3 Best Weapons Against An Alien Invasion

It could happen today. It could happen tomorrow. It could happen 100 years after our generation. If we don’t prepare for it, we will be exterminated from the planet. Do we want to leave our planet open for alien destruction? If not, I have three weapons that can be used against the alien invasion.

Giants

No, we’re not referring to the giants from Jack and the Beanstalk. We’re talking about the giants from Pacific Rim. But the difference between the Pacific Rim Jaegers and our robots, is that we don’t have to limit ourselves to rocket powered punches, explosives, and blades. Why, we can use deadly acids, nuclear weapons, and even biological weapons. I’m sure the giant robots we will be making can shoot missiles out of their chests and knock out an entire alien fleet.

Quantum Teleportation

You know, quantum mechanics has gone to point where they are considering teleporting people from one place to another. If this technology does become real, we will have a weapon of our own. Imagine one person against a fleet of aliens. All he or she has to do is teleport around each alien and destroy them one by one. The aliens can’t hit our one person army, but our one person army can annihilate an entire battalion.

Music Fest

Have we ever consider the possibility that the alien soldiers are tired of invading other planets? Maybe they just want to go home to their families. In other words, they are demoralized. Why not demoralize them even more with music? They’ll be shaking their bodies so much they’ll forget about invading Earth.

Keep these possibilities in mind in case an alien invasion occurs. Share these ideas with friends and families, and see what they will use to defend themselves against invaders.

The Biggest Mistake With Eating Ice Cream

“That kid is so smart.”

“I wish I had an iPhone! I want one myself.”

“Look at that guy. He owns several houses and some of the sickest cars in the world.”

It’s definitely disappointing when we see someone else with something we want. What makes us more upset is that we will never get our hands on it. How we wish we could be like them.

I would like to shed a different perspective on things. So, you think that person you envy lives an awesome life?

Let’s say you are poor. You see somebody who’s wealthy. They eat ice cream every day. Saliva drools from your mouth. If only you could have one bite of that vanilla ice cream. If only they would let you lick their chocolate sundae.

Want to know something? I’m a rich man. I will buy you a lifetime’s supply of ice cream. Sounds good? Alright. Here’s a mint chocolate ice cream cone.

You devour the cone in a minute. Want another one? Sure, here you go. You devour this one in less than a minute. You know what, I know you love ice cream. Look behind me. Here is a truck full of ice cream. Dig in!

After about a day, you sit in the empty truck with the empty ice cream containers. But I know you love ice cream. Here is another truck full of ice cream. What? You don’t want ice cream anymore? You feel terrible? You have cavities? Nonsense. C’mon! Just one more truckload of ice cream. You’re living like that kid who you envied a day ago. Isn’t this what you wanted?

Never assume someone lives an awesome life on the basis on the pleasure they derive of materialism. As George Bernard Shaw once stated, “The man with the toothache thinks everyone happy whose teeth are sound. The poverty stricken man makes the same mistake about the rich man.”

Why Your Life 'Ain't So Bad'

We all have had times where we tell ourselves “Why me!” or “I don’t want to do this!” I understand that we don’t have time to do other things or we simply hate doing what we’re asked. I hate doing chores. But do you know what motivates me to do them even when I hate it? I overcame this by asking myself three simple questions.

“How does cleaning the washroom sound to you?”

The question I most fear coming from my mom. There are germs and creepy little things crawling the washroom. Now that I think of it, my chores include washing the dishes, doing laundry, and vacuuming. These ain’t so bad compared to cleaning the toilet. I don’t want to deal with Mr. Clean and the toilet plunger.

“Would you rather become too poor to afford food?”

I can’t possibly imagine myself go hungry. And that’s great! Thinking of this statement made me realize how fortunate I am to live in a country where I’m well fed. The least I could do to alleviate the burden on my parents is to do some chores. Chores ain’t that bad when I compare it to the possibility of being too poor to afford food.”

“Are you really suffering as badly as war-torn countries?”

Chores ain’t near the level of badness of war. Think of it this way: there are millions of people who are dying and suffering from war. The suffering and pain I get from chores is nowhere near the level of war-torn countries. Again, my chores ain’t so bad.
Whenever you tell yourself “Why me!” or “I don’t want to do this!” ask yourself the three simple questions. That will allow you to see how little your problem is compare to other things. Hopefully, you can motivate yourself and others to do their work.
What questions do you ask yourself to motivate yourself to do work?
