The Struggling Blogger

I am The Struggling Blogger, and in my struggles in the blogging world I have met different types of blogger’s personality. I’ve seen some who seemed to be closing the door on other bloggers, as if they own the blogosphere. Who are so self-engrossed and who thinks that they are the norms and standards that all bloggers should emulate. This post is not about them.

This is about bloggers who believes that the blogosphere can be one great community, where bloggers support bloggers. Who believes that one more additional blogger does not make the blogging kingdom too crowded and would always welcome and accept a new blogger friend. Whose advocacy and every posts flows on positivism and productivity.

This is my humble share to create that world, a world of bloggers supporting bloggers.

Let us talk about health insurance plans. This is something that is not most people would like to invest into, aside from it being an intangible product, they will always say that they will just keep themselves healthy. They will exercise, eat healthy foods and live a healthy life, instead of spending their money on any health insurance.

Unfortunately, these people may have the wrong idea about health insurance. If only they can get the right health insurance must know information, this misconception could be erased and they might learn to appreciate the value of health insurance.

I am still not feeling well, in spite of what I’m posting in the comments here and in different blogs. That’s what I hate about me sometimes, the effect of anxiety takes so long to wear out. I’m having a hard time writing some serious stuffs now. I wasn’t even submitting anything on my other ‘writing’ job because I can’t write. Anyway, I dug this old article of mine from my archive and thought of posting it here, while I’m still trying to compose myself. It’s something I wrote when we were still living in our own house, and my wife was still here.

Writing… Just for the heck of it!

What a title! Did it catch your attention? I bet it did! If not, why did you reach this far? Honestly, it’s hard to start a topic especially when you don’t really have any idea in mind of what to write about. You feel that you need to express something. Something within is just raring to go out, it wants to escape, it wants to be heard, to be seen, to be read, TO BE SOMETHING! You know it, you can feel it, but you just can’t put a finger on it. Really now, is this really something worth writing? And afterward, something worth reading? I really don’t know. It doesn’t really make sense, does it? Well, sometimes life doesn’t really make sense.

Lottery is the only way someone can get rich without lifting a finger, but then you still need to go out and buy your ticket for you to have a chance. But why leave your fate to chance? When the fruits of success tastes better when you have worked for it.

Nouveau Riche is French for ‘new rich’ and many have become this - rising from rags to riches, with inspiring stories to tell of their successes. But like what I’ve been saying often, they have worked hard to get to where they are. And these are not just people who gained lots of money, but have also achieved fame, glory and respect.

There is a long list of people who have become Nouveau Riche - the great talk show host Oprah, the Silicon Valley icon Bill Gates, even the newly elected president of the US Obama can be an inspiring source of rags to riches story. But these people, and others who have successfully crossed from rags to riches, did not just sit around waiting for change to happen. They ‘made’ change happen.

You too can become Nouveau Riche - but you need to get up, flex those muscles, roll-up those sleeves and get to work. Don’t wait for things to happen, make things happen.For only a farmer who toiled long and hard on the field can expect to reap the fruit of his harvest.

Yes, I did say ‘get rich‘ but I did not say ‘get rich quick.’ Which means you have to work your butt because moolahs won’t come dropping on your lap. I need to clear that up, lest some ’self-made’ bloggers misquote me on that.

But how can Nouveau Riche University help you get rich? For one, they deal in the real estate investment and we all know how lucrative that industry can be. And since they are in that industry, they have created a university-like environment that will teach their students all the basics, as well advance techniques, that they need to know to become a successful real estate investor.

Yes, it’s true, there are already lots of Nouveau Riche University graduates who have already made it big in the real estate investment industry. BUT, it’s a big but, before you get your hopes high and start painting castles in the air - they did work. They absorbed the system and applied it in real life.

Nouveau Riche University can be a dynamic source of learning, especially now that it has a former University of Phoenix as its president. But remember, it always start with you. First you need to make a decision, and believe in that decision - then go and work for it.

That is the only way to get rich.
