Invest or Wine test...

There once was a man that was full of confidence. He never had a doubt, well maybe one, but he always knew what was going on and if he could conceive it and believe it then the mind could achieve it.

Without giving this much thought he knows like everyman does that girls like attention. Without feeling excitement for being around the man she will develop boredom. She will not want to see him again because the wonderful attention is gone.

This gentleman liked the fact that a certain girl wanted attention. He didn't really care how he looked trying to win her over, but his attraction to her was strong. Maybe people do not understand what I am trying to say, but he still doesn't mind looking dumb trying to gain her trust; he has become vulnerable to win her over. He wasn't and still is not going to beat around the bush or play the game a different way, but he is going to make an investment.

Here is were we think, without thinking...

Girls and Guys are in the similar realm of living. Half the time, for a guy, the girl doesn't even call him back. He makes the statement along the lines, "there is no way she wants to hang out", but just when that happens he receives a message "hold on tight because soon we will be flying". He tries hard not to give in and call before the time is right because like all fairy tales this happens; the man always rushes in right away to make the call, but this man decides to not call because "soon we will be talking" is ringing in his head. He still walks into the arena with his head tall looking to gain an edge on the situation; he takes a risk, a chance at hanging in there.

These risks are similar to the stock market. Investing money and time into a particular company. Neglecting all other inquires to get something exciting, adventurous and hopefully will hold onto the owner of the bid. Sometimes though the investment decides to take a fall. Everyone is saying "hold on tight", but maybe he is not investing in the right stock. Do NOT buy more crappy stock little man in something that is not going to give more money back. Buying into a bad investment for this man just puts him in a losing situation that is not good.

This young man will "Seize the Opportunity" by not giving into the lack of investment. He tries and tries, but this time he gets up, dusts himself off, and walks out the door in hopes of buying something more. That is what everyone think, "[he] walks out the door", but instead of walking out the door, he tries to get back on the bull even if the bear is tearing him down.

He says to himself do not give in, never, but do not invest a third time into someone or some stock that is sucking the life out.

Maybe this wasn't clear enough...

Imagine a thing of wine, a whole barrel of wine for that matter and the girl takes a sip. Boy does that taste good, she says to herself "that was some good wine", but she forgets how good that wine really was. She leaves for a long time not even thinking about taking another drink. The wine doesn't know how good it is, but knows the labor put into squeezing the juices out of the grapes, alcohol, and all other ingredients placed in for the making. There is a lot of effort put into making a good wine. Forget the conversation because leaving the barrel open, the wine exposed, to let the girl drink some more without knowing when she will be back is going to waste, spoil or just let rats, cats and some other rodent try some of this 1984 bottle.

The girl will forget what wine she tried, and will not want to work to find the right barrel, open the barrel and drink some wine. She might have to go through a bunch of barrels to find what she needs, and if that is too much work then it was worth closing the barrel to let preserve what is left . This closing of the barrel needs to happen because without doing so will spoil the freshness, the taste, the smooth comfort that she will want to wrap her arms around. He must take the risk, but he will not invest into throwing something good away. If he wants to throw money away he will do so by no putting his heart into the arena, but this man will keep the heart fresh, and bring what is right into the arena to fight the battle.

He might have confidence that something is better out there, but without confidence what would he be?

A Loser.
