A Whole New Series:
Welcome to the first publication of
my new series; A Few Dead Men. As the good book says, many are called few are
chosen, giving credence to the fact that it is not everyone that will always
succeed even though all given equal opportunities. It is a common principle
that most often it is a proportion of a given population that excels and
largely influences the crowd or majority. In Brian Tracy’s Advanced Selling
Strategies he purported the 80/20 rule of success, stating that for the success
achieved by a group 20% are doing 80% of the work. This is also affirmed by
John Templar in his Laws of Business.
Recent report shows this also
reflecting in the economic sphere globally showing a micro percentage of the
world population richer and more influential than the larger population. About
360 individuals in the united States alone are considered richer than up to 60%
of the entire population, in fact the net worth of the top 10 richest people in
the world are richer than an entire African region (West, Central and East
Africa).
This series explores some of the
most celebrated individuals from across the world and discover their habits;
“their deaths”.
Death here may not mean literal
translation but the metaphorical depiction of death; none existence of certain
habits, traits, characters and habits which distinguish them. Most of these men
and women have given certain comforts, conveniences, aspirations, ambitions,
relationships, luxuries and lifestyles for the sake of the common good. They
died to self and now live in the world’s hall of legacy.
