Road towards financial stability is different: First it will feel like a sacrifice. Then it will feel like the grind. Then it will feel like hustle. Then it will feel like life. Then it will feel like freedom.
Money should be used to make more money, only fools misuse it to bring a bad name to MONEY. Money is the best form of freedom, security, stability & insurance. Use your money right.
1. Missing people is not a reason to reconnect with them. It’s okay to remember people without rekindling.
2. You can’t talk to everyone about everything. It’s okay to have certain people for certain topics.
3. When someone is envious of you, it’s not your job to make them feel better about who you are. Your focus must remain in elevating your status & knowledge.
4. Assumptions are not rooted in fact. If you want to know something, it’s always best to ask.
5. Authenticity equals freedom. There’s nothing that someone can hold over you when you’re okay with who you are.
– OLD CLOTHES: BECAUSE YOUR CLOTHES DON’T DEFINE YOUR TALENT.
– POOR FRIENDS: BECAUSE THERE IS NO STATUS IN FRIENDSHIP.
– OLD PARENTS: BECAUSE WHAT YOU ARE TODAY IS BECAUSE OF THEM.
– SIMPLE LIVING: BECAUSE SUCCESS CAN’T BE JUDGED BY APPEARANCE.
(This video got nothing to do with the post above. I shared it because I liked it. Mayan calendar definitely deserves a look back, watch it for some fun. Big fan of SNL either ways.)
You are a luxury. Remember that. You are a luxury high end commodity. Nothing less. Only the richest can afford you. You make people look like they’ve made good choices. You make them look more attractive. You make them feel powerful. You give them status. You are a luxury. Remember that.
(This video got nothing to do with the post above the. Point blank it’s one of my favourite songs from 2021. You are allowed to laugh at the lyrics, i like SNL for good reasons.)
It is important to know who you are, what you stand for and how you want to see yourself. You have your whole life for you, and you determine what you do with it and how you will experience your journey. There is no one who can tell you who you are, because you decide for yourself. You make your own choices, you choose your own direction and you determine your own steps.
Think about who you are, think about how you position yourself against others. Think of your qualities and your intentions. See yourself as the person you want to be, without thinking about your status, your score, your ability or the people around you. Nothing or nobody should affect who you are as a person, who you are in terms of thinking, who you are in your actions. The life you have for you is your chance to follow your dreams, to discover, to develop and to enjoy yourself. Imagine a life in which you are completely yourself, in which you fulfill your dreams. Live your life. Life is fun, let it be.
One of my favourite feelings is laughing with someone and realizing half way trough how much you enjoy them and their existence.
Things are expected of you of your whole life, you are expected to make career, that you score well and have achieved a certain status. But life is not about status and work. These are extras.
What matters is that you can develop as a person. That you simply learn, discover and enjoy your journey. So instead of worrying about the numbers and status, you have to enjoy the journey and the small moments that can mean so much more.
I don’t want to be around people anymore that judge or talk about what people do. I want to be around people that do things. I want to be around people who believe in slow & steady progress. I want to be with people who gradually grow a rich character and a bank account. I want to be around people who remain consistent with their words, approach, intentions & journey of life. I want to be around people that dream and support and do things.
Supportive people bond long-term with growth mindset. Oppertunist comes to score petty short-term goals, it takes time but you will get rid of them today or tomorrow. (Not my words.)
Nothing is more important than empathy for another human being’s suffering. Not a career. Not wealth. Not intelligence. Certainly not status. We have to feel for one another if we’re going to survive with dignity.
What makes people trust you? Less so than your true reliability or assets, warmth is a crucial factor in establishing trust. People are more open to trusting those who portray themselves warmly in a non-competitive and friendly truthful manner. This theory is known as stereotype content model. It suggests that people are more likely to judge people based on their warmth than anything else, even intelligence and financial status.
While knowledge and money can earn you respect, warmth will elicit trust. Earn trust with warmth.
