Tell Your Son This Part 7

Money isn't everything

You say this after you let it slip through your fingers on payday

You're right, but for the wrong reasons

I feel sorry for those that are given things in life

They will never be able to appreciate it like someone that sacrificed for it

Stop talking about what you want to achieve

Start deciding what you're willing to sacrifice to get it

Don’t be pissed at consequences that you created

We all get what we earned

The dope part about self improvement:

Your children are going start way further ahead than you did

Everything you spend your adulthood unlearning and learning, from diet, healthy relationships, finances etc

The better you are, the better your offspring will be
