1. Aspire to inspire before you expire before you expire ! To reflect …and Act. The difference between poor countries and rich ones, is not the age of the country. is not the age of the country.

2. This can be illustrated by countries like India & Egypt. Both are over 2000 years old, have rich ancient history and civilization, …and yet both are now poor.

3. On the other hand, Canada, Australia & New Zealand, only 150 years old, underdeveloped and no history. Today, they are highly-developed rich countries.

4. The distinction between poor & rich countries does not lie in available natural resources.

5. Japan has a limited territory; 80% mountainous, inadequate for agriculture & cattle raising, but it is the second world economy. The country is like an immense floating factory, importing raw material from the whole world and exporting manufactured products.

6. Another example is Switzerland, which does not plant cocoa but has the best chocolate in the world. Although it’s a little territory, they raise animals and plant their fields during 4 months per year. during 4 months per year. Not enough, they produce dairy products of the best quality. This small country transmits an image of security, order & labor, and is made the world’s secure safe.

7. Executives from rich countries, in touch with their counterparts in poor countries, show that there is no significant intellectual difference.

8. R ace or color of skin are not important: Immigrants labeled lazy in their countries of origin are the productive power in rich European countries. are the productive power in rich European countries.

9. What is then the difference?

10. The difference is the Attitude of the people, embraced along the years by the education & culture.

11. On analyzing their behavior, the great majority of both people in rich & developed countries, pursue the same basic principles in life:

12. 1.Ethics, as a basic principle 2.Discipline -Respect Law & Order 3.Integrity 4.Responsibility 5.Respect of the rights of other individuals 6.Work-loving 7.Strive for saving & investment 8.Punctuality

13. In poor countries, only a minority follow those basic principles in their daily life.

14. We are not poor because we lack natural resources or because nature was cruel to us,

15. We are poor because we lack Attitude, and the Will to comply with. Our New generation should learn those functional principles, to enrich & develop our societies.

16. If you do not forward this message, nothing will happen to you. Your pet will not die, you will not be fired, you will not have bad luck for seven years, nor will you get sick.

17. If you love your country, let this message circulate to as many people to help them reflect about the CHANGE. PLEASE ACT.. INSPIRE !!
