be cool, its just a C-



My goals are modest and revolve more around the difference I can make in a community than any set number of dollars earned or clients served. The difference I want to make in the world with my MBA wont be measured in the number of new franchises opened or steak dinners I’ll be treated too. Instead I will satisfied to see closed store fronts lit up again with the hard work of an idealist entrepreneur. I want to see a world with less waste space, less expansion into nature and better use of the spaces already created by man. I want to use business and my knowledge of the workings of capital to efficiently and responsibly give people the ability to expand their ambitions from the realm of unknowing and imagination into the real world for the benefit of everyone in their community and beyond. I saw today a jet that will transport people from paris to Tokyo in just under three hours. But who benefits from such a machine? There will still be teaming slums in the suburbs of paris full of people who never have the opportunity to leave their daily troubles and foils, much less for a daily jaunt to Tokyo. I believe that as the world becomes smaller for some, the slums become more crowded and pressurized for others. The whole world of professionals is filled with pressure and stress. It’s imperative that you understand that I believe that these people are stressed. The high blood pressure and receding hairlines will not lie, a professional in a suit and tie staying late at the office is as stressed as any other man. I question though what it is that these people are stressed over. The world of professionals in the united states stopped producing things years ago. A twelve hour work day is not possible for those who have a physical aspect to their work. So those who choose to pursue professions that ask nothing of them physically are forgoing the world of the body, which is where instincts and humanity lie. Would any man work through the day if he valued the passage of time? For the people who work from sun up to sun down and well into the darkness of midnight the hours on the clock exist only to prove their dedication to work, however the actual quality of their contribution cannot be increased with each consecutive hour on the job. People require variety and spice in life. Money becomes a blinding driver of irrational behavior, dread and anxiety.
