For a beginner there are so many challenges you face. It's hard to know how to get started. Trading the forex market has really been a life changer for me. I almost gave up on crypto currency at some point not until I got a proficient broker Mr. DENNIS. to handle my trades. I made more profit than I could ever imagine. I'm not here to converse much but to share my testimony; I have made total returns of about 5.6BTC from an investment of just 0.95BTC. Thanks I'm really grateful especially during the lockdown. I have been able to make a great returns trading with one of the best platforms around. I discovered I made more income better than what my current job pays. I urge you to take bold step by giving the Bitcoin market a trial if you really want to make more money. Here you can reach him *Dennis_forex09* @ instagram, send a direct text...

    She is right. You don't have to do specific work do be kind to someone who is sad, to smile on the street , to help someone, to be friendly on the phone at work to a caller etc. Please don't forget to see these positive things when media (who has an interest in reporting sensation because of money... and therefor make people anxious and depressed, but media really don't care about this toxic media-legacy...) only report bad things. Positive things are thère.

      Manukahoney in the same interview she said she had never considered running because of this, then went on to say that watching Donald Trump she was thinking "oh".
      Political experience is obviously good, but if there's a situation where someone without it is going to win, I think Oprah's the person we want!
      If she was elected she'd undoubtedly surround herself with politically experienced & smart people & actually listen to their advice, while still having the confidence & skills to lead the team she'd assembled for the purpose of improving America & the lives of all the American people (then once she'd done that & raised the credibility & respect of America globally to new heights, then she'd move on to world peace :))

    If this is deep for you, you are swimming in the shallow end of the pool :) To me she seems quite attached to her public image, fame and fortune, and those are not the characteristics of a developed spiritual teacher. It ultimately seems to revolve around her and the wealth she's accumulated, even though her message has a spiritual vibe to it and she has been able to help people if I've understood correctly. Eckhart Tolle's been doing a lot of stuff with her but in one of his interviews he pointed out that there's a lot that Oprah is not willing to let go of. A cunning business woman and a seeker of knowledge for sure, but if she wants to move forward on her spiritual path there's a lot of letting go to do.
    The whole thing is like collecting signposts from different spiritual and cultural traditions but never really taking the time to implement any of them fully, playing around with appealing concepts like 'letting go' but not really letting go of anything. It doesn't really work that way. At some point you have to stop trotting around and start doing the 'dirty work' within yourself - you already have the knowledge you need, and you don't have to lift self-professed and self-possessed gurus on pedestals to develop yourself.
    Overall it's interesting how people are revered and listened to based on their capacity to accumulate wealth. I think it's more interesting to listen to those who have left that behind in search for something more meaningful. We have a lot of people like that these days, very wise people, whom you might meet on RUclips by chance.. Success driven ego figures like Oprah, basking in the public eye for whatever reason, just aren't that interesting anymore.

    Great advice... It is just sooo necessary for us to keep that in mind.. It might be the world way better thinking this way.. in times there's so fake fellings and sharings..

    Oprah, here is how your show touched me. Because of your show I went back to school. One of your guest went back to school, to get her GED. This guest if memory serves was in her mid 70's maybe even older. Because of that show I too went back to school got my GED and went on to take some college courses in turn I was able to advance in my professional life. Many thank you's to you and this guest who shared her story.

    People act superior to boost their self esteem. If people have more empathy and try and understand people the world would be nicer. It's ego and all the grabbing what can you do for me is why people are unkind.

    so true about what is legacy...there is no way to know all we've done. for someone public like OPRAH she can have no idea what are the full effects of things she has presented on her shows etc. i'd like to meet her someday just to tell her & thank her what she did for me. :)
