Imagine That Your Friends Father Is Going To Visit: Fill & Download for Free

I would have gone for Trump or Putin or Xi Jinping or Narendra Modi. But actually, it is this guy, a millennial with a big black olive on his head, who rules Saudi Arabia.The crown prince of Saudi Arabia, Mohammad Bin Salman Al Saud known as MBS son of King Salman of Saudi Arabia.57 years Crown Prince Muhammad Bin Nayef was forced to give up his rightful heir to his cousin MBS, who’s half of his age, for obvious reasons.Now, I have several reasons for my arguments, as follows,He is going to be the youngest King of Saudi Arabia. He’s 33 years old. His father is already 83 years old, so probably in next 5–6 years, he will be officially King of Saudi. Think of a time period that he is going to rule the Saudi, which is equivalent to the whole the Middle East, as Saudi is most powerful there. He will rule for at least 40–45 years!!He is going to have the control of most Oil reserves, which will be in demand for the next 15 years at least. Having huge oil reserves, he can bully major superpowers like the US or the EU. Also, he has been successful in bullying enemies within the middle east like Yemen & Iran.He took over power so swiftly and he takes the decision so individually and swiftly that in Saudi, everyone calls him Mr.Everything!Because there is a strong rivalry between Iran and Saudi (Shia Vs Sunni) he has even made friends with the US. Also, the US buys a lot of crude from Saudi making them allies.He has sent thousands of member of his royal family to jail on corruption charges. Imagine his power at such a young age! He wants to set his dominance in the royal family and he’s successful in it.He portrays himself as a financial responsible anti-corruption leader. But look at his recent purchases, you will see the ironyHe bought $300 million worth home in France.He spent 1/2 a billion dollar on ‘Salvator Mundi’, painting by Leonardo Da Vinci.But he is not fool either, just when he came to power. He has changed many social rules in the kingdom after understanding how gender equality is going to be a big thing in the future likeAllowing women to driveWomen can attend sports/Public eventsSaudi is actually run by 2 pillars. The royal family and hardcore Islamic clerics. Clerics allow Royal family to run the kingdom in exchange of enforcing their uncompromising version of Islam. It is this balance between these two pillars that kept Saudi stable for years. In fact, Saudi could remain very stable during Arab Spring time, please re-read this, Arab spring was very adverse time for all Islamic countries. But MBS dared to arrest many hardcore clerics who opposed him or his actions. Which shows how powerful he is.He has understood the fact that Oil is going to be important only for the next 10–15 years. It would be disastrous for Saudi’s economy if they completely rely on Oil, just like Venezuela. He is, in fact, graduate in Law, which is not common for monarchs. When the price of Oil decreased in 2016 the IMF warned Saudi Arabia that it will go bankrupt by 2020 if they keep on spending as they do. But this man decided to end this ‘Oil Addiction’. He has made vision 2030 for Saudi which includesPrivatization in some sectorsHuge investment in Renewable energyMaking Saudi a tourist place.Allowing public entertainment like concerts and cinemas.Making his state similar to Silicon Valley, encouraging Entrepreneurship.Becoming first country to give citizenship to a Robot, Sofia.He is so well in diplomacy that he managed to visit Pakistan as well as India during his Asia tour, amongst this high tension time after Pulwama tragedy. Giving $20 billion to Pakistan and $100 billion investment in India.11. And of course, how can one ignore this event which captured whole world’s attention. Look at President Trump's face though. He managed to have a close friendship with both the US and Russia, which is a big thing.12. And now let me tell you about one of the most barbaric acts in the history of Humanity, it is of this gentleman, Jamal Khashoggi.He is so powerful that on his(MBS') order, Jamal Khashoggi’s body was cut into parts and then liquidated before disposal. The whole world knows that Jamal entered the embassy in Turkey and never came out. The irony is that even world powers like the US and all EU countries are not talking about it,This is the power of OILUndoubtedly he is going to face a lot of problems, but after observing his power, intelligence, and futuristic vision, he is going to be one of the most powerful leaders in coming future if not 2019.Trump, Xi Jinping, Putin, Narendra Modi, all of these gentlemen will either come out of the power or will die eventually. But MBS will continue to rule for the next 40–45 years! Compare this with the reign of Chancellor Angela Merkel, she has been in power for almost 14 years, and how she changed Germany’s economy so well! Imagine what power he will have!This was my analysis of a possible powerful leader in the future, what are your views?Liked what you read?

That you're alone on this Earth.When I was 23 years old, I graduated college, worked for my father for about a year and then packed up my car and moved roughly 1,000 miles away from Chicago to Boston.I had never visited Boston before. I was going to move in with a friend of mine, try to find a job and ultimately build a life for myself.My father opted to help me with the drive. We spent 2 days on the road together. We talked about a bunch of stuff:Stories I had from college.Stories he had from his youth.Stories of his victories.Stories of his failures.How proud he was of me.One piece of advice he bestowed upon me has clear-as-day stayed with me now eight years later:“You're alone on this Earth. You have me and your mother. We will be here for you more so than anyone. You then have your brother and sister. You will probably find a life partner. You will have the illusion that they are with you and that your close friends are with you. The truth of the matter is you are the only one in that head of yours. You have to determine what you want and who you want to be. Only you.” -My Father.At first, it seemed like the most depressing thing I had ever heard.I couldn't imagine this guy, the guy I hold above all other people in my life, saying that.The guy who I aspire to build my character to mirror.The guy that gave me everything I wanted as a child.The guy that loved his family unconditionally could say something like this.I thought to myself, he's lying. I have friends that will be there for me thick and thin. I have a network of people that support me and care for me.He's wrong.I meditated on his advice for a few days.What he was talking about began to marinate. I knew exactly what he was talking about.It was the most liberating thing I had ever heard:"I am alone.”I felt free in that moment. No one but me was going to be living in this head for the rest of my life.No one was going to follow what truly makes me happy, but me.No one was going to challenge myself hard enough to learn what I wanted to learn, but me.No one was going to put myself out there to share love with a woman, but me.No one was going to be hurt by women in my life and have the opportunity to learn from those scars quite like me.No one was going to go into an interview in my place in order to secure employment, like me.No one was going to get fired (like I ultimately did) and learn from that experience, like me.I was alone. This is my life. No one else's.I was free to be me.I have never forgotten what my father said that day and I never will. When I feel down, I know that I am the sole catalyst in getting myself “back.” When I want to learn something I know that it’s within my power to get out and learn it. When I want to write and create, I know that I have no one else that will do the work for me.I work on myself and live my life so I can help build the community around me.You're the only person that is going to be in that head.Every night before you go to sleep—just before you settle off into the dream-state.Every morning when you wake up. Just before you enter the world to meet its demands.It's you.You're alone.What are you going to do with that freedom?

I'm going to give you an unpopular answer, and it may be “wrong,” but I'm sticking by it.I believe too many adults treat children as if they're not people with faculties of their own. Kids are complete human beings who see, hear, and know much more than adults give them credit for. They deserve the truth as much as we do. Without it, they become prisoners of ignorance.To those who disagree: would you tell your children that their father is an alcoholic, is dying of cancer, or has asperger's? I would. The alternative is to leave your child in a haze of confusion and shame they may never recover from.On the one hand, not everyone who cheats, lies, or behaves cruelly is a narcissist. Just like not everyone who drinks is an alcoholic, not everyone with cancer is dying, and not everyone who is socially awkward has asperger's. If their father is a jerk with narcissistic tendencies, or just a flawed person you resent, then telling your children he's a narcissist is morally wrong, selfish, and abusive.On the other hand, if you've done tons of research, reading, counseling, soul-searching, and memory re-processing, and you've finally faced the horrible truth, then you owe it to your kids to give them the tools they need to cope. To let them “figure it out” is self-serving. It leaves you free from any fallout but sacrifices them to their father's ongoing manipulation and abuse.It took me 17 years of a slow-torture marriage, a passing comment from my neighbor (“he sounds like a narcissist”), and another 2 years of research and counseling, to come to the truth about my ex. The cognitive dissonance was surreal. I felt like I was literally going crazy because I had to piece together an entirely new reality for myself.Was your journey similar to mine? Did you take the blame for the narcissist's wrongs, suffer through years of gaslighting, and lose your self-worth completely? Did it take years to find joy in life again?Imagine what a child would have to do to come to the truth on her own, especially after she's been programmed by the narcissist since birth. Then imagine what kind of mental mutations she would have to undergo in order to cope with her new reality.Think what you would have done differently if you had known about his disorder - and how to deal with it - from the start? How immensely would that have changed your life? And why would you not give that gift of truth - and the freedom that goes with it - to your children? Because books, friends, and family say it's wrong? How much do they really understand the nightmare your children now face?Besides, the truth doesn't necessitate “bashing" their father. You don't have to be mean or offer up all the sordid details. Just let them know that he has a kind of brain sickness that makes him behave badly.Some examples:Sometimes your dad blames people for things they haven't done or tells you things that didn't happen. If he does this to you, it's because his brain confuses what's true and what's not. Trust your own brain because it knows what the truth is, even if his doesn't.Sometimes your dad gets very angry all of a sudden, says mean things, or won't talk to you. He will do this even if you haven't done anything wrong. When he does, it's because he suddenly feels ashamed of himself for no reason. Remember that his anger is not your fault.Your dad's sickness sometimes makes him act selfishly because his brain thinks that everyone feels the way he does. So, if he doesn't call or visit, forgets about your games, or does something that makes you sad, it's not your fault. It's because if he doesn't feel sad, then he thinks you don't feel sad.Your dad may expect too much from you, like wanting you to take care of him, but that's not your job and you don't have to worry about him or his feelings. It's his job to worry about you and your feelings, even if he's not so good at it.Your dad may tell you something - or just give you a look - that will make you feel bad about yourself. It's not about you. His sickness makes him think silly little things you do or say are worse than they really are. If he does this, remember that his brain exaggerates others’ mistakes and ignores their good qualities.Your dad's brain also makes him feel very jealous of others, so if you do something really awesome, he may put it down or ignore you. Know that he does this because he wishes he was getting lots of attention for doing something awesome. No matter what, stay proud of yourself.It makes your dad feel good about himself to make lots of promises, and he wishes he could do the things he says he will. If he makes promises to you, like taking you to Disneyworld or buying you a pony, understand that they are just wishes. They will only come true in his imagination.Obviously, if your children are older, you can be more direct and sophisticated. As long as you're not denigrating their father but just explaining his mental disorder, you're not being abusive to your kids. In fact, you're saving them from being damaged by his abuse and giving them some good coping tools.
