We live in an era where latter day hippies are infecting our young with a new book and DVD called “The Secret”. It teaches visualizing and goal setting! Can you imagine people actually setting goals? Especially those who are not of the upper class? Most of us know that Bill Clinton dared to picture himself being one day as the President of the United States. He even had a picture of himself taken as a High School student with then President Kennedy. He then pictured in his mind, using the very same wicked technique taught in the book and DVD called “The Secret” that he would one day be President. While the book is new the theory is based on the wicked technique of “goal setting” and wanting to make something of your life!
What is worse is that Bill Clinton’s college sweetheart who latter became his wife joined him in this. They engaged in PRE-MARITAL GOAL SETTING! How dare a person of “their class” first study abroad then actually set long term goals for themselves! How dare they have dreams!
This is the latest accusation against Hillary Clinton that the vicious die hard Republicans are leveling against her. Yet if she where one of their own who read Napoleon Hill, who idolized the robber barons of the 19th century, they would sing a different tune. Motivation books laud a study that was done of Harvard grads that said that the 5% who made clear cut long range goals prior to graduation, over the course of their lives, made more than the other 95% combined. Well tell me aren’t Hillary and Bill Clinton allowed to do the same?
All of us have had goals from our youth. God Bless Hillary Clinton for sticking to her goals! While Ann Cutler gets older and her skirt gets shorter, Hillary Clinton did not loose sight of family goals by divorce! Oh now they say she thought about it. Who wouldn’t after that ordeal? But she demonstrated FAMILY VALUES! Did these Republican entrepreneurial types ever hear of an NLP term called an “anchor”? Well both Hilary and Bill fell in love during an idealistic era! They both had dreams of political success and to make a difference! If those dreams helped them to “re-anchor” after the infidelity what is wrong with that?
Having a long term goal and calling that “evil” is the same Bull shit they leveled at Bill Clinton. How dare they have goals and at such a youthful age? How dare the goals of your youth be used to preserve your marriage! Well I say God Bless them both!
