"The Ant Philosophy"

          

          I used to talk to kids about the Ant Philosophy let me give you a couple of clues now About the Ant Philosophy.

 

       Here is #1 Ants never quite If they're going somewhere And you stop them or.. Block there pathway they'll look for another way up down and all around how long will they look keep looking? until they found another waaay! See thats... that's good philosophy The ant philosophy . Here is another one! ants think winter all summer... That's way ants appear to be in a hurry all summer Gogogo GoGoGo Why? Winter winter winterHurry hurry hurry The clock is running out Time is running out Hurry hurry Get the food Bring it back the winter is almost here hurry hurry See that's good philosophy...

       so, if you got that note now: "Be Likes the Ants" Think winter in the summer Don't think summer in the summer And get Faked out Look how lovely and look how Nice See that's getting Faked out Ant's don't so that! They think winter all summer.

      Now here is the next one You've got to think summer all winter in the winter you've got to say: "We won't be in here long!" "We'll soon be out of Here!" We'll be out there working And gathering more food And providing for the Future This Winter won't last long We'll soon be out of here So the key is to think Summer in the winter AaaaNt And* Think winter in the summer Now, if somebody needs help on this You've got to learn how to put it in such a way And giving them the Ant philosophy is one of the best Think winter in the summer... 

      And then Think summer in the winter Think Negative when it is positive and Think Positive when it is Negative Isn't that a challenge? And the Answer is Yes, that's a challenge But that's life! That's the Deal! How often does winter follow Fall? Every year! Years ago I did a series of lectures? For a Chevron Dealers and their management All over America Even up in Alaska and over in Hawaii when I first started giving them this series of lectures The management and... Euh...

      

        Some of the leaders of chevron corporation called me in and we had a nice talk And they said: "Well First of all mister Rohn we would like to get acquainted" "and we heard about your presentation and..." "we think you might be able to share some good ideas" And they said: "Buy the way, you travel the world" "and, right? You know a lot of corporate executives" "and you've been in business for a long time all over the world" They asked me: "what do you think about next 10 year are gonna be like?" And I said to them: "Gentleman, you asked the right person...?"

   

        So their eyes lit up I sad: "I do have experience" "I have travelled the World" "and I've lived a long time" "and I really know the deal" "and here is how the next 10 years are going to be" "about like the last 10" Right? Winter follows Fall Some are Easy and some are hard Some are Difficult and some are Simple And then spring follows winter And for how many years now? 6000 years of recorded history! So, it isn't gonna change Here is the Essence of life: Opportunity mixed with Difficulty That's about as simple as you can put it From the beginning
