Building Blocks For a Stronger Nation

Good vs Evil

Every problem in our society we're experiencing, right now, is a result of one issue, self-control. When any situation escalates to the point that one party or both behave irrationally it is because someone has lost control. Rather than possessing power over their thoughts, words and behavior, they are at the mercy of them or at the mercy of someone else's. If you know how to control yourself, no one else can control you. This is the challenge that every individual on the planet living in modern society faces. As technology becomes more and more advanced, the devices we use are allowing people to neglect their own mental abilities more and more. It's become much easier, right now, to be mentally lazy than it has ever been in the history of human kind. This is making it harder not easier to control ourselves. If you want the world to become better then you have to become better.

At this point, we've all seen it in real life video clips far too many times where a situation becomes dangerous and life-threatening in a matter of seconds. This needs to stop. It takes two to tango. If one party has no ability to control themselves, the other party must. Those who possess this ability will always prevail in the end. Mob mentality takes over when a group of people have no self-control and though their effectiveness can be destructive it is always short-lived. Those with no mental discipline have no staying power. A group of people who possess self-control are steady, consistent and unstoppable. If you haven't figured it out by now, we are the problem. All of us. We need to stop bickering uncontrollably. Anyone motivated by deceit and dishonesty can easily create conflict in a person or a society that has no self-control. This is what we have become. It's time to grow up. Master your mind and you will master the world, not to control the world or others, but to control yourself and play a role in the success of making the world a better place.
