Money
Do you have to be a genius to work out that we are slaves to it? Whether consciously or through necessity we have no choice other than to amass as much as we can to protect ourselves from the world of men, and the world of nature, and our own self-regard. And yet when we have it vultures circle around all the while waiting for an opportunity to steal it away.
Some will tell you they don't care for money, these people can tell you this because no doubt they are immune in some way from the pitfalls of its absence, either supported by people with money, or supported in some privileged way by the state, or they are prepared, mentality, to suffer the hardships of poverty from a matter of principle. It would not be fair for you to have to share this view. If you are afraid of poverty then the only way you might endure it, should it arrive, could be to retreat into some fantasy world where the need for an income was not present.
If you prefer a career over the amassing of wealth be prepared to be buffeted all along your way by those who would like to take advantage of your 'calling' by reducing your income to increase their profit. This will happen and it will upset you.

Get it or suffer unless you are very lucky

Attention
How do we know how others see? My whole life I have had problems with reading and mathematics. Mathematics problems usually involve sign errors, simple errors in writing down one step to another. These errors produce the wrong results (obviously) and the more they happen the more tiresome they become and the more they happen again.
My reading is slow, always has been. I like to think it is because I prefer to enjoy a sentence or that I lack a trick in seeing more.
The point I suppose is that these issues are either training problems, vision problems, or mental problems. You could solve it I through a process of elimination. But unless it is addressed early the handicap will affect your progress.
How do you know that you see as well as others in a physical as well as a mental sense?

Even with glasses the errors occur. What is missing?

Coincidence
Only three days ago I took a DVD from beneath my television, Kurt Russell, and Kathleen Quinlan in the 1997 film Breakdown, at the very same time I heard the word breakdown used in a discussion on the radio. I had not been looking for the DVD.
This happens to me a lot. I read a word in let us say a newspaper and there it is broadcast on the radio, obscure words, even phrases. At one time I thought I should list these words and phrases because it may turn out that they were part of an ongoing message, a message being relayed to me from somewhere about something. But after missing a few words through laziness in not writing them down I guess the message became indecipherable and I gave it up.
I also gave it up because I decided that if there was an important message in these coincidental words and phrases then that message would be better relayed all at once in order to guarantee capture and avoid confusion. Patently this was not the case. So I altered my interpretation of these events. Instead of seeking a message I now simply regarded these coincidences as indicators that I was on the right track, like cats eyes in the road - signposts.

A message? A direction? A confirmation? Nothing at all?
Can gi supply the answer?

Luck
Is there such a thing as luck? Those in control assert you make your own luck but they would wouldn't they, it fits their Darwinian/Hitlarian doctrine of survival of the fittest. In the competition melee if your base stats are low you better make sure that your fighting skills - your brown nose, your malleable politics, your covering tactics, your networking, your fine history (bogus or real) - will win. Of course if your base stats are high you will win regardless.
Luck exists: it exists in your face, your hair colour, your height, your build, your health, your character, your social class, your schooling, your parents: a whole armoury of luck before we even start. Of course there are exceptions, but in the Darwinian/Hitlarian pyramid life opportunities reduce dramatically the higher you climb. It goes without saying that the greater your score of luck when the die is set at the start of your life the easier your life, barring accident, will be.

Looks like luck has it - or can gi win?

The Horror
An example of control. One of my ex managers in a yearly update of my progress confessed proudly that during his own interview he had described himself as born anal. Another member of the same team was of a similar disposition. On attending a character assessment day my colour was green whilst my two retentive colleagues competed with each other to be as red as they could be. Chalk and cheese, fire and water - complete opposites - I suffered their unwavering, brittle, coronary-inducing, rapid-fire anality for over five years, however, to be rid of them, to remove them from my life, to gain my freedom, the cost was a descent into poverty.
Anal people do not bend, they are right, their methods are right, their solutions are right, their opinions are right. They are brittle, their intention is to break you, to mould you in their image, because being so right in everything they think and do can only mean they are god-like. So who else should you resemble?
Working with people like these will destroy you. The only way to circumvent them is to get to a level where you can control and recruit your own team, effectively hold up a sign which states in the clearest possible terms - no anals.
Anal companies employ anals. They support anal governments and adhere to anal laws. You do not need gi to spot these firms, these people, these laws, these governments, but you certainly need it to overcome them.
The power of gi.

A case in point
In my experience the vast majority of people get work through contacts.
There is no escaping the requirement to work, we have to work to survive despite the protestations of the right that the welfare state provides a standard of living comparable to a holiday camp (when did they last try it?). A great way to lose total control of your life is to fall into the 'net' of the welfare state.
A manager from one company I worked for got another management post nearby when he became redundant. A redundancy round occurred during this period and the majority of those who fell victim found work with this ex manager. I, who had been made redundant at the same time, was not employed by him. I was effectively black-listed. The remaining unemployed members of the work force got back into employment through companies they had worked for previously or historic colleagues. To my knowledge not one found work through cold calling or agencies.
The 'who you know' mantra is alive and well. Only last night a young man told me he found work at his new firm through his mother who was a receptionist there.
So for the most part agencies, qualifications, experience, the shield of equal opportunity, and etc, these count for little in the search for work - the main driver is who-you-know.

Do we know you?
In future posts we will discuss how gi can circumvent this.
