Earl Nightingale - 20 Minutes That Can Change Your Life


Earl Nightingale - 20 Minutes That Can Change Your Life

released on LP in 1966

I spent 20 minutes of my life listening to this and I must say that those 20 minutes could indeed change my life. Sure I listened to a numerous amount of success-motivation life-improvement records in my life. However, I haven't felt as transformed into a new man as much as I have from listening to Earl Nightingale's 20 minutes. Good thing too as I cannot ever have those 20 minutes back.

Like many other humans, I have wondered why some people were successful in life while many more were not. Earl Nightingale certainly wondered about the same thing. From those 20 minutes, it becomes clear to me that I seem like such a loser in life because I have not been concerned with focusing my efforts towards obtaining more income and to be worth a lot of money by age 65. I have been wasting my time trying to contribute knowledge to society and helping people find information through my work in real life and in some ways my in my virtual life. I have tried to make the world a better place through education and enrichment. Alas, it turns out that I have been living life in the wrong manner.

Thanks to the smooth voice of Earl, I have righted the course of my life. From now on, I will strive to increase my income and therefore increase my wealth. I will be worth millions by age 65. I will have to put off my goal of becoming a professional librarian since professional librarians are underpaid therefore I will end up being worth only thousands by age 65 if I'm lucky. I suppose that I'll have to go get an MBA (Master's of Business Administration). That will be difficult because I can't afford to pay for more classes. Most of my paycheck is going towards paying student loans that were used for getting the Master of Library Science degree.

Then I remembered Earl talking about attitude on side 2. I need to change my attitude and emulate the attitude and personality of a person I want to be like. The person that Earl has in mind is someone who already has a high income and is projected to be worth a lot of dough at age 65. Gosh, there's no one like that in my chosen profession. Perhaps I need to read Fortune or Forbes to find a 1%er to emulate and admire. I'm sure the 1%ers have the right attitude while the rest of the people, who are being used to make more money for the 1%ers, seem to lack the right attitude.

Earl recommends coming up with at least 5 ideas per day on how to increase one's income. Earl says that one doesn't have to come up with any ideas on the weekend. He says that 25 ideas per week presents opportunities for achieving the goal of increasing income. He says some ideas are worthless while a few could be excellent. The point is to have a positive attitude and keep coming up with ideas to increase wealth, forget the rest of society, most of them are losers anyway who have a poor attitude. Earl says that the more one contributes to his efforts, the more rewards there will be for his efforts. It is implied that one must work more hours to get more money. BTW, the record is targeted at males meaning that the women are there to provide support for their men to increase their income while keeping the house clean and fixing meals. Another implication is that women don't need to increase their income. The top rungs of society must agree as they're still paying women less than men in the same jobs. Geez, if only those women weren't so darn uppity, they could go back to keeping house and serving the men in their quest for more income instead of striving for equality.

So, here are 20 minutes that too can change your life (or not you loser). At least, you get to hear the smooth voice of Earl.

Willard Cantelon - The New World Money System


Willard Cantelon - The New World Money System

A couple of years ago, I posted an LP by Willard Cantelon where he spoke about the evils of LSD.
On this LP, Mr. Cantelon warns us about the supposedly impending "new world money system." According to Cantelon, there is a plot by groups of powerful wealthy individuals to introduce not only a one-world government, but a single currency to be used everywhere in the world. No doubt life would be easier for a one-world government to have only one currency. No pesky exchange rates to worry about.

So how does Cantelon know about the one-world conspiracy? It's in the Bible. More specifically, it's in the Book of Revelations. The Bible predicted sinister groups such as the IMF, the World Bank, and the UN will take over the world and the Anti-Christ may or may not be running the show. Thank goodness Cantelon knows how to derive what the Bible is saying as lots of people including myself never would have figured out the meaning in the text. Not only did Cantelon consult the Bible, he also attended important monetary conventions and talked to some financial experts and leaders.

Cantelon answers the following questions that are posed on the back cover:


1) Why will a New World Money System definitely be introduced?


2) When will this New System be established?


3) What will be the fate of our present currencies?


4) What will be the nature of the New System?


5) How can one prepare NOW to avoid the great losses and dangers ahead?


6) How can one read future developments?
