Things we can all be thankful:
1. We are in America - Regardless of what anyone says America is the greatest country in the world. In America if you want something you can get it. If you want to be an entrepreneur their is a business you can start. If you want to be a teacher their is a student you can teach. If you want to help the needy their is somewhere you can volunteer. This is the only country in the world where their are virtually no limits. The only limits you place in America are the limits you place on yourself. If you know what your worth, you can go get what your worth and America is the country to be.
2. Your Heritage - My original last name was De Costar, my direct lineage was Louis II the king of Spain. The story of my last name is that Louis II had two son and when it came time to gift the brothers the kingdom they divided the land equally. One wanted the land "by the coast" which is Spanish is De Costar and thus the name was born. After the king was overthrown they relocated to Germany and took the last name Koester which was pronounced "Kester" in Germany as in a butt. So they ended up changing the name to Coester and hence the Coester Family was born.
Their are very few Coester's in the world I have never ever met someone or heard of someone that had that name that wasn't related.
That is just the tip of the iceberg to a long heritage of the Coester Family. The history is amazing to think about what others done before you have done. And if they could do it you can do it also.
3. The economy and the market - I know people aren't happy with the economy but it is still an amazing place. Right now you can buy shares of some of the largest companies in the world at bargain prices. Think about how much work was put into your business, or current job? And now think about all the hours of work it has take to start and grow a company like General Electric or Proctor Gamble, and to get in as a partner its less the $50.00 AMAZING!! Right now we are more fortunate that any other time in the world and should be acting as if we had just won the lottery because we really have.
We currently enjoy the benefits of businesses we didn't start, school's we didn't found, and laws we didn't create. We enjoy the benefits of books we didn't write, problems we didn't solve and we have access to all of this. In today's world their is nothing out of reach to a person looking. You want to become a doctor go for it. You want to become President go for it.
Start from poverty, start from despair, start from nothing, ghetto, and become the next great American success story all by using the resources that are already available and within reach. All you have to is go for it.
4. Teachers and Authors - Someone spends 30 years of their life in a career you are interested in and they write a book. How much is the book? $40,000 NO only about $19.95 and its free at your local library. How could you not invest your time in learning from the past, how valuable would that information be? You cant put a price tag on.
Right now I am taking martial arts at Yamaski academy in Rockville,MD and they charge $150.00 per month. Someone might say "$150.00 per month that's allot".Think about what you are getting. They have world class instructors daily, they have a huge facility that's over 10,000 sq ft. They have the mats, the bags , the weights, all the necessary tools for you to become the best you want to be all for $150.00 a months its AMAZING!! You could spend 10 years of your life their and be a world renowned martial artists all for under the price of a car. The market and economy is an amazing place!
5. The miracle of the world - They say God is the only one that has the ability to create, but humans have an ability to do something almost God like which is re-create. God has the ability to make a tree, but humans can plant the seed and grow a forest. God has the ability to make wood but humans can use that wood and make a chair, or a home or many other things. Imagine if God told you that you had to make the tree?
The miracle of the world is to take just simple things and make them work together. They can now run an automobile off of corn, or bird poop, or grass, or trash, or water, or just about anything now. Their are limitless possibilities. The world is a very simple place everything just works together so perfectly and you can enjoy all of this FREE!!
5. Friends and Family - The miracle of friends and family. They say friends are the people who know everything about you and still like you. Be blessed for all the great friends you have, because they are a great resource for you
