The message I got from watching Pinky and the Brain cartoons

One thing I have to say about the Brain is that he NEVER gave up on trying to take over the world. No matter how many times he failed, the very next episode he forgot about his past mishaps and tried a new way of accomplishing the goal. I must say, the Brain was a very optimistic little dude and I respect him for that. That is the same thing I want people to live by. Not necessarily saying that I want people to fail at every attempt they make to do great things, but just NEVER giving up and knowing that one day soon, all that hard work will pay off. I don't think my generation really knows about hard work, they just want the outcome of it. You have to lay down a foundation in order to build a house, you can't just build a house on uneven land because it will eventually fall over.

Pinky was that friend, you know that one friend that kept a person from reaching their goals. He was the friend that you keep at a distance because he messed up too much. He never took anything seriously. Every time the Brain was close, here comes Pinky dumb ass messing ish up! He never listened, if you're a part of a team, you must work together, not do your own thing. You stay away from people that posses those qualities . It's going to be friends and family that you love to pieces and think that because you knew them for years and years that they have to be there on your "come up", and that is not the case. Those people are blocking your blessings and will enable you from doing you. That's why you have to watch the company you keep and not all people are good people. You never truly know a person until you lived with them, have a baby by them or some ish goes down and their behinds is no where to be found. You want to have people in your corner with the same ambitions. I once read this, if you want to be a CEO, you attach yourself to a person or people that is already living that dream because that is where you want to be. If all you do is hang around a friend that doesn't work and is lazy, then you will become that over time. Remain motivated and with people that push you to do your best!
