INDIVIDUAL INVOLVMENT

If I Continue To Blame My Enemies
For My Present Predicament
And They Continue To Block
My Access To Equal Opportunities
Then I Must Change My Relationship
To The Forces That I Face

If I Have Been Unable To Excel
At The Tasks I Have Undertaken
Then I Must Exchange My Unwieldy Ways
For A New Set Of Strategies
That Are More Compatible With My Plans

Anytime Individual Efforts
Are Assailed As Irrelevant
To The Human Desire For Prosperity
By The Civil Rights Charlatans
In The War To Win Equality
The Growth Of Personal Initiative
Is Likely To Lose Its Appeal
To The Large Mass Of People
Who Are Slavish In Their Deportment

With A Vested Interest
In Maintaining Their Misery
Some Self-Described Victims Of Society’s Vices
Who Like To Feel Sorry For Themselves
Seem To Enjoy Their Low Spiritual Status
As The Objects Of Oppression

Instead Of Seeking The Training They Need
To Appropriately Arm Themselves
Against The Evils Of Unfairness
In A World Ruled By Unprincipled People
Constant Complainers And The Ill-Advised
Look To Their Enslavers For Liberation
From Their Own Destructive Deeds

The Advocates Of Entitlements
Who Are Unwilling To Fight For Their Freedom
Believe That Begging Can Provide Better Benefits
Than Mental Discipline And Smart Work
Required To Live The Good Life

Opportunities Are Always Out Of Reach
For People Who Are Ill-Equipped
To Appreciate Or Understand
The Importance Of Individual Involvement
To Their Personal Quest For Success
