In Reply to: INDIA WILL CONTINUE LEADING US-BEEN OVERSEAS AND SEEN POVERTY!!!!! - ConeyIslandGirl

of a really messed up trend. Our middle class jobs are being sent overseas (India is only one country) to save big business lots of money and Bush is proud of "millions of jobs created"
mainly in service industries. i.e. minimum wage --where does that leave us in the future??? with an everwidening gap between the rich and the middle class, the way things are going now there will only be vulgarly rich and poverty stricken in America !!

Many great entrepreneurs had humble beginnings (sm)
You have met many challenges head-on and been very successful. Right now you face a challenge - the challenge is almost like a game with your own mind. It is an obstacle that will be difficult to overcome, but once you do, you will benefit from it forever. Many great entrepreneurs began as a janitor, waiter/waitress, many humble positions. You already realize your intellect and the capacity you have to soar above your peers. Your challenge is to learn to first work with people, side-by-side, to be able to know that you have greater abilities, but humble yourself to do less, while in your time off from work, working on your businesses, until you no longer need the "job". It is truly a mental game you are playing with yourself unknowingly and you are allowing your own intellectual mind to defeat "you" with too much pride and self-imposed rules. You have to re-think all of this and challenge yourself to be able to be humble, knowing that you have great capabilities. On the other hand, many people who are very intelligent have found that they can be much more happy in simple tasks that are "beneath" their mental abilities, but find great value in seeing physical results. Physical labor gives immediate gratification. Your body is worthy too, not just your mind. Use both. Do not lock yourself into a mental prison. Step out into the sun and set yourself free
