hi jeremy, it’s totally awesome to read what has been expressed by all on the mapping of ant phylosophy in our way we enjoy our life. In fact this idea of ant came up during a serious discussion on lifestyle with a cousin at the Ivato Airport of Madagascar. I am in the mobile telecoms field for the past 18 years and now working for Telma Mobile since Apr09. i have had the change to embrace different cultures in my career and i have observed the extremes, so far the successful ones, including myself, if i may say so, had a reflection of the Ants Attitude.. Restless, Enjoy life and always thinking about what is next… thanks for this valueable piece of work.. keep it up..

Hi Therese, thanks for those comments. I’d be curious to see one of those big ants. I was impressed with your videos. You have an energy of goodness about you and it’s great to have connected with you.

Hello Jeremy, First time. And I love it. I always enjoyed Jim Rohn’s work and loved “ant’s philosophy”. I lived in Philippines most of my life and I truly enjoyed watching ants and playing with them. They were BIG ones!!! :))
I would follow their path and just watch in full amazement their very being. I am still inspired and happy everytime I see ant trails. It brings me back my childhood. How precious and beautiful it was having ants in little corner onto my front porch. Thank You Jeremy for being YOU!:)) Keep up the GREAT work

Hi Travis – it is interesting isn’t it? The annoying little buggers have so much to teach us – and that’s just an insect :)

You make really good points here, about sitting and taking time to observe that which is around. The opportunities for learning are endless. Thanks for stopping by :)

Very interesting… admittedly I thought post was going to be about working as a team (since ants are so keen on that as well) but I was surprised (in a good way) when you talked about how dedicated they are.

It’s actually pretty interesting when you think about it — how ants, creatures that a lot of people consider to be a nuisance and non-intelligent, can actually teach us so many different things. I think when we take the time to sit back and observe those kinds of things, we realize that there are lessons to be learned all around us, we just have to open up our eyes to them.

PS: I like your writing style

Hey Sam. Definitely agree on the sports there. And everybody should run a marathon too! I found out a lot about myself in the one I did a few years ago – especially that last 8 miles :)

Thanks for stopping by!

Love the ant philosophy and never quitting! That's why everybody should play sports. When your body just can't take it anymore, your mind wills you forward and you gain that second wind and play through the pain! .-= Financial Samurai´s last blog ..Insuring The Uninsured Is Worth It =-.

Hi Kim – you are awesome – “Make your life so fulfilling that you don’t need a vacation” What a cool statement. It’s so true. Most vacations are to get away from life. But if you love what you are doing, then a vacation is not so much a getaway, but a chance to change scenery and add variety.

Learning and implementing. That sounds pretty close to the mode I am in. I appreciate your comments Kim!

Hi Jeremy,

I read this earlier and was trying to remember a quote that resonated with your statement, ‘… if your primary philosophy is getting to weekends and taking vacations, then you can’t really expect to make headway…’ I couldn’t find it so I’ll paraphrase, ‘Make your life so fulfilling that you don’t need a vacation.’

Success definitely involves persistence and consistency. It would be wonderful if it involved passion and purpose.

My current form of harvesting and preparing is learning and implementing. It’s a productive space to be in.

I enjoyed your commentary :)
