Fact or Fiction?

What is fact? What is fiction, on the other hand?

"Fact" could be explained in "something which most people believe", and "fiction" is something opposite. When a fiction is being repeat, repeat and repeat, it'll slowly becoming fact.

wiwt would give this example: DRAGON.

In the western community, most people believe that dragon is a winged creature, long neck and tail, blazing, four legs, etc.


In the East, the impression of dragon is totally different, which discribe a dragon as a horned crocodile-like creature, flying without wing, etc.

At the end, you can see a lot of artifact potrait dragon, buildings, scruptures, 3D toys, and so on.

Now, dragon should be fact or fiction?

Another example, you've been told that you don't look healthy today, in a row, by 3 friends of yours, you would propably ring your doctor for appointment.

In this case, "you don't look healthy today" should be fact or fiction?



Applying the same rule, "you can't make it", "you are looser", "you are poor", "you are lazy", "you are hopeless", "you are bla-bla-bla", all sort of damn you receive everyday, from your friend or even you yourself, would probably come true.

wiwt suggest, keep saying "you are smart", "you are great", "you are healthy", "you are rich and wealthy", "you are evergetic", "you are superb", to your friend and yourself. You can feel the changes from "fiction" to "fact".

Fact or fiction doesn't metter, the effect and impact does!

Sand Bag? Rocky Bag?

In a training camp, trainees are told to carry either one, a sand bag(5kg) and a rocky bag(7kg), along the whole training route.

'You'll have to climb up the hill, swim through the river, and walk pass the swampy ground. The whole journey would be around 5 miles,' instructor told the trainees.

By knowing the distance of the journey, most trainees choose the 5 kg sand bag, instead of heavier 7 kg rocky bag.

At the finishing line, those who chosen the rocky bag succeeded, the rest failed. After swim through the river, the 5 kg sand bag become 10 kg, but the rocky bag remain 7 kg.

.....

wiwt says, the story tells, everyone have to go through life, either to suffer early or double later.

Most people didn't sacrifice enjoyment in life in their early age, by start saving and invest, that's why the have to suffer in the elderly life.
This will be the effect here...
