Helping You Over The Mountains of Life

 

Sometimes saying it short is best.

 

From the TV to the radio we have constant talk but is much really being said?

If you think back on your life, the really important things were one or two sentences.

“You did a great job!” is better than a whole volume of words talking about the job.

 

The average person watches over 5 hours of TV daily.

Listens to the radio in the car.

Is exposed to an average of 2,000 ads per day.

Etc…

 

The average man spends less than 5 minutes per day focused on his kids.

 

Were are getting too verbose:

 

** Pythagorean theorem: ............................. 24 words.

** Lord's prayer: ................................... 66 words.

** Archimedes' Principle: ........................... 67 words.

** 10 Commandments: ................................. 179 words.

** Gettysburg address: .............................. 286 words.

** Declaration of Independence: ..................... 1,300 words.

** US Government regulations on the sale of cabbage: . 26,911 words.
