We cannot change our origins, but we can change our lives.
A person will be poor for a while, but will not be poor all the time.
In the current environment, as long as this person works diligently, hardworking, and progressively, he will definitely live a better and better life.
If his life not only does not get better, but becomes worse and worse, then he can only find the reasons from himself.
In the book "The Essence of Poverty", the author mentioned several reasons why a person is poor.
-01
would rather enjoy it than leave a way out for yourself
There is a story in the book that is like this.
The author came to a small village in Morocco , and then went to a man's house as a guest.
This man's family is very poor and he can't afford to even have a decent meal.
But he has a TV, antenna and radio in his house.
The author asked the man:
"Why don't you have to buy some food for the money of the TV?"
The man replied, "Because TV is more important than food."
As the head of the family, men only consider enjoyment and pursue some exaggerated and unrealistic things.
However, he forgot his family behind it.
The reason why a person is poor is because he overdraws his money.
does not have the habit of saving money and is unwilling to spend money in real places. Instead, he only cares about entertainment.
When a person cannot even meet the most basic survival needs, what he calls "spiritual pursuit" is a false proposition.
What is a plaything? That's it.
While yelling that he has no money and can't afford good food, he also uses the small amount of money left to enjoy. How can people like
be endless?
There are many similar examples in reality.
The family was not doing well, but he had no intention of changing the status quo.
would rather spend money on meaningless things than work hard to change the status quo of the family.
-02
A person is getting poorer because of "poor heart"
I thought of a story.
When a man has money, he does not choose to buy a house, but renovates his house in his hometown in the countryside.
People of the village either go to the city to buy a house or send their children out.
The only one who not only chooses to stay, but also keeps the child.
According to his meaning, "Our family is like this. You can't afford to buy a house in the city. It's better to live here." What's more weird about
?
His son finally got into college, but he did not pay the tuition for the child, and finally forced the child to go out to work and earn money.
It’s unreasonable to be like this.
Writer Yishu wrote this sentence in the book:
"Poor is a mentality. If you insist on your whole life that you are a poor person, even if you have a lot of money, you can't save you."
People are not scary, but what's scary is that your heart is poor.
has no ambition, no desire, is content with the status quo, and forcibly instill this thinking into children.
also mentioned a similar view in the book "The Essence of Poverty".
The reason why a person is poor is because he is short-sighted and has no long-term plans and plans.
For example:
He worked hard to make money, not for the sake of his children studying or for the sake of raising them, but for the sake of gaining something that can bring him temporary happiness.
Buy delicious food, snacks, clothes, and all kinds of luxury goods. He only knows how to buy books, learn, and guides children's values.
If you have 10,000 yuan in your hand, should you use this money to buy clothes, eat, enjoy, or save this money as a more important preparation?
No matter what you buy or eat, these are the happiness you bring to you, they are short-lived.
But if you use this money and learn skills, you will have more confidence.
This is the reason why the difference in thinking patterns leads to the continuous expansion of wealth differences between people.
The world is always running according to " 28 law ".
A few people have the vast majority of resources.
This is " Matthew effect ". The stronger the stronger the weak, the weaker the weak.
So, what should we do if we want to change the status quo?
compete in family, which is not as good as the family background accumulated by others over generations;
compete in education, but one's own education is not as good as others;
compete in connections, and the people we know casually are all the existences we look forward to.
If you want to change yourself, you must do these small things well.
put aside and throw away meaningless social interaction;
always work harder than others;
first set a small goal, save money, and then save more money;
increases revenue and reduces expenditure;
can spend or not, and there is no need to spend;
No matter what, don't overdraw your future money to satisfy your current desires.
You must have a clear self-awareness and do not fall in love and get married during periods of inability.
As long as you are willing to work hard, have confidence, and are full of expectations for the future, you will definitely live a better and better life.
people don’t need to compete with the outside world, they just need to be better than themselves in the previous stage, which is enough.
