The Success Mandate

"The great use of life is to spend it for something that will outlast it." William James
There is a mandate given to every human to take charge and make his/her own way. The choice to succeed or fail is a personal decision, to choose none is to cease to exist.

The School of Life

The mind of the intellectual is constantly open to the input of knowledge, for only those who desire not to exist will graduate from the school of life's experiences.
"The ear that hears the rebukes of life will abide among the wise." King Solomon
In the heart of man is found the source, the magnetic force that attracts the essence of life - good or bad.

The Wanting, the Waiting and the Manifesting

"The will to win, the desire to succeed, the urge to reach your full potential... these are the keys that will unlock the door to personal excellence." Confucius
Everyone average human has an innate desire to succeed and achieve. Because when a man loses the will to succeed, a reverse process is engaged in the very fabric of what makes up his/her psychological system - that is called failure.

The challenge with succeeding is it is a long, process tedious process. It's like standing in a long queue when you could just see your destination right in front of you but you can't jump the line. It's almost like life has formulated a set of rules guiding the path we need to walk, and if anyone flaunts the rules he/she automatically engages life in an unnecessary struggle for survival.

So what do we do?

We wait!

Hold on to the will, the strong desire and determination to keep going. I personally find this difficult in real practical application but I find the more you keep going, the more strength you get to overcome the next challenge.

Great things are bound to manifest for those who wait and fix their eyes on the prize.

Take a stand. Want it, Wait for it, See it manifest!

"The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of will." - Vince Lombardi 
Leave you with this inspiring song -  "Stand" by Shawn Stockman. Enjoy.

The Fear of Fear

The fear of fear is as complicated as fear itself, but fear's influence is as limited as the choices you make in dealing with it.


Fear needs a "stimulus" to be activated. The choice of stimulus is a conscious and personal decision - a spider, stage fright, the sight of a gun etc. In my opinion, an influential stimulus that affects most humans is probably the fear of failure.

The Go-Getter and the Getting

Go-Getting isn't so much about where you want to go or what you are getting. It's a cumulation of the fact that you made a decision to take a step. Often times life presents us with difficult decisions to make and the easiest route is to the path of least resistance.

the WWI Project

The Vision is
1. to create a platform where people can share positive, inspiring and uplifting words from across the globe;
2. to utilise the power of positive words to effect positive change;
3. to reach out to people who might be in distress.

There are times in our lives when we can't explain what's happening around us. It seems like the world is turning against you and you are sinking into this dark, unending tunnel.

You scream for help but no sounds come out. It's like you've suddenly lost your voice...and the will to keep going is diminishing.

In times like this I simply look for a WORD. Not just any word but the RIGHT WORD to inspire me. I seek re-assurance that its just a temporary storm.
What is uncertain is when you'll have these moments. But it is certain they will come and you'll need the right word to inspire you.

That's the whole essence of this project - sharing your thoughts. Those words in you seeking expression might be what someone needs to get inspired. SHARE IT! It could save a life. A life saved is a generation redeemed.

I look forward to what you'll share here. Listen to the voice of that helpless souls, hear the faint whisper for help - WRITE, SHARE, INSPIRE!
