Day in a day out we ask ourselves, what are the 10 ways to be successful, what are the 5 ways to be beautiful, what are the 7 ways to be a millionaire? Everything is about me, myself and I. Why don't you sometimes try this, what are the 4 steps to help the person next to me live his dream, what are the 7 steps to impact, inspire, and put a smile on the person's face? Statistics shows that 90% of successful people are still not happy; this is because fulfillment comes from helping the one next to you. This is why some rich people tend to give back to society. Generosity is a way of helping others without expecting anything in return. Generosity is not an equation, like I helped you out so he also should hold me down. Not all of us have money or other resources to help others, but our time, love, and assistance to others can mean a lot and can be worth more than money. It doesn't take only money or sophisticated resources to impact, inspire, and put a smile on people's face.
Kids are cutting lines, kids are growing up to be gangsters, kids are up paddling drugs on street. These are all kids we see in our neighborhood and pass by every time on the street. Everybody is busy chasing their dreams and living their life on social media and not noticing what is going on in the world so kids grow up lacking motivation, dreams, inspirations, and identity because they don't get a lot of information about this world from the elders. They are then guided by the environment and go to any direction the wind blows them. I know this world is a land of freedom but we still need motivations and inspirations to live freely and manifest ourselves into who we really want to be. Remember your life is a message to the world so make sure its inspiring. I'm sometimes overwhelmed, anxious, and afraid if my next generation will love and help one another. IF I HAD ONE WISH I WOULD MAKE THE WORLD LOVE AGAIN.
Bill Gates has a foundation which looks out for charity kids with an investment of over $40 billion. If one person can make a huge difference in a lot of people's life, imagine how the world will be if we all loved, helped, and put smile on people's faces. When you are gone, people are not going to talk about your red Bugatti, Gucci bag, or Versace clothes, people are rather going to talk about who you were, how you loved, lived, and put a smile on people's faces. People see you and ask you if you have mansion, cars, or are married as if life is some kind of grocery list. Success is a state of mind, so don't be caught up in greed. Don't make life all about things.
My mother used to tell me, "Andy, when I gave birth to you, you were crying and the whole world was laughing, make sure you live your life in a way that when you are gone the whole world cries because you loved, impacted, inspired, and put smile on people's faces." I always crave to help people; any person who crosses my path I want to impact, inspire, and always put smiles on their faces. I want people to say because of me they didn't give up. That is worth more than $300 billion. I will die and leave all luxury behind but good name will forever remain. So I say it again my role model is Valentine. LET'S MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE.
