love of a job security, a two week a year vacation ,of a meager pension after working for life.
If not, then read on.
First of all stop lying to yourself. Most people have a price. And they have a price because of
human emotions named fear and greed. The fear of being without money motivates us to work
hard, and then once we get that pay , greed or desire takes over the mind and starts to show us
the pictures of what the money can buy. The pattern is then set. The pattern of getting up,
going to work, paying bills, getting up, going to work, paying bills... Their lives are then run
forever by two emotions, fear and greed. Offer them more money, and they continue the cycle
by also increasing their spending. This is the cycle of life, for most poor people."
Instead of telling the truth about how they feel, they react to their feeling, fail to think.
They feel the fear, they go to work, hoping that money will remove the fear, but it never does.
That fear haunts them, and they go back to work, hoping again that money will calm their
fears, and again it doesn't. Fear has them in this trap of working, earning money, working,
earning money, hoping the fear will go away. But every day they get up, that old fear wakes up
with them. For millions of people, that old fear keeps them awake all night, causing a night of
sleeplessness and worry. So they get up and go to work, hoping that a pay will kill that fear
stalking their soul. Money is running their lives, and they refuse to tell the truth about that.
I never want you to be rich, because by being rich is not going to solve the problem,
It never did.
Let me explain the second feeling, that is desire, desire to have something better, they want
money for the assumption that that can buy them happiness, but that is very short lived, so they
need more money to buy bigger happiness. So they keep on working thinking that money is
going to give them happiness.
Most of the rich people who are rich don’t become rich because they want to be rich, but
because they fear poorness, so they work day and night and become rich, and in the end start
having a new fear, fear of losing money, so they keep on working, for this fear. In fact as may
would tell you, most rich are worse than a poor person because at least a poor person can sleep
at night, a rich person can’t even do that.
Love of money or hating the money is the root of all evil. (Use money as a means to buy
something that you need, don’t love money as if money “is” your life.)
You will find many people who keep on saying I am not interested in money, well then why
the hell do they go on their job every morning for? This is nothing but denying the fact that
they cannot have money, it’s almost like the old story of a cat that can’t reach for grapes at a
height and then tries to pacify her mind by thinking that maybe grapes are sour. This is sheer
craziness. A JOB is an acronym for “just over broke”. If you have just graduated, or got free
from your studies, then don’t run after job money as if it is going to solve all your problems, it
never does. Instead try to think if that job is a long term solution (paycheck) for your long term
problem (no money) usually it’s no. a job is at best a short term solution for a long term
problem. People will tell you to study and get a good job, and it is a good idea for most people,
and I would like to remind you, most people are not rich.
I want you to understand and control the power of money and the fear of poverty.
I want you to understand and save yourself from this trap made of two things, fear and greed.
Use the two things in your support, and not against yourself. Don’t try to collect a huge amount
of cash for yourself, you cannot control greed or fear with that. If you cannot do that, it doesn’t
matter how much you earn you’ll still be a highly paid employee of money.
Don’t lose your mind in front of the emotions of greed or fear, instead learn to evaluate. Don’t
let the emotions pollute your thinking. It merely starts a cycle of fear greed and paycheck. Its
because of these feelings that people tend to spend their entire lives over an illusion of
Paycheck, increment, and job security, which never exists. They never think where these
feelings are taking him, their situation is just like a donkey whose owner (fear and greed) is
dangling a carrot in front of him, the owner goes where it wants to go, but the donkey is
chasing an illusion.
The second you started thinking about the new goodies money can buy like ring for your GF,
or a fancy car or a new bigger home, you started dreaming about that dream which is
supposedly going to make you feel good. These are just toys for life, and as you get richer,
your toys get more expensive, gold ring for GF converts into a diamond ring, a car converts in
a jaguar, a flat converts in a mansion.
I don’t want to say or mean in anyway that school is not important, it is important, it teaches
you skills which are required to grow a society. And the problem with this is two things, first
they don’t teach you about money and second for most people school is the end of learning,
and not the beginning. Learning must continue for life.
Don’t live a cruel life, to live life by the size of the pay or to believe that money can
buy you things that will make you happy or living with the illusion of job security. Don’t let
the two emotions run your life.
Today’s business schools unfortunately make people sophisticated calculators only, all they
can think of is cutting cost and increasing income, but they don’t know a dime of how to run a
business. They just kill a business in less time you can blink your eyes.
We can control this cycle by controlling the fear and greed and choosing one’s thought.
Choose thoughts instead of reacting to emotions. Most of the people get up in morning to go to
work and hoping to get a paycheck. Instead stop for a second and ask a question from yourself,
is going to a job a solution for your problem?
Don’t say stuff life, Well, everyone has to work.’ `The rich are crooks.’ `I'll get another job. I
deserve this raise. You can't push me around.' Or `I like this job because it's secure.' Instead of,
this why don’t you ask well what I am missing in this job which I should be getting?' which
breaks the emotional thought, and gives you time to think clearly.
Money is an illusion, almost like a carrot for a donkey; it’s only out of fear and greed that this
illusion of money is held together by the people of the world. Money is really made up. In
many ways the donkey's carrot was more valuable than money."
KEEP WORKING, BUT THE SOONER YOU FORGET ABOUT NEEDING A
PAYCHECK, THE EASIER YOUR FULL LIFE WILL BE. KEEP USING YOUR BRAIN,
WORK FOR FREE, AND SOON YOUR MIND WILL SHOW YOU WAYS OF MAKING
MONEY FAR BEYOND WHAT ANYONE IN LIFE CAN TELL YOU. YOU WILL SEE
THINGS THAT OTHER PEOPLE NEVER SEE. OPPORTUNITIES RIGHT IN FRONT OF
THEIR NOSES. MOST PEOPLE NEVER SEE THESE OPPORTUNITIES BECAUSE
THEY'RE LOOKING FOR MONEY AND SECURITY, SO THAT'S ALL THEY GET. THE
MOMENT YOU SEE ONE OPPORTUNITY, YOU WILL SEE THEM FOR THE REST OF
YOUR LIFE. THE MOMENT YOU DO THAT, LIFE IS GOING TO TEACH YOU
SOMETHING ELSE. LEARN THIS, AND YOU'LL AVOID ONE OF LIFE'S BIGGEST
TRAPS. YOU'LL NEVER, EVER, BE POOR AGAIN.
Learn financial literacy.
What is retirement, it only means that one’s wealth increases regardless of weather or not they
work.
People are too much concerned on money and not on their greatest asset which is themselves,
their earning potential, their education. Only if you have this asset can you tide through all the
world has to offer. Only then can you tide over all the changes that the world has to offer, ( it’s
adaptability)If a person is willing to keep an open mind and learn he can tide over anything and
grow richer with every change.
People fail to realize in life that it doesn’t matter how much money does one make, what
matters is how much money one Keeps.
Everyone knows stories of people who by an act of chance became suddenly rich, and are soon
poor again.
And my advice to the people always is, always have financial literacy if you want to stay rich
There is nothing worse than having money and then losing it.
Be financially literate.
In their zeal of getting rich fast people are ignoring the base of money, financial education
which is going to ensure they would KEEP that money.
