Are you a Turtle?By: Jim Tudor ( Tudor Communications )
It seems like De Jevu all over again when someone asks Are you a Turtle? Recently I say a sign outside a local tavern-soliciting members for “ The Turtle Club” In the late 60’s The Turtle Club was very popular all across America. The Turtles were and are a loosely knit group of slow moving fun seekers. In order to be a member you had to be of clean mind and correctly answer a series of fun questions to receive an official membership card. Once you had the official card you were permitted to ask fellow Turtles in public places----Are you a Turtle? A true Turtle would then answer “ You bet your sweet ass I am” as all turtles were assumed to own a Jackass. If for some reason the fellow Turtle did not give the correct response he or she was obligated to buy you a drink of your choice ! Am I a Turtle?? You bet your sweet ass I am –a very snappy one at that !
Here’s De Jevu to you !

Know Thy Self
By: Jim Tudor
Just inside the entrance of one of the great pyramids carved in stone in letters three foot tall are the words "Know Thy Self" The message was of sacred value thousands of years ago and it is just as valuable today.It's de jevu all over again. Fashion, popular beliefs, and baubles to yearn for are in constant flux. However there are some things that never change. One of these things is human nature. It is human nature to want to be happy and successful. Happiness and success are both states of mind. If you seek happiness you will be successful when you achieve it. If you seek success, it is a much more difficult beast to capture, for it is always changing. Everyone has within them, the capacity to achieve both happiness and success. How do we do it?? First of all you must define what happiness and success are.. Then you must develop a time bound plan to achieve the tasks you have identified. Happiness and success are as unique to individuals as are our fingerprints. Take some time to sit down and write what happiness and success mean to you. You will be surprised at what you discover. Once you have identified what is really important to you, you will be well on your way to achieving both happiness and success. Know thyself and to thy self be true.
You can never truly satisfy anyone but you
