Matters of The Heart - Say “NO” to poverty!

Say "NO" to poverty!

The time has come! let us be on our journey to become rich!
The Unemployment Rate in Singapore was 3.3% in September 2005. That works out to be approximately 143,550 unfortunate people that are currently not receiving income.

Research shows that many of these unemployed ones were given job opportunities but due to the nature of the job they refuse to accept it. I have an uncle who is now unemployed, it is his duty to feed his family of four. My mother wanted to help him so she got him an above average paying job of cleaning and clearing plates at a particular swimming complex. He resigned after 2 months of work because he did not like the job environment. Now poverty have seems to be a choice.

Have you heard of a saying “A fat woman is a lazy woman?” let me introduce you a new one, “A poor man is a lazy man”. Poverty is not for us! Inside of everyone is the potential to become someone great in life. Some people just want to cruise through life and therefore being unemployed is not an issue to them. Some people just want a simple life – 5 room flat, 1 wife, 2 kids, 1 car and 1 dog. And there are those who know clearly that there is only 1 short life and they need to live the very best they can in this 60 years.

Dream big, think big, be creative, have a goal on who you want to become and one day you will produce greatness. Eliminate laziness and you will obtain the way towards richness. What is your take? Should we just cruise through life or should we buy a ticket towards excellence and one day become an icon in the world?
