WEDNESDAY WISDOMS APRIL 2, 2014..INSPIRED BY SOMEONE I KNOW..

Wednesday Wisdom's, April 2, 2014. Inspired by someone I know.
  Well its another great day to be alive, If anything , be thankful, really, i have been around the world and I have seen the poor , the injured the sickly, and it makes you appreciate what you have. I think alot of us forget how blessed and how fortunate we are. Because there are millions of people that are just looking for something to eat. But back to my blog. My take today is humility, its a word I have heard and been tossed around to me many times. But i didn't realize how humbled someone can get when you meet and talk with someone that has the skills or the knowledge to shut you down. I mean, I love to talk, but this person displayed to me , power , grace , wisdom and humility. despite all of their success and knowledge and titles, they remain grounded. Why? because human nature tells you that , if you show humbleness and no ego motivated motives, people will gravitate to you they will talk to you and if your in business do business with you. Its something I saw while stationed in Japan,, Customer service is job one, and get this you don't need to tip them.. in fact its frowned upon and not customary. In japan, making the customer feel like a million dollars is why I enjoyed every minute I was there. While in the states, you have to tip or its even demanded and you still don't get great service. I mean , if you love your job,, really, you will do your best and go that extra mile. The key. is that you love your job, and when you love it,, it doesn't feel like work.. its like play time. Its like when I'm working out. its fun, because I enjoy it. and I always strived to do that with any job I had in the military or civilian life. I always want to enjoy what I do. Its the way I like to roll. If anyone knows me , they realize early , I like to talk , I like to laugh and I like to see everyone smiling and happy. even when I don't feel it.. even when I'm sick or tired. Its a calling at times,, I know when I go to parties OR what I 'm expected to perform and be happy and even though I don't feel it..Guess what? Yup, the showman , gives you a show.. But get this ..I do it because I'm a attention - lover and I love to perform. Its not that I feel I'm obligated , though at times I think that. but bottom line.. I like to meet and greet people and share my talents , skills and and knowledge. Be it logistics, security, martial arts or financial planning. If you want to hear or see , I'm willing to show , teach and advise, its my nature, I'm a people person and I love when I can show people a different light or path and I enjoy learning from others. Like my friend. They were very inspirational in the way they handle themselves and have pride and grace in the way they do things. Its a hard and tough quality to find these days and that's why they are successful. They don't need to show off or be an attention seeker, they know when to present themselves and when to prove themselves. So , in essence last weekend , I was humbled , but I also learned that , humility and learning to be down to earth and not so over the top, will garner you alot more accolades. I mean. I will never be a quiet guy. But at least I realize I don't need to a human cartoon. Its called balance of character and I know from this day on, or from that day on.. I will take another look at how I present myself, so I can be more approachable and humbled by others. I mean, I know so many educated and successful people and they all have given me insights about life.. Its one thing to to hear it, but its another thing to really listen and hear what the people are saying. Lessons learned , slow down and be sensitive to peoples thoughts and don't get so caught up with your own things, because everyone is important in life and doing things that are relevant , for everyone in life, we need to understand that and respect one another choices. Good or bad, we are all in this game of life together and sooner or later we will need one another. My lesson for today is this.. Be humble and respectful to people because , the one that seems like they have nothing could be the person who has everything , money , success, wisdom, and a great heart. Don't judge a book by its cover, instead , be more real and get to know and like people for what they are ab not what they wear or drive.. true beauty comes from inner beauty and personality and if genuine , to me anyways , its more beautiful than a sexy body or beautiful hair.. True beauty is how you treat others and how you make them feel. It was humbling experience , but I learned ad like anyone in life.. we are all learning new things an ways of thinking. A wise person understands that and spreads that philosophy with people they meet or greet !! Until my next blog.. Have a great day , week and life!!
