kennywtelejazz Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 (edited) This was from a poem written by Kent M. Keith and read to her children by the amazing Hedy Lamarr, actress, inventor, big thinker. “ The Paradoxical Commandments People are illogical, unreasonable, and self-centered. Love them anyway. If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives. Do good anyway. If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies. Succeed anyway. The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway. Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable. Be honest and frank anyway. The biggest men and women with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest men and women with the smallest minds. Think big anyway. People favor underdogs but follow only top dogs. Fight for a few underdogs anyway. What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight. Build anyway. People really need help but may attack you if you do help them. Help people anyway. Give the world the best you have and you’ll get kicked in the teeth. Give the world the best you have anyway.” WOW ! some deep stuff ... For those that didn't know , Hedy Lammar was not only an Iconic actor in the Hollywood heyday . She was also the inventor of Spread Spectrum Technology.

Tezza Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 The Paradoxical Commandments (with my edits) People are illogical, unreasonable, and self-centered. Point out their inadequacies back to them. Hold your pointed finger one inch from their face. If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives. Tell them to F&@K off. One inch from their face. If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies. Use them as they would have tried to use you, then tell them what you did and gloat in their face. The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow. Scream louder about your accomplishments. Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable. Being honest and frank about others failures makes them vulnerable. The biggest men and women with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest men and women with the smallest minds. Turn the gun back on them and blast away. People favor underdogs but follow only top dogs. Become a top dog. What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight. Make sure your insured. People really need help but may attack you if you do help them. Tell them they are ungrateful loudly to their face. Give the world the best you have and you’ll get kicked in the teeth. Kick them back in the teeth and continue to do what you know is right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
