The final pillar beauty

Beauty is an interesting pillar because it changes with time and culture.  If you have the right look for your time you can use it to get anywhere.  Anyone who has watched America's next top model often you will see a lot of the girls only have there looks.  Shallow Hal showed the hard part of not having this pillar though at the end it showed how sadly looks can make someone turn ugly inside.  Then there are the beautiful people who dont relize they are beautiful so they throw there beauty away.  This is the hardest pillar to navigate to.  Thank you for reading the pillars if you have one I missed let me know

intelligence the fifth pillar

This pillar has produced many of the greatest men in history.  This is the other pillar that alone is not enough.  Intelligence I see in two parts.  The first part is your ability to learn, this is luck of genetics.  The second part is desire to learn, this is something you must work on your entire life. If you are intelligent or very intelligent but not successful see what other pillar you can work on to get there.  I have met many intelligent people who want to use there intelligence to save the world and loose themselves in the process.  If every person uses there talents to make there life better they would find they had more to help solve the worlds problems.

The fourth pillar where you come from

This is a pillar that on its own will not be enough.  This entails a lot because it is not only how well off your family is it is also the person they teach you to be.  As expressed in movies like Billy Madison and Arthur being from high society can back fire. Though if taught right it produces people like Bill Gates and Warren Buffet.  Though i put this pillar more because it is often said the rich get richer and the other saying a fool and his money are soon parted.  In this day and age where you come from matters more then ever.  So if you are born to means don't squander it and if not use strong work ethic to make up for it.  

The third pillar

The third pillar is person ability.  This is another pillar like hard work which you develop.  This pillar is the ability to get along with and work with others.  I see this as a lazy mans secret to success.  This is talked about in the book How to make friends and influence people by Carnegie.  It is a skill if perfected can get others to do everything for and be thankful for the opportunity.  Sadly this is the pillar used by politicians to make people thankful they are messing up there life.  If you have this pillar you need the government the least.   Please share your thoughts.

pillar 2

The second pillar is health which in tales a lot and is something you are born with and very hard to improve and easy to mess up by choices or bad luck.  In this I include athleticism and your voice as well as not becoming ill or having a debilitating condition.  Like the last pillar this alone can give you a good life. If you never call in sick and never go to the doctor you will save and make more.  I included athleticism and voice though these are great talents to have they must be coupled with hard work to take you anywhere. 

The six pillars

I have found 6 things that make people successful.  My next six posts will go over each of these.  The first and most important is work ethic.  If you have this you will be successful. What makes this one so important is it is very uncommon.  I myself do have it though i was lucky enough to have a father who epitomized it.  He was born with balled feet unable to walk.  He had many surgeries to gain the ability to walk but it still hurts each step he takes.  This did not stop him from working hard his entire life.  He lived in rural Idaho to a large family that didn't have a lot.  So when he was 14 he started helping on his uncles farm to help his family.  He worked hard from that point on to pay his way through college.  He moved to California to use his work ethic and it helped him to give our family a good life.  I hope someday to gain my fathers work ethic.  check in next week for the next pillar.  thanks for reading!!

Everyone should be a libertarian

I am editing this cause it is my most viewed post.  Why should everyone be a libertarian because the other two parties each have problems.  The republicans are for super rich who want to force there morals on others.  I was a republican till I realized I wasn't rich enough.  The democrats are for people who are worthless.  That isn't to say all democrats are worthless but they are not informed.  I have met many democrats who are great and each time I do I wonder why.
