The Other

<ul>
<li data-mce-="">I believe that I am here for the other and not myself.</li>
<li data-mce-="">My job on this planet is to make sure that I help my fellow humans succeed.</li>
<li data-mce-="">It makes sense to me that if we all give each other a hand up (not a hand out), we’ll all succeed.</li>
<li data-mce-="">Think about it, if we all had an “other” mentality, we wouldn’t have a starving child on this planet or a war either, for that matter.</li>
<li data-mce-="">But we’re far from there. Our consciousness is still very much stuck on “how much can I take for myself” and not on “how much can I give of myself”.</li>
<li data-mce-="">Oh, just in case you think I’m an altruistic, do-gooder, bunny hugging hippy who thinks he has found the answer to it all; don’t.</li>
<li data-mce-="">I’m very much in this world. I know that we all need the security piece or peace-of-mind that earning a living brings.</li>
<li data-mce-="">So, I’m all for earning a fantastic living so that we can have the toys, eat well and thrive.</li>
<li data-mce-="">But, I’ve learned not to confuse the making of money and getting stuff with fulfilment, contentment, harmony and happiness.</li>
<li data-mce-="">As Sheikh Ebrahim Schuitema is so fond of saying, “No amount of money in your bank account will fill the hole in your chest called insecurity.”</li>
