| Post subject: | Aaron Scott: The Top 1% (Are You In It?) |
| With the exception of Dave Dorsey, I don't know of anyone on this board that is in the top 1% when it comes to income.BUT...But I wonder if you might be in the top 1% in some other area? I know musicians that are absolutely in the ranks of the elite in their instrument.NBF is in the top 1% of people who lack the common sense to tie their shoes and/or NOT support the Gators. But seriously, if you were to take inventory of the abilities you DO have, whatever they may be, have you considered that you may be in the Top 1% (or at least the top 5% or 10%) of those who also can do whatever it is you do.There are things that having all the money in the world won't buy you. You can't buy your way to running the fastest mile in history...or writing the best book...or certainly not being the best worshiper. Wouldn't it be something if we all were in the Top 1% of worshipers? Or spiritual development? You get the idea. |

| Y'know Aaron - just when I think you can't possibly post something dumber than you did on your previous post - you go and do something like this - and totally redeem yourself.Well done.Yes - it's true. NBF is in the top 1% of all people. It's all true |

| We're all in the top 1% of something, that's for sure. I'm in the top 1% of people who actively administrate Acts on every single performance metric. Not that I'm trying to brag or anything. |

| But as for your post - there are many traits that I try to be in the top 1%.I don't have a specific one - but there are numerous fruit of the spirit that I try to help grow in my life.Not sure if I have succeeded - in fact, I feel I have failed miserably at times - but I believe am a better man for trying |

| Post subject: | Aaron Scott: I'm in the Top 1% in Humility... |
| In fact, my humility is so awesome, that I'm almost certainly in the top .00001%.I can't think of ANYONE--with the POSSIBLE exception of Moses--that is more humble than I.I don't know if it's just an innate ability or due to working harder to be humble than anyone else.When I sense pride trying to rear its ugly head, I just remind myself of my incredible record of humbleness and say, I don't want to blow the greatest record-setting humility streak in virtually all of human history. And that causes me to get back in the saddle of humility.If humility was judged by horse racing, I'd be riding Secretariat. |

| Amen brother, I believe it! My family puts me in the top 1% of old men who turn the wrong way. I am was known as wrong-way-jack then graduated to u-turn-jack. Texas allows me to be U-turn Jack, even with the coach and car in-tow. Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/ |

| 0.5% of Americans have completed a marathon. I have completed 2. Chicago in 2011 and Boston this year. I guess that’s mine. |

| That is definitely an accomplishment that you can be rightly proud of. One more marathon, and you'll likely be in the top .01% Writing a book--you and Cojak have that corner on the market too. |
