The Y3K Philosophy

The basic philosophy here is to think different, think big, think, think, think. Don't give into anything that you think is wrong. Challenge traditional dogmatic beliefs. Don't take anything for granted. And, never assume! If you want to succeed, you will. Set goals and follow them. The difference between a goal and a dream is determination. Think further down the road then one year (the year 2000), think big (the year 3000). Today is not everything, tomorrow is. Don't seize the day, seize time. You have a whole lifetime to achieve your goals, but if you don't start today you will never accomplish them. And that's the heart of the Y3K philosophy, bigger, better, more efficient, more creative, more innovative. The year 2000 is passe, it's done, it's over. It's time to set our goals higher, and that's what the year 3000 represents!
