the Book of Stories

Those who have been successful in life throughout history first put themselves beyond the possibility of defeat, and then waited for an opportunity of winning the goal they seek...

The Book of Stories...

The Book of Stories and the importance of Story telling;  provides the fundamental philosophies from which we can base our dreams, hopes, desires and moral lessons. Through these stories that are a lens and focus point by which we pass on inter-generational life lessons, beliefs and hopes we provide harmony, stability and direction for human life which on a macro level is provided by libraries, schools and universities but most importantly need to be told by grandparents to grandchildren.

Family and cultural togetherness the unity of clan and tribal purpose are some of the most important foundations of a fulfilling and complete life... these factors are important to individual wellness... and balance the blindness of so called legal systems, the unbridled power of government institutes and the even more powerful faceless arrogance of corporations.    

The connection between generations are one of the most important supports for the continued maintenance of life, learning and memory.  When seeking long-term cultural well-being in Maori and Polynesian tradition the well-being of the overall Waka (canoe) and it's journey is paramount...  whether you are aiming to leverage your career, help your children or support the greater family... human success is based on individual, family success.

To secure ourselves against failure lies in our own hands,
but the opportunity of winning the struggle is provided by life itself. 

Thus a successful person can secure oneself against failure but cannot be certain of success.  Hence the saying: One may know how to be successful without being able to do it.
