A BROKEN CLOCK IS RIGHT TWICE A DAY. Isn’t that fantastic? Of all the important discoveries that have ever been discovered this is the one that outshines them all. Well, except gravity, because if they hadn’t discovered gravity, we’d all be floating around the room.

The Broken Clock. Does it chase the world? No, it sits and waits for the world to come to it, and it does it twice a day. And not only is it right twice a day, it’s consistent. Time zones. Daylight savings. Julian or Gregorian calendars or power failures. It’s bulletproof. Now, wouldn’t you like your life to be like that? How many times a day, every day, are you right absolutely and inarguably right? So here it is, plain and simple - don’t do anything. Relax. Trust the broken clock. Learn from its steadiness.

There are countless self-help products on the market. Online gurus. Influencers. Scammers. And poets. Watch out for the poets. Not to be trusted. They warm you up with some rhyming couplets and then confuse you by throwing some blank verse your way. None of these programs are any help because - and it’s right in the title - "self-help" – so you still must do the work. Let’s find a self-help system that does some of the heavy lifting.

Think about this. Dickens ’ Great Expectations. The main character, Pip, dreams of one day being a gentleman, of having money and status. It’s all he thinks about. However, when it does come to him, he’s disappointed because his patron, Abel Magwitch, is a convict from Australia. Now I’m not saying that convicts from Australia or convicts or even Australians in general are bad people and cannot help someone achieve their goals in life, that’s just how Dickens wrote it. Post a nasty comment on his social media. The point is, some people are never happy.

So be like that broken clock that's out in the garage that somebody one time said I bet I can fix that because it doesn’t need fixing. It sits there on that dusty shelf with the tennis rackets and all the other flotsam and jetsam of your life that you have stashed out there because, well, someday. Guess what? It’s some day. That clock was right twice today. And how many times were you right about anything today?

​

That is why I developed THE BROKEN CLOCK THEORY. And I want to share it with you.

Oh, and a quick fun fact to get you started - all this DIY craze started way back with self-serve gas stations. That’s right. When they got rid of the smiling guy who pumped your gas, checked your oil and talked your ear off about the weather, everything went downhill. If I wanted to pump gas, I would have dropped out of high school, grown out some Elvis sideburns and called everybody Chief.
