United States of Ideas, Stop the Bickering By Mel


American ideals consist that everyone is entitle to receive equal opportunity to be successful in this country.  An American ideal boils down to ideology.  For example if you are a Democrat you may favor Labor Unions, affirmative action and Plan Parenthood compare to Republican ideology in which you may favor less government and a strong military.  No matter what your ideology is some people unfortunately are held back for a number of reasons to be successful.  It can be your sex gender, color of your skin or your religious beliefs just to name a few.  Our philosophy should be a combination between the two ideologies because there are so many different backgrounds, cultural and ethnicities which makes our country so great.  One example would be to maintain a strong military presence in the world while we continue to invest more into our educational programs without discrimination.  A better education equals a great career, while a strong military will keep us safe from international threats.  However in order to be strong internationally we have to be strong domestically. 

The problem today is our financial sector in this country still remains predatory in nature.  Greed has become the “new” ideology.  We can take a look at the “Occupy Wall Street” a group of protesters who believe it is not right for the top 1 percent to control 99 percent of the wealth in this country.  This is the land of opportunity, freedom and justice for all, not the land to take advantage of people; clear out their 401K account then lay off hardworking employees to ship their job overseas to gain more profit on cheap labor.  Our next president should be able to combine both ideologies to make our country whole again.

Self-Reflect and Accept Change By Mel

I NEVER understand why people are so desperate to get into a relationship without focusing on themselves.   Cuffing season has become the new norm in today's dating age and no wonder why there are so many incomplete relationships.   Shortcomings are bound to happen when you put in shortcoming efforts which equals shortcoming results...it's not rocket science.  When people market themselves in a particular way by showing their romantic side or being independent it is completely opposite when they are in a relationship.  For example, they unleash their bag of unlucky charms which cursed them from their last relationship hoping that their significant other will accept them.  Nine out of 10 that rarely happens and I will explain why.  Deceitful people brush their advertising promos underneath the rug and show who they truly are with nasty characteristic traits like clinginess, non-trustworthy ways and possessiveness.  By not practicing what you ...

BE who you ARE, not who the World wants you to BE By Mel

  Life is full surprises.   When you’re out there in the field you get a sense that all eyes are on you.   That oil to your engine is confidence .   Every ounce in your body engages you to stay well groomed, sell your image, build your vocabulary and practice on your art or goals in life.   That’s a very attractive trait to have and I will tell you why.   The love you put inside yourself shines externally which creates this invisible aura.   It creates offensive projections defined as the way you carry yourself or how you interact with people combine with defensive measures such as keeping your guard up and not allowing people to take advantage of you.   We all have our moments when we navigate in unfamiliar territory.   For example, giving your time and effort to someone who shortchanged you or getting laid off from a promising career just because you challenged the status quo.   Sometimes you feel betrayed but let me share som...

No Love in the Club The 90/10 Rule By Vaughn James

If you’re in your mid 30’s or just turned 40, you shouldn’t be in the club every weekend. Guys, you seriously don’t want to be the sleazy old man in the club. And ladies, you shouldn’t be out getting your drink on, leaving your fourteen year old teenager to watch your younger kids. The fact is, even when we were all young, the chances that men and women could find a meaning full relationship in a club was next to zero, but closer to 5%. “Wait a minute”, you may ask, “how can that be quantified?” I’ll explain. Simply, when we go out to the clubs, 90% of the men are trying to get with 10% of the women and 90% of the women are trying to get with 10% of the men. So, the likelihood that there will be any kind of real hookup is 5%, half of 10%. Besides, the club is a terrible place to meet someone. They are overly hyped by the radio station and promoters, who make it seem like your life will end if you don’t go to their club Friday and Saturday nights. Additionally, the mixed alco...
