There is a “Secret Club” in this world that every person who has passed this lesson is part of. And either you know what I am talking about and you are in this Club, or you are not. 

This Club is the Secret Club of “I Learned the First Lesson of Life” Club.

When you learn this lesson, you are an “Esoteric of Life” where Abundance is everywhere, Everything is in vast supply, and you understand what life is all about. 

You “Get” it. 

And if you have not learned “the First Lesson of Life,” then you are waiting for someone to save you. You are angry at the world because “no one is helping you” and you are sitting in the mud, screaming at to others to help, while you sit in the mud.

“Screaming at others who are working while you sit in the mud not working, then hating others for not helping you while you sit in the mud is the lesson.”

The Lesson is “Stand Up, Problem Solve Your Own Problems, and Do Your Work.”

The “Work” is “Problem Solve Your Own Problems” and Do The Math To Solve Them.”

There is no other way. 

If you don’t learn this, then you will always be begging on the outside. 

And getting angry because “no one will help you” is the point. We can’t help you when the Lesson is “Stand Up, Problem Solve Your Own Problems, and Do Your Work.”

Now, the Resources are there. And the Resources are aplenty. In fact, for most people, the Resources are inside the Building that you are leaning against, begging in front of. But you won’t go INSIDE the Building… Because then you would have to learn.

And Learning is The Work.

Learning is the Only Work you have to do.

If you feel like no one is helping you or everyone has turned against you…

If you feel like everyone is fighting you, then this is the Hard Core Truth of which Lesson you have to Learn : The First Lesson of Life.

The First Lesson of Life is a lesson that has to be learned by everyone. And either you have learned this or you have not.

The world is divided into two groups of people : 

Either you have Learned the First Lesson of Life, and you have risen above the Challenge. You are part of the Secret Club of the First Lesson of Life.

Or you haven’t learned it, and you’re still waiting for someone to come save you and help… While the world falls down around you. 

You have one Lesson to learn. 

No one is coming.

Read The 6 Pillars of Self-Esteem by Dr. Nathaniel Branden. No one is coming.

This is Tough Love. 

Helping people is Toxic. And those who have learned the First Lesson of Life, will not “help others,” which is code for “Save me because I won’t save myself!”

If I save you, then you will never learn to save yourself. That isn’t helping you. It’s enabling you.

Those who have not learned the First Lesson of Life are waiting to be saved and are getting angry that no one is “saving” them… enabling them. 

The Lesson is “Learn.” 

There is no other way. 

You will not get anything if you do not Learn. 

Refuse to Learn, then what you’re really looking for is Handouts. Which means you will take and take… and never become more than a Beggar. You are not crippled. You only think you are. And there is a big difference. 

If you are on the Consumer side of this Lesson, then you must learn how to save yourself, and the only way to do that is to Learn. 

There is a moment — right here at this point — where you “wake up” and you realize, “Oh! The Purpose IS to learn to TRAIN to DO, so I CAN DO… to stand and Self-Rely, so you CAN empower the Self and thus, empower others.” 

And if you do not do this, then nothing will change. 

Then those who “help” you, will have to keep helping you… over and over and over… and nothing will ever change for you. You’ll take down everyone around you while you sink.

The First Lesson of Life is save yourself.
