I HAVE MET enough unhappy millionaires to know that money alone does not make you happy. I’ve seen people work so hard they do not have any time for their families (or even time to enjoy the money).
They doubt their friends’ motives, or become paranoid about people trying to steal from them.
Wealthy people can all too easily end up feeling guilty and unworthy, and it can be a heavy load to carry – especially if you don’t treat that fickle impostor right.
You see, money, for its own sake, like success or failure, is a thing of little lasting significance. It is what we ‘do’ with it and how we treat it that makes the life-changing difference
Money, success and failure can drastically improve or ruin people’s lives. So you have got to treat it for what it is. And you have got to stay the master of it.
Wealthy people so often find that the summit of their mountains – the success that they sought – isn’t enough. And they are right. It isn’t enough to satisfy our deep hunger for meaning and purpose. (And we will talk about that later on.)
In essence, you have got to build your house on good foundations – on rock, not sand – and money as a goal in itself will never satisfy you.
So choose wisely. And be careful what you wish for. When you start putting the correct steps into place, good things will start to happen. So you have got to be prepared for the success when it comes.
Money can make the path more comfortable, but it will never remove the potholes.
The billionaire John Paul Getty famously said: ‘I would give everything I own for one happy marriage.’ That is pretty telling. Money doesn’t solve all your ills.
In fact, money, like success, tends, instead, to magnify your life – and if you are living with the wrong values, money will make things much worse. Conversely, if you get it right, money can be an incredible blessing.
So try not to worry about money, ever – instead focus on the journey. And certainly don’t waste time and energy accumulating just wealth. Follow your goals wholeheartedly and there will be enough to satisfy you. Just wait and see where your dreams can take you.
Some people are financially rich, some are not, don't worry about it..
Live a rich life.
I have an aunt I love very much; but she has a very cluttered life; and has property in various states. She runs back and forth between these homes, and is really kept burdened by her assets, rather than enjoying her wealth. We all ask her to simplify her life, and enjoy it.
There is another side to this coin:
When you finally get to be your own boss, and create your own business. Or do that which you would like to now try, and you really understand just how special that opportunity is; be at peace with your wealth and help others as well.
@surfyogi well said!! Yaa truly said I'm agreed with you be own your boss and tried to help those are suffering from poverty:))
The meaning of life: To be the richest guy when you die! ;)
