@040181991 it's better to have a goal than having nothing, treading aimlessly through life is down right stupid. in some way, your hardwork will pay of
@zenlaws02 no now I understand what he's talking about. It doesnt mean u get exactly what u want in detail. It means that if u focus on being the most u can be and maximizing ur potential, you will.
@djkaizerLA I've been doing that every since I started. doesnt change reality, some people are just better. its too late for me now. but oh well at least i can say i tried
I listened to this series once before, and months later I still find it so refreshing and inspiring. I plan to come back to it again every few months, probably for the rest of my life!
@waeil123, I don't believe that he was telling us to become our own god. I think he is trying to help people become focused and useful citizens. Imagine, if everyone had a goal and achieved that goal, how happy they would be. And that shared happiness would reflect in our society. Kids would have a goal, so there would be less hanging out and getting into trouble. You get the jist. Whatever his motives were, I take it for its worth to me.
@iamaphuney hey cool it will ya , this man is simply saying to you there is no god, you are" the god" because you can be whatever you want if you focus on it..... so basically he is trying to make you cover the existence of god., so you have two choices either you believe him and pretend to be a god or you can ignore him and keep on praying to god to help you achieve your goals.
@waeil123 I don't think the two are mutually exclusive. There's nothing wrong with working toward a goal and relying upon yourself and also praying to God to help you acheive your goals. The Bible never says to rely solely upon God, in fact, Christianity teaches that God helps those who help themselves. Earl Nightingale's words are equally valid whether you are Christian or non-Christian, he effectively takes God out of the equation and you are free to add him or not.
@rbilleaud well if you don't have a problem with taking god out of the equation than you can follow along with the other sheep. my brother you are basically falling willingly into the trap.
@waeil123 You miss the point. It may surprise you to learn that many people live quite fulfilling lives without believing in any form of supreme being. What happens to them in the afterlife is not germane to the discussion. It is typical of the evangelical Christian to assign values to others based on a perception that may prove incorrect. For example, I am a Christian but my personal beliefs are not relevant to those particular observations concerning Mr. Nightingale's opinions.
@rbilleaud you are 100% correct. we see things according to our belief and how we understand life, we may wait and see who had the right concept about life, but meanwhile it will not hurt to try to reveal the hypocrisy that some may try to inculcate their pernicious " values" as secrets of wisdom.

Great ideas. A little simplistic. He implies that attitude and determination are virtual guarantees. They are not. But they are powerful, powerful tools more people should wield.
This is the best thing to watch if all you think too get what ever you want is by using is "The Secret" Motivation, Attitude, the secret and this together is magic.
Earl Nightingale's prime of his life was during the time when American society achieved what is for man, the realistic utopia. Neither before nor after the 1950's have things been nearer to ideal. The principles he speaks about, if applied, would have indeed produced results with nearly every individual. James Bernard Shaw was correct in his, "people blaming circumstances", statement... generally speaking. But if that view is to be considered applicable at all times, then society can simply do
away with its judicial system. There is a reason why many acts are deemed to be criminal. Its because they are destructive and by far, mostly to the victims of the crimes. There's a reason why words such as "recompense", "restitution", "reparation" & "compensation" exist. Its because sometimes things can be determined or already possessed & injustices can place them beyond the determiners reach.
Consider Nightingale's words of "thinking ones determinations" & how a man had indeed determined
many good things and was en route to accomplish them. But one day in Dallas in 1963, an assassination made them all impossible. Sometimes the victim remains alive but crime & injustice can nevertheless cause even likely things to become impossibilities just the same.
Then, in this day, Nightingale's correct non conformity virtue, is made the recipient of scornful, punishing reproach by 1984's "political correctness" monster of conformity. In short, Nightingale didn't live in this Satanic day

Good day to all of my fellow Christians, firstly my apology for being out of topic. I came here to remind you people that the judgment day has been starting already. I urge you my fellow Christians to depart from all form of unchristian conduct lest you be found not worthy to inter the kingdom of God in the Day of Execution. Please do not misinterpret my activity as spam; I did not do it for that purpose.
