BALANCE: The Choice Is Yours. Are You a Wolf or a Sheep?
Greetings Blog Family,
Welcome to my show, BALANCE, get some in yo life!
In today’s society, we often times play the victim in our lives and wonder why things are going differently than we desire. But today, I want you to realize that you are the master of your fate and hold the keys to create what you want. You can be a wolf or a sheep.
You have a choice.
The Sheep:
Sheep are employees. Employees that are waiting around for someone to give them a better job, give them a chance, give them an opportunity, give them a stimulus check. Please understand there is nothing wrong with being an employee, but just realize that you don’t control your future that way. You will always be at the hands or mercy of the wolf.
The Wolf:
The wolf is the entrepreneur. The person that is willing to invest in themselves, take calculated risk, and create the environment they desire to produce the outcome they want. The wolf is in control of their future and dominates the sheep.
Dominate might be a strong term, but they manage the fear of the sheep and leverage their time, talents, techniques in order to create the empire the wolf desires. Understand, the sheep just want a cozy, comforting, environment that leads to a paycheck. And the wolf nurtures this environment and fear to give them just what they want to create what the wolf really desires.
Granted, everyone in life is not cut out to be a wolf, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t right for you. Only you can make that choice.
Tough Economic Times
I realize these tough economic times can cause some hesitation, even frustration, but realize that it is these times historically that most millionaires have been made. Do you have what it takes to be the next millionaire…or billionaire?
I don’t know, but there is one thing that I can promise. If you don’t get off the sidelines and allow the wolf inside you to run wild, you will never know if you have what it takes.
Take this time to ask yourself the question….Are you a wolf or a sheep?
First in the Mind, then in Reality!

Solid video post, Taylor! I'm liking this series a lot.
Sorry I have not been around much recently. How about a catch up and a game of chess sometime soon?

Yo, Freddie. Interesting analogy. I couldn't exactly remember where I heard this before but if I were to choose, I would want to be the forest where the wolfs live. LOL
Oh yeah, most millionaires are born when everyone look elsewhere and away from the opportunities. Thanks for reminding me of who I am and what I will be…..

Thank you, Yan. You may have heard this from the movie \”Training Day\” with Denzel Washington. LOL! He asked Jake if he was a Wolf or a Sheep. Hahahaha, I love that movie!
I know you are running wild with the wolfs and looking for the overstepped opportunities every chance you get.
Get it!!!

Yes Taylor! I love it man, you're right dude, you gotta chose, make your choice and run with it! Keep it coming bro!

Yeah, glad you feeling me. I am on a roll and cracking out the content, so this should be a staple. Plus, I am having fun and people are really feeling me this time around.
I am letting the wolf out and going to get some these eyeballs on the Internet with my show….taking it to the next level!!! I got one more show coming, but don't want to rush it's introduction.

Not everyone wants a pressure of being a wolf though. Some people just want a steady 9-5 job instead of worrying about traffic and ad revenue all the time.

That is very true and that is why I pointed out that there is nothing wrong with it. But if you are a wolf, EVERYTHING IS WRONG WITH THAT LINE OF THINKING and they want the pressure all the time.
Life is comforting as an employee, just not for everyone.
Thanks for the comment.

Great post Freddie! I needed to read this, man, I need to be a little more wolf-ish… I know I got it in me, but I think my wolf has been sleeping under the shade tree recently. Nothing wrong with a little nap I guess… Lol..
Great post man, keep it up.

Not sure if my last comment went through so I will try this again:
Nice post Freddie. I think this is something I needed to hear as I have been chillin in the middle more recently. I know I have the wolf in me, but I think he has been chillin under the shade tree recently. Nothing wrong with a little nap though I guess… Lol…
Great job man, keep it up.
8:07 pm on April 8th, 2009
LOL! Nothing wrong with a little nap, but WAKE UP AND RUN WITH THE PACK!!!!
8:08 pm on April 8th, 2009
LOL! It went through, but glad you made sure it did. Got a few more coming at you. Thanks for participating, my man!

I think there's something to be said for a nice blend of the two. As a painter, straight wolf. As a job-employee, 3/4 sheep. And it's better that way for me. I've run into trouble where my wolf spirit and ambition pushes me too much in areas where I'd be better off just swimming with the group and working hard. Know what I mean? Pick your battles, kind of thing.

Some of us are wolves in sheep's clothing

Nice response

Nice post, I like it. The victim mentality will get you nowhere in life. You got to take responsibily for your life and go out and make things happen. Nobody else is going to do it for you.

One thing we need to realize – we can't all be wolves. Wolves need sheep and in a way, sheep need wolves to thin the herd, so to speak. Still I do agree that some people could "upgrade" to a wolf if they realize their full potential.

Unfortunately, you are absolutely correct. I am just hoping that all my visitors are wolves….as that is who I am talking to. Thanks for stopping by and joining the conversation.

Well, this is the most realistic post I've ever seen on this topic. I look at myself putting in this wolf-sheep situation this way. I am a sheep at work, working from 10 am to 6 pm and am a wolf at home while I work around my blog. I enjoy being both. So it really doesn't matter whether you are a sheep or a wolf, just the thing is that you have to put a concentrated effort at being both and play your role at your best. Sheep has to dodge the wolves and wolves have to bully the sheep.(But pity I don't have any sheep to bully one!)
