Subj: Opportunity only comes once in a lifetime always
Date: 4th of July, 2016: The Year of the Red Monkey
——
2016 is a great time to be alive, man, I cannot lie. I feel great and I hope you do too.
The air is electric right now and if you’re tuned in you can feel it.
It feels like, well, do you know that song TNT by the great rock n’ roll band AC/DC?
It goes like this: “I’m TNT, I’m dynamite. I’m TNT and I’ll win the fight“
That’s exactly how the world feels right now; The air feels like a lit TNT fuse — ALIVE and ready to explode like dyn-o-mite.
You won’t hear it on the local news station but if you were a reptile you could stick out your tongue and taste the electricity in the air.
According to the Chinese zodiac…
A particularly auspicious time for new inventions, the Year of the Red Fire Monkey is for taking risks and being rebellious, a year where agile, inventive minds, sheer guts and bravado will win out. Now is the time of courage, action, anarchy, and true devotion to even the wildest of schemes, a time to start new endeavors, for they are destined to succeed under Monkey’s influence.
You read the horoscope friends, now is the time to really be ALIVE. Who are we to argue with destiny?
It’s the year of the Red Monkey. Red is the color of action. I don’t argue with destiny so I moved from Thailand to California to be close to the action.
That’s exactly what you should do too. No, I don’t mean you need to move to California I mean you need to not argue with destiny.
You can disagree with horoscopes all you like but Uncle Vicstrodamus can see the future and this is what is in store:
2016 is a special year and you gotta be ready to get out there and go, go, go because this is no time to be slow!
The electricity in the air means it’s time to feel ALIVE.
They say opportunity comes but once in a lifetime but that is false. The average guy only takes advantage of opportunity once in a lifetime because he’s too busy jacking off and chilling out to care.
Opportunities are everywhere now. If you’re prepared, you’ll get yours. But you have to be fast and prepared to gobble up the opportunities.
This is no time for relaxation and this is no time for masturbation — it’s time for elation.
When you feel good you’re ready to act without hesitation. Fast, fast, fast the way it should be!
Maybe you don’t know TNT by AC/DC but everybody knows this song…
“I can see clearly now the rain is gone, I can see all obstacles in my way.”
Please allow Uncle Vic to once again look into his crystal ball and predict your destiny:
2016 is the year the rain goes away, allowing the TNT fuse to stay lit.
When the dynamite explodes it’s going to explode like a pinata filled with opportunities disguised as obstacles in your way.
The slow and lackadaisical will watch and complain about all the lack of opportunity and all the obstacles in their way.
The quick and the brave will see right through the farce and will scoop up the new opportunities at every chance.
This is exactly what you’re going to do…
You’re going to open your eyes and see that all the obstacles in your way are actually wonderful opportunities disguised as obstacles.
You don’t have a choice in the matter. Destiny has spoken and she’ll overcome your objections better than the best salesman ever could.
Destiny has demanded you prepare, rather than despair, because opportunities are ahead.
So don’t fight it, friend.
Ignite it.
Your destiny is dated now —
4th of July, 2016: The Year Of The Red Monkey
Until next time.
Your man,
-Victor Pride
I agree with this article Victor. My life up to 4/9/2016 was relaxed yet I was growing. But I could feel a big change coming out of the Unknown.
Over the past few weeks leading up to now my life has been changing very fast. It has almost been as if I was being crafted to be the person I need to be. Self-Employed, People being put in my life, love lost. Maybe it was Destiny or maybe coincidence.
This year is a great year full of opportunities waiting to be taken. I honor Destiny, The Red Monkey, and God by doing whatever I have to. This time next year I will be preparing for a great travel. The world will be set on fire from the action.

No such thing as spare time.
No such thing as free time.
No such thing as down time.
All you got is life time.
Go.

Victor,
Fantastic post sir! And one more thing this post did sound like a song! I have t admit that 2016 is a stick of dynamite ready to explode. You can feel it in the air!
By the way TNT is a great song by AC/DC

I’m not the only one who’s feeling the momentum! There’s definitely electricity in the air and I’m taking advantage of it to grow my business and live the life I want. I’ve never been more pumped to take risks.
With the US Elections going the way they are, the Brexit etc. I think you’re right…
The world is changing in a way we haven’t really seen since 1989/90 and that brings opportunity for the bold and uncertainty for the weak.
Someone is going to make millions - if not billions - from Brexit alone. While the rest of us argue about the 1% of social, economic, or political reasons we’re aware of.
What’s really happening in the UK: People are getting out of the way and opening up opportunity. It’s like the tide’s gone out, and you can pick up all the things that washed ashore.
This particular opportunity (more like cascade of opportunities) isn’t for me though. I burn and itch from not going for it, but I have to work on myself for now.
Other people can pick up the stocks of good companies that fell, barter deals, write books, make viral apps, *Position their anxiety medicines and suppliments in front of the doom and gloomers*, ride the trend with t-shirts and novelty shit, sell dried food stuffs (similar to mountain house) as insurance against job loss, and whatever the hell else you can think of.
what th fuck are you talkin about!!!!!?????
Thanks for the positive words!. My greatest success has come from failure that I had to fix. This country is full of fat complaining losers. I am actually working now which is fun to me!
( I have a vacancy I need to fill). I am self employed and I enjoy life everyday! I went on a picnic and bike riding w/ the kids Tuesday after noon when all the losers were at work! I keep getting calls to come over today to overeat, drink, do and talk about nothing. I am a female lone wolf and proud!
Great post ..even on a holiday,the teacher leads by example,
Straight in your your face inspiration.
This year , I’m not just reaching for success ; I am “GRASPING IT”
After reading this post I heard TNT on the radio jist an hour later. I crancked that tune up to 11 haha. thats a great song. Great post. Keep em comin!
I wore mine yesterday!

“According to the Chinese zodiac…”
Yeah, right THERE let’s you know you’re following after “devilish spiritual influences”. I’ve been there too before and even as a believer of the Lord Jesus Christ. I used to check up and read up on horoscopes, the Zodiac., especially the Chinese Horoscopes until I REALIZED “horoscopes” along with “astrology” is of the DEVIL, SATAN: http://www.jesus-is-savior.com/False%20Religions/Wicca%20&%20Witchcraft/astrology_is_satanic.htm
Please STAY away from this wicked, ungodly practices people!

Good afternoon Vic (and B&D) readers! It’s Sam P here unfortunately got in trouble and had to do some jail time for trespassing but no one fucked with me because of the training that Victor has showed me over the years. I finished a new drum and bass track I was working on a few months ago. This is by far my favorite blog ever so I have a special offer for you guys. The music is not on sale yet so before that happens if you check out my channel and let me know what you think I will send you a free download of any 1 track you choose just send me an email and you’ll be frosty cool.
Your man,
Sam P
I used to take Kung Fu and we would learn different animal styles.
The monkey was unorthodox, unpredictable, but this also made his style deadly.
It would be hard for his opponent to tell what he was doing up until the moment where the monkey strikes a powerful blow.
The monkey style of business can be the same. All of the people around you might look at you scratching their heads until it all comes together. Only then do they realize the hidden genius.
Cheers Vic,
