INSPIRATION

Young man, young wowan
You're a product with EXPIRING DATE
Why waste your time on things that has no eternal value?

COUNTless, even most see problems

But FEW see opportunity

No wonder GEMS are hard to find in the mountain of junk

The PROBLEMS in your locality is your OPPORTUNITY

If you doubt me, ask the movers and shakers

Problems are opportunity in disguise

THINK your way through the problem-

Exercise your BRAIN muscle

Get bigger than the system around you

You were born to upgrade and improve other people's life

FIGHT for your future!

If you don't, you will live your DAYS in SERVITUDE

and your YEARS in PAIN

It's easier to give in to BULLIES.

FIGHT!!!

Why follow the easy path?

THIS YEAR'S 40 UNDER 40 (Business's hottest rising stars)

Meet this year's class of youthful movers and shakers. They're innovating, they're expanding and they're not really thinking about recession. If these youngsters can, you can also!!!!
