THE IDEA
Youths…how do we start?Think like a ‘mad’ man
Inspirational QuotesWhat always made me different was my
ability to ask the most child like questions. Einstein
For an Idea which at first does not seem absurd, there is no hope. Einstein
Let me task your brain cells
What is this?…
Rubbish (Street cleaner)
Compost (Gardener)
A leaf (Joe Public)
A meal (Insect)
A Still life (Photographer)
A cell system (Biologist)
National symbol (Canadian)
Adam’s loin-cloth (Eve)
In otherwords, thinking like a ‘mad’ man is really about the
process of looking at the same thing as everyone else BUT
thinking something different.
List out three things you dislike around youLets take for example
A) The EnvironmentB) The GovernmentC) CommunityD) School

A SMALL TRUTH TO MAKE LIFE
100%
Hard Work H+A+R+D+W+O+R+K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%
KnowledgeK+N+O+W+L+E+D+G+E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%
LoveL+O+V+E
12+15+22+5 = 54%
LuckL+U+C+K
12+21+3+11 = 47% ( don't most of us think this is the most important ??? )
Then what makes 100% ?Is it Money ? ... NO ! ! !
M+O+N+E+Y13+15+14+5+25 = 72%
Leadership ? ... NO ! ! !L+E+A+D+E+R+S+H+I+P
12+5+1+4+5+18+19+9+16 = 89%
Every problem has a solution, only if we perhaps change our
attitude.To go to the top,to that 100%,
what we really need to go further... a bit more...
So what then makes 100% ???
ATTITUDE A+T+T+I+T+U+D+E
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%
It is OUR ATTITUDE towards Life and Work that makes OUR Life
100% ! ! !
Change Your Attitude …And You Change Your Life ! ! !
Now that you know the answer…
THE LEAST YOU CAN DO IS TO GET YOUR TEAM
TOGETHER AND MAKE THAT CHANGE
WHAT WILL YOU DO ABOUT IT ?
