Helping the Helpless

Is introducing a subject by speaking of oneself in in a detached context really cool, or an extremely unimpressive way to start a blog??? Who knows but I did it.

What the hell does a guy do who knows what his problem is, what he needs to do, has a pretty good idea what he wants to do and what it takes to do it, and really it is a little confused but if I could put it in a scope then I think I could pull it off but how do you real in a focus that hasn't ever had to be????  Thoughts?

I mean I have several projects on the go, several tasks, all of which need to get done, then their is the background on them that needs to be 'sorted' out.  What do we have, what do I know.

I think I have people who could help me and I think that is a good step but I can't do it without my wifes involvement I think; but I don't think she knows what all it entails.  It certainly entails persistance, old fashioned persistance. As Calvin Coolidge stated:

"Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence.
Talent will not: nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.
Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.
Education will not: the world if full of educated derelicts.
Persistence and Determination along are omnipotent."

I need to have that persistance and dogged determination and not in the form of a race to be one as quickly as possible, but in a mountain to be climbed and its peak can only be attained through training and repetition. Cause it can't all be done in a day or week or even a month. 

Greatness can still be mine, influencing our social environment can be something which I can do while leading my family and my career.  Certainly I like to serve but I need to serve myself now first and the rest can fall in with that.

It really is a funny thing the mind, the way it traps us and holds us captive at times; are there perhaps two people, some that are captive and others that are so afraid of being captive that they run from place to place, high to high, task to task.  One certainly comes off looking a lot better but doesn't really handle society all that well!
