CREATING AMAZING VALUE, CREATING AMAZING STORIES

Hi all,

I suppose that many of us have read the story/article where it says that 1% of the entire population of our planet owns more than 50% of the entire wealth.

I don’t know if that it’s true or not.

There is so much information out there that we don’t know anymore what is true and what is false.

I tend to think that this is not too far from reality.

If we will search on Google, we will find out that in 2020 there will be around 1,69 billion users in total on Facebook.

In 2014, there were 1,34 billion users according to Google.

According to LinkedIn, they have more than 675 million users.

So we have this amazing power of connecting with many people using these channels of communication.

But are we using these channels for the benefit of our society or the benefit of others?

We are part of the same society – so if we would improve anything in our society, this means that is also for our benefit.

Let’s imagine that at least 300 million people that are on LinkedIn would donate 10 GBP or Euros or USD once a month to open certain businesses that would improve certain things in our society, certain things in people’s lives.

Some people are paying daily at least 1 GBP, 1 Euro or 1 USD or another currency for a cup of coffee or tea. Some are having even more than 1 cup per day.

Usually, each month we have at least 20 working days. This would mean that these people are paying at least 20 GBP, Euros or USD or another currency.

Some people are saying that those rich people (the 1 % of the entire population) are not doing anything or too much to improve the things in our society / to improve other people’s lives or any other things.

But how about the rest of 99% of the entire population?

Are we doing anything to improve the things in our society / to improve other people’s lives or any other things?

How about 675 million users that are on LinkedIn?

I am one of these 675 million users on LinkedIn.

Or do we like just to read stories about people’s ideas and initiatives regarding how they would like to improve certain things in our society / to improve other people’s lives?

The fact that we hit the ‘’Like’’ button is the only thing that makes us happy?

Is this all that we can do? Just hitting the ‘’Like‘’ button and the ‘’Share‘’ button?

Denis Diderot, a french philosopher that lived between 1713 and 1784, said: ‘’ Happiest are the ones who give most happiness to others. ‘’

Every hour on this planet, 300 people are dying of hunger.

How bad is that?

We have technologies that allow us to connect with people from around the world but we can not eradicate hunger.

If you would be one of those 300 people, what would you think about all the other people that are having a decent life on this planet?

Would you be happy to know that some have 10 properties, 10 cars, etc. and you are about to die in the next day or so because you don’t have anything to eat?

What keeps us from doing something?

Some of us are comparing ourselves with people that are richer than us and we think that they should try to do something to improve these things, not us. Because we think that we don’t have that much money to help others.

And this is the story for many of us.

We don’t think it’s our responsibility to do anything about these things.

No wonder our society it’s in the way we see it right now.

Is it that difficult to decide to do anything about it?

Is it that difficult for us to donate for the same cause?

Is it that hard for us to donate 10 GBP, 10 Euros, or 10 USD to certain causes that would make a huge difference in the lives of many people?

We are paying monthly for our bills more than 10 GBP, 10 Euros, or 10 USD.

We all like to read or see nice stories (we are enjoying watching certain movies), but how much are we contributing to create those nice stories? 

How much are we contributing to create other nice stories? 

On 15th April 2019, there was a huge fire at the Notre Dame Cathedral in France. In a few days, people have raised more than 1 billion Euros.

Don’t get me wrong – I think it’s a great idea the fact that people have managed to raise that money to rebuild the Notre Dame Cathedral.

My point is this: What is more important? To rebuild a famous cathedral or to try to improve people’s lives?

I created a page a few days ago on JustGiving.com where we can donate money for one of my business ideas. 

On that page, you will find more details about my business idea.

In the company that I would like to open, all employees would work only 6 hours per day, 5 days per week. Each employee will have 2 days off every week. 

Many of us are dreaming about finding a great/amazing company to work for.

 And maybe we have been waiting for months/years and still have not found it.

 Wouldn’t be better if we would create that amazing company instead of waiting for a company to choose us as their new employee?

 Also, we won’t know exactly how that company really is until we will work for them.

 How great/amazing do we really want to be?

 Do we like thinking small and playing small?

 Or do we prefer thinking big and playing big?

 Nelson Mandela said: ‘’There is no passion to be found playing small and settling for a life that’s less than the one you’re capable of living.’’

Mahatma Gandhi said: ‘’If you want a better world you have to create one because if you just sit around waiting for a better world, it will never come. "Be the Change you wish to see in the world".

How amazing would be if tomorrow we would open a business and we would hire around 500 people that have promoted themselves in the last month or so?

And so on and so on with many other roles.

When there are no opportunities, we create them.

That is what people can do.

We have amazing minds and we can do that if we would trust each other and if we would raise money for that.

We need to learn to see ourselves as part of the same family. I know that we tend to see ourselves more as individuals rather than a big family.

Maybe you think that I am joking in this message.

I am not joking at all.

Let’s meet face to face and discuss it.

I can provide all my details to anyone so that you will know exactly who I am.

We have the power to make amazing things and most of us are waiting for someone else to change something or to come up with an idea.

We have the idea right here. One of my business ideas.

And now that we have the idea what are we doing with it?

Are we willing to take some action or do we prefer to stay in our comfort zone and do nothing? 

What is the point of having this power if we won’t use it?

When we will be 100 years old (if we will reach that age) we will regret the fact that we did not contribute to this idea. But at that moment it will be too late.

We can write history with this if we really want this to happen.

Or we can wait for months/years/a lifetime to see if a great company will try to contact and hire us.

It’s up to us.

We don’t even realize how much power we have and how many amazing things we could achieve as a community, as a family – if we really want to see ourselves as part of the same family.

I look forward to hearing any questions/opinions/suggestions from anyone.

If a celebrity would post the above message on their page I bet that many people would read that story and would appreciate it more.

I am not a celebrity and because of this fact maybe many people will ignore the above message.

I would appreciate it if you could share this article with your friends, connections, etc.

Also if you would be able to put a comment it would be highly appreciated.

The more people will read this article the better.

Also, I am hoping that some investors will get the chance to read it.

Maybe in this way, we will find some investors that would like to contribute to this idea.

Thank you for taking the time to read the above message.
