How to get rich

It is a moderately hot afternoon here at our flat.

I cannot help but think about how to become rich and plan ahead of time. I am in no position to advise you about how to keep a good career or probably how to make money out of the Internet or how to start a good business. I for one am unemployed right now, have no income and am bound through an endless routine of clicking the dreaded button called "Click here to apply."

This part of the blog is definitely not about how to get rich but it simply calls out to all the people out there that are aspiring to become rich or successful in life. Hey, you are not alone. While a great deal of people you see on the newspapers and magazines are enjoying the good life, we are stuck in what we call our society's less fortunate ones; or at least for the time being, a parochial burden. I always believed that being rich is how you live your life. No man is rich enough as his lifestyle. The more you earn money, the more you are actually going to spend it.

Getting rich means giving a lot to other people in need. If you are not able to help others with your meager salary, chances are, you are not going to be giving when you are a multi-millionaire. So make it a good habit to share your gifts early on and make sure that you do not tell everybody about how giving you are. Surprise people in need and expect nothing in return. Live by the principle that getting rich and changing the world starts with oneself and that doing one act of random kindness every so often can take you there.

Fast prose

I only have 10 minutes to write this. This should be quick enough. Nothing much to say in the beginning except that there were words. They may be meaningless or not but altogether they would eventually be something you would have never thought of in the first place.

Seven minutes and the clock is ticking. I just had a hot shower and a nice intake of stale late afternoon breeze from just outside my window.

What does it take for a man to see everything? One can never see enough if you are part of the picture. How about looking everything from a different perspective. How about taking away oneself from the actual experience and seeing through this imaginary looking glass, focused and unbiased.

Two minutes more and that should be all it takes for me to get the message across. At the end of the day we are all entitled to our own musings.
