Hi Gordon,
This reminds me of a conversation I had a few days ago...
A friend of mine is supporting his daughters to study overseas. But they are having trouble...
He's wondering what to do...
What should they study? What skills do you need in life?
He's very concerned about his daughters.
So I told him my philosophy... My philosophy that has done well for me over the last 20 years...
At some point, I thought about jungle survival skills.
What if you're lost in the jungle. How will you survive?
You may think of Bear Grylls... or Les Stroud ("Survivorman"), for those who know of him...
How do you make a fire? How do you find food? How do you stop yourself from becoming food for something else?!?!!
Well, it's the same in the "urban jungle"...
Urban jungle survival skills! That's what you need...!
I've been honing and increasing my "urban survival skills" - starting in 1995, 21 years ago...
For me, that (mostly) means various business skills...
Some of the skills I've honed for myself are things like... sales skills. Copywriting skills. Negotiating and deal-making skills. General writing skills. Chatteling skills. I've recently added importing and exporting skills. Also on how to build your contacts. I'm working on my raising capital skills (to do finance work, for some opportunities I have on my plate)...
Well,
you also need "urban survival skills"... And so do those you know. The ones you love. They need them too.
Why? You may not be around forever to support them. When you're gone... Your loved ones will also need urban survival skills, too!
The more survival skills you have - the better off you'll be! Plus, you can teach them to others, too... And help them as well.
That's one thing that Gordon is offering... Increase your "urban survival skills"... You'll never regret it!
I've never regretted it for a second! And, nowadays, I'm reaping the benefits... (I'm currently in Holland, on a fun "halfway around the world" trip...)
Why don't you reap the benefits, too?
