In Your Words What Is

What does it mean to be a man of your word?

Long before the common people were educated to read and write they had a barter system in which the spoken word was every bit as good as a written contract is today. Infact some would say that even a written contract holds little water in this millennium. If you spoke a promise hundreds of years ago and you neglected to keep it, you would be considered an oath breaker far and wide. Most news and gossip was verbally passed from mouth to mouth and did travel far enough to affect the lives of others so it was very important to keep your word.If politician's in the present time lived by this code of honor our world would be a different place.

In your own words, what is self-confidence?

My definition of self confidence is a belief in my ability to find a way…as opposed to be able to do.External confidence is not self confidence although they have a very similar and, often times, congruent relationship.Your external confidence can be high with things you are familiar with (driving, a sport, any skill etc).But what happens when you are thrown into a situation where you are not familiar? You can panic or be self confident that you have the ability to somehow someway find a way…Another thing, Self confidence is one aspect of self love. Another aspect is self worth.A lot of people do not feel deserving of a lot of things (love, good looking partner,) and they feel as if they have to earn things that life hands to them. They do not know how to celebrate themselves, just for being them, separate from any accomplishments.I struggle with my definition of self confidence because I am not entirely sure if self confidence and self worth are the same thing.. I suppose with high self worth one would automatically have a belief that one can find a way… But with high self confidence, I believe, one might not necessarily have high self worth.That’s the best definition I can come up with.

What does the phrase "your words have iron" or "your words have iron in them" mean?

Googling finds reference to the Clint Eastwood western "The Outlaw Josey Wales". But in the context I heard it may have been related to the concepts of "integrity" or "truth".

Please NO GUESSING! If you don't know don't answer. Please cite any sources or references. More detail is better.

Thanks!

Why is it important to value your own words?

Keepibg upto your words is a process of building trust and goodwill. If i promiss my parents, my family, my children, my friends, my debtors ….i started a hope in each one of them respectively. If i keep my words repeatedly, they will build a very great confidence and trust. It will be setting an example in their life to follow the same life style. It will be a happy happy situatin in our life. Keeping unavoidabke situations as exemptions, which do not happen every time.Ahujauncle

In your words, what does it mean to hustle and grind?

Not giving a shit about peer approval.Playing the game, not heckling from the stands.Optimizing your life around achieving what you want.Figuring out what your goal is, then working backwards to figure out the steps to get there, then executing like hell on those steps. Noah Kagan has a great example here on how he used this mentality to land a job he really wanted.Cutting your $ burn rate even when it gets to scary low levels.Not being slowed down by negative feedback.

In your words, what is a good summary of Mein Kampf?

MEIN KAMPF is the world’s longest political speech, set down in print. Hitler says right in the book that he felt it a necessary evil to write down his political ideas, since “great political movements are a product of the spoken word, not books or pamphlets.” Also, great political leaders must be flexible in tactics, and treating MEIN KAMPF as some sort of Bible of Nazism is wrong. National Socialism was defined by the fuhrer according to current events, not some manifesto set in stone.While reading MEIN KAMPF one must distinguish between “Hitler the political leader, Hitler the person and Hitler the destiny”, as the great German novelist Thomas Mann wrote in his classic essay, “Hitler, My Brother.” His political ideas are repulsive to most readers, yet Hitler the person is still the most extraordinary human being who ever lived and, as Mann insinuated, indispensable to understanding European history. No person in history combined an immense imagination with such stunning consequences in such a short amount of time. Hitler sees himself in MEIN KAMPF as a figure who will transform the world. A rare case, as he writes, “of the theorist and the politician being equally succesful.”Along with Machiavelli’s THE PRINCE, MEIN KAMPF is the ultimate guide on rising to power, whether in politics, the office, show business or any other endeavor. This is story of a man who, in just ten years (1913–1923), went from sleeping in flop houses alongside junkies to leading a mass political movement that threatened to take over the German state. Our author gives us tips on everything from how to outwit enemies to making the most of propaganda. Incidentally, Hitler does write, “The bigger the lie, the more likely people are to believe it”, but this passage is in regards to the Jews in the media, not to himself.Unlike THE COMMUNIST MANIFESTO, MEIN KAMPF did not outlive its creator, except in a few isolated corners of the world. Still, it is worth reading as a study of how the imagination, in this case a perverted imagination, can come to power through sheer will.
