What I Like About You
What is the most desirable trait another person can possess? by Jonathan Hilton Day 43 I think it is impossible to pick one trait another person can possess. There are many factors that contribute to a personality and allow you to get to know someone in a real and genuine way. To narrow the multitude of traits to one would be much too difficult to do in the short time I have to write this so I am going to give five traits I think are desirable in others. I could probably come up with twenty without working too hard but the list of five...

What is the one thing you’d most like to change about the world? by Jonathan Hilton Day 42 If there was one thing that I could change about the world it would be to remove the thought, “I’m not good enough” , from the thought process of everyone in the world. This single thought has managed to cause more damage than any other in the history of mankind and if people are honest, every person has entertained this thought at one time or another. The fact of the matter is that if we could remove this thought, people would experience higher...

If you could offer a newborn child only one piece of advice, what would it be? by Jonathan Hilton Day 41 There would be so much that I would want to say that it would be difficult to know where to begin. In my life, I have made many mistakes and would want to let him/her know about all of the pitfalls to look out for when it comes to surviving this crazy game called life, so my one piece of advice is listen to what I am about to say and hopefully it will help you. Never Forget You Are Great The first thing that I would want them to know is...

Would you rather be a worried genius or a joyful simpleton? by Jonathan Hilton Day 40 When I read this question I don’t know whether to laugh or cry. My answer is neither but not because I have anything against genius or even anything against a simpleton, (whatever that means). I assume the question is designed to make you feel like genius comes with worry and if you are a simpler person you will experience joy. I reject the question as biased and borderline offensive. Here are my thoughts. Worry is a Choice First lets look at the word...

What does ‘The American Dream’ mean to you? by Jonathan Hilton Dreaming is one of the powers of the human mind. There are all sorts of dreams, day dreams which distract from doing our work, and then sweet dreams which occur at night to portray worlds, people and situations we may never see any other place. There are nightmares that bring our deepest, darkest fears to our experience. The American Dream is a phrase that has symbolized many things to many people. To me it means that anything is possible if a person is free they can do anything...

What’s something you know you do differently than most people? by Jonathan Hilton Day 38 Here is a shocker, please get prepared for some real news: I am different. Yes I am not just like you or anyone else on the face of the Earth. I have my own unique way of doing things that is mine alone. I sometimes borrow from others and combine the methods for completing tasks that suit me best. That doesn’t make me right or better in my methods, it just makes me different and thank God for that. I enjoy the many differences I come across in...
read moreFailure Not Fatal
Which is worse, failing or never trying? by Jonathan Hilton Day 37 Nobody in their right mind would ever set out to fail, because accomplishment is what people are all about. Yet I look at our society and I see a significant fear of failure in the eyes of most people. It is bred from our earliest school days, do what we tell you and succeed never try something your not sure of, you might fail. I think that history is fully loaded with people who have seen their share of disappointment and failure. Yet these initial setbacks worked as a...

If you could experience true love for only a week of your life would it be worth it? by Jonathan Hilton Day 36 Sometimes life seems to be full of things that are dichotomous to experience. Both bitter and sweet to the senses and often times we have to make a decision if they are worth it or not. Love is one of these experience in life. There are so many positive things to it but in the end you have to wonder is it really worth it? Wouldn’t the time be better spent developing a talent or learning to fly a kite or something? The answer...

If you haven’t achieved it yet, what do you have to lose? by Jonathan Hilton Day 35 There are two ways to go with this answer, you can say if something hasn’t happened yet then it is not ever going to happen and you could lose the few strands of hope you have left for accomplishing the task. Or the other answer can be that the time must be ripe for whatever it is that you have brewing, and dream of achieving, and the only thing you have to lose is more time passing before you achieve whatever it is you want to accomplish. THE TIME IS NOW! I...

Would you rather have less work or more work you actually enjoy doing? by Jonathan Hilton Day 34 In my life there has always been a peculiar relationship with work. There were years where I immersed myself in it and built much of my own identity around what I did for a job. This is comforting, because it is socially acceptable and it provides you with a sense of accomplishment. Yet in the end, this sense of accomplishment is really a facade. Work is something that you do to get paid or to accomplish a goal, it is simply a means to an end,...
