What Ronaldo And Pastors Have In Common

Last Saturday, I was watching the Champions League final. After watching awhile, that got me thinking...
It's amazing how the sports industry is its own industry.

A universe with its stars, fans, awards, global events, and billions of dollars in revenue. According to Forbes, the sports industry is expected to reach $73.5 billion by 2019, just in North America.


In Europe, professional soccer stars are often criticized in the media for their 7 and 8 figure salaries. Despite this, their salaries are higher than ever.

Two things you won't find in professional sports are political and social considerations.
This universe is hermetic to anything going on in society and that pretty much explains why
it's such a successful industry.


This is very similar to how I encourage you to live life.
Create your own universe or planet with your own rules. For that, you must 'isolate' yourself
from the rest of society, particularly social issues.


The sports industry has only two focuses: the game and money.
This is why billions of people get sucked into sports.
It provides an escape from the real world while the industry gets extremely rich.


I could go on, with religion, for example.
As a matter of fact, in the US and some parts of Africa, religious organizations don't even pay taxes. They've managed to remove themselves from the normal realm of society. You and I pay taxes. But they don't.

They created their own universe, with believers who gladly tip each Sunday, allowing pastors to become ridiculously rich and fly in private jets all this, tax-free.
Nothing to feel resentful about, really. But a lot to learn from.
There is the reality that 90% of people share, and YOUR reality that you can deliberately create with your rules.

Have an amazing day!

4 Amazing Ways To Create Deep Devotion In Your Relationship Partner

When you want to get your significant other totally devoted to you, you need to take a few things into consideration. I made a list of the things you need to pay attention to, particularly in marriage relationships. 1. Can he or she be devoted to someone? Realistically, there are relationship partners who will cheat, lie, and betray you with impunity… So, it's important to be selective with the man/woman you want to spend your life with. This is so important that if you make a mistake, you'll most likely live with it for the rest of your life. 2 Are you constantly developing yourself? If you have any of those common issues and problems that most people seem to have - like jealousy, control issues, pettiness, sloppiness, the tendency to be a chuff, etc., it would benefit you greatly to work on fixing those traits and becoming a more secure, emotionally stable and likeable individual. 3. Are you creating an atmosphere for deep ROMANCE? Maybe you overestima...

Focus On The First Step

If you ask me if success in life is easy to come by, I'll simply tell you the obvious: NO! But if you focus on the first step of whatever you want to achieve, the most difficult part would have been taken care of. Here is an interesting story to buttress my point. One day, I was at a camp meeting and I met this aspiring writer. I asked him how his book was coming along. "I didn't really getting started… I'm not sure my stuff will be good enough…" He was so insecure about his writing that he didn't even START writing anything. It's hard to become good at something you don't practice. I just explained to him that what really matters is taking the first step. The first step is really all that matters. If you can be the man or woman who always takes the first step, you become a force of nature. That's a really counter-intuitive secret to success. Every success I've had in my life was created because I took this first step. ...
