyone out there, wish you a happily ever after ending..

有位心理學家曾寫道，一個成熟稱得上真愛的戀情必須經過四個階段，那就是：

1. 共存 Codependent
2. 反依賴 Counter-dependent
3. 獨立 Independent
4. 共生 Interdependent

階段之間轉換所需的時間不一定，因人而易。

第一個階段：共存

這是熱戀時期，情人不論何時何地總希望能膩在一起。

第二個階段：反依賴

等到情感穩定後，至少會有一方想要有多一點自己的時間作自己想做的事,這時另一方就會感到被冷落。

第三個階段：獨立

這是第二個階段的延續，要求更多獨立自主的時間。

第四個階段：共生。
這時新的相處之道已經成形，你(妳)的他(她)已經成為你(妳)最親的人。你們在一起相互扶持、一起開創屬於你們自己的人生。你們在一起不會互相牽，而會互相成長。

可惜，大部分的人都通不過第二或第三階段，而選擇分手一途。很多事只要好好溝通都會沒事的，不要耍個性，不要想太多要互相信任，這樣第二、三階段的時間就會縮短。和所愛的人相遇相戀是非常不容易的，不要輕言放棄。兩人相聚是因為有緣，相知是因為有心，真的得好好珍惜這福份莫說分手不是無由，希望看到上述的四個階段，真能給大家一些啟示與領悟並惜緣我們會逐漸變成我們所愛的人。

妳和他本來沒有相同之處，外表不相像，性格也是南轅北轍，一旦愛上了，年深日久，妳會驚訝妳的眼睛有點像他的眼睛，他的微笑也有點像妳的微笑。你們走路的步伐也有點相似，說話的語氣也愈來愈相像。他的脖子上有一顆痣，一天，妳發現自己脖子上也多了一顆痣，原來我們會變成我們所愛的人。妳本來喜歡腳踏實地的人，而他一向比較輕佻，但你們愛上了，他竟會不知不覺變成一個老實人，這個改變，連他自己也不曾察覺。他本來喜歡活潑的女孩子，卻愛上了拘謹的妳，這些日子，妳竟愈來愈活潑，妳差點認不出自己。

我們會逐漸變成對方理想中的人，這種改變，絕對不是刻意的。兩個人愈愛得長久，氣質也愈來愈相近，妳曾經以為他不是妳夢寐以求的那種類型，然而，有一天，妳驚訝地發現，他已經變成妳喜歡的那種類型，妳不必再到處尋覓，他就是妳要找的人。

深深愛著一個人的時候，妳原來真的會一點一點的失去自己，為甚麼妳還會覺得快樂呢？大概是因為妳在失去的當兒，也是賺了，妳把他的氣質和他的微笑都賺回來。
