Skills get the job done

One of my favorite shows of all times is M*A*S*H*. It is a comedy that poked fun at war. The show lasted longer than the Korean conflict which it was supposedly about. On more than one occasion those whacky Doctors would dress up. Hawkey would become Groucho Marx. Everybody wants to know that the doctor which is to do their surgery has training and skills before he presents himself with a scalpel over them. Most people would not go looking for a doctor that was a comedian or plumber yesterday and decided to be a doctor last night. Everyone knows

Character, good character, is a must if a person expects to have wealth. To continue to make great sums of income and have people continue to work with them. Many were taught from childhood that to have great sums of money was a sure sign of poor character but that is exactly wrong, an outright lie; people that are poor can and many times have less character and integrity than those who are wealthy. Wealthy is also a state of mind because if we allow ourselves to continue thinking wealth breeds poor character we will cause ourselves to remain penniless in order to keep our "good character".  We have been taught that it is harder for a person who is wealthy to remain honest and “clean” than for the wealthy and we have believed it. It is as though our belief about character predetermines our prejudice about success and wealth, putting us into a mode of self preservation that forces us to fail in regards to wealth and income or anything which would bring them into our lives.
