"making money" or "Having the Ability to Make Money"??

The dilemma is always the same.

Either you put your energy in making or put your energy in having the "ability to make money".

It's always easy to succumb to the pressure and starting panicking and doing whatever you find to make that money.

Let’s imagine you have $1000 now. You made it from a post somehow.

So what? Are you going to travel? Are you gonna leave? Are you going to buy something? What will you do in the next 6 months?

Maybe you’ll have a sort of “quick vacation” somewhere...

Actually this is something that you can get for free if you want, only if you ask nicely.. That's the power of having a network and investing your energy in cultivating your best assets: human relationshis.

So what?

What do you think? huh? That it’s not worth the hassle?

What matters is the “Ability to make money” not make money itself. I know it’s hard, but you have to do it.

Learn from what you do, if you don't learn from what you do and rely only on getting paid for it then you're wasting energy in an asset that doesn't appreciate.

Do something that has a "Margin of Safety" as Warren Buffet would say. Something that even if you don't get any of the objectives you hoped, you still gain something from it.
