Facts and Truth by Paul Mobley

[Jul 10, 2007] Truth supported by at least two proven facts are what we should teach our kids, will enhance a marriage, put life on a solid base, and put a business on the road that leads to success.

Madame de Stael said, "Search for truth is the noblest occupation of man." She is right. For truth supported by proven facts is food for the mind, keeping it healthy and alive. And when accepted the person will become more stable, purposeful, and happier, for he then has a stable foundation. That truth learned will be the same tomorrow and next year.

Yet in a world filled with information truth can seem to be hard to find.

The first rule is never accept anything until you have proven it true or false, especially when it will affect your life or your work, or your business. If it comes without supporting facts either drop it, or prove it before allowing it to become a part of your life. Ignore the hype, and if the source refuses to supply facts and truth about whatever it is, then run.

Second rule once you have a truth supported by facts allow your mind to study it, digest it, and derive the operating knowledge from it that it compels, rather than claims made for it.

Third rule is that now you can decide whether it fits what you are doing, fits your life, and can make use of it or not. Does it contribute toward achieving your goals for your personal life, for the projects you have in mind or then working.

Did you know?
The okapi , a mammal of the Ituri Rinforest in Central Africa bears stripped markings like the zebra on its legs but it is most closely related to the giraffe. The resemblance it bears to both the zebra and giraffe led some to believe it is a cross between the two. But it is not closely related to the zebra. The Okapi was known only to the local people of the Democratic Republic of Congo until 1901.

Heh Heh Heh...
Teasing
There was a little boy named Johnny who used to hang out at the local corner
market. The owner didn't know what Johnny's problem was, but the boys would
constantly tease him. They would always comment that he was two bricks shy
of a load, or two pickles short of a barrel. To prove it, sometimes they
would offer Johnny his choice between a nickel (5 cents) and a dime (10
cents) and John would always take the nickel -- they said, because it was
bigger.
One day after John grabbed the nickel, the store owner took him aside and
said, "Johnny, those boys are making fun of you. They think you don't know
the dime is worth more than the nickel. Are you grabbing the nickel because
it's bigger, or what?"
Slowly, Johnny turned toward the store owner and a big grin appeared on his
face and Johnny said, "Well, if I took the dime, they'd stop doing it, and
so far I have saved $20!"
