Entertain the crowd!

"True power comes when you can entertain the crowd." ~ Tee-J.

As I look into the world today, many of the world loves to be entertained. It is a natural instinct for humans to be entertained. Humans want to be entertained to hopefully hope to escape the pressures of this world every single day. It seems many of the powerful people of this world today are those people who can entertain us through the media, books and music. Some of these people include: J.K. Rowling, Steven Speilberg, George Lucas, etc. Guess what? Mainly these people are wealthy!

I find that those people who can entertain can also have the power. Since they are rich, I have always believed in the saying, "that he has the Gold makes the rules." True words!

My thoughts also reflect upon the comment by Proximo when he told Maximus, "Win the crowd and you'll win your freedom." It seems when you become a people person by trying to entertain the crowd, especially when you can give them what they want; they will automatically cheer you to keep going no matter what the circumstance. In a way when one wins the crowd, they also command the army. In other words, quoted again from the movie, 'Gladiator', "Today I saw a gladiator become more powerful than the emperor Rome!"

Winning the crowd doesn't always mean to win the favor of the crowd; but rather the ability to command legions; and the power to wield an army, a sword; and more importantly the power to entertain the crowd!
