The poorer the people, the more they like to be “generous” in these four aspects. I hope you don’t have any of them.
Sachs once said: “Most poverty in the world is a disease, the result of bad life, bad environment and bad thoughts.”
The word poverty is actually a combination of two words, one means poverty and the other means destitution.
Poverty refers to a penniless living condition, while poverty represents a lack of hope.
There are many poor people in life. They may not have worked hard, but they have fallen into a vicious circle of thinking and cannot escape the shackles of poverty.
Everyone yearns for a rich and comfortable life and is willing to work hard for it, but in the end, there are still very few people who can escape poverty and become rich. Many people waste their time and energy in the wrong fields and directions. The busier they are, the poorer they become.
This kind of people usually live without money, but they like to be “poor and generous” in these four aspects. I hope you won’t touch any of them.
1. Believe in the science of success and be generous in blind investment
A few years ago, Success Learning became very popular in society, driving many people who dreamed of getting rich overnight crazy.
the famous for his saying “Understand applause”, relied on marketing success and made a lot of money.
He quickly became famous with his expressive words and provocative speeches.
His impassioned words made the audience’s blood boil with excitement as if they were enlightened and found the way to wealth.
Every time he gives a lecture at a class, he tells others to “be willing to spend money” and “dare to invest.”
Many people believed his nonsense and not only bought his courses but also began to blindly invest in industries they did not understand.
These courses that advocate successful learning are all meaningless. They do not teach people any skills and only teach vague concepts.
And people who don’t have much money in the first place bet all their wealth on investment. Once they fail, they will be in dire straits.
The poorer the person, the more they have blind courage and yearn for unrealistic explosions.
There is never a shortcut in life, and without the ability to match it, you will only get stuck in the quagmire of the road.
02. Maintain connections and be generous in drinking and dining
“A hero has three gangs and a fence has three stakes.”
When walking in the world, if you can have a few relatives and friends to help and support you, many troublesome problems will be solved easily.
However, the complexity of interpersonal communication is often far beyond personal imagination. What you think is sincere and sincere may be just an illusion.
Especially the exchange of glasses at the wine table and the drunken blunders are all just a temporary act.
Many people naively think that those so-called fair-weather friends can expand their network of contacts, and they work hard to develop them.
But when it came time for him to lend a helping hand, there was no trace of these cuckold friends at the dinner table.
As Pukarisil said: “A fake friend is worse than a vicious enemy.”
Friends are more important than having many friends. A group of snake-rattling people who are of no help to you are far less valuable than a life-threatening acquaintance.
Without like-minded ideals, there will be no sincere appreciation and respect.
Without personal experience of friendship, there will be no sincere commitment to each other.
Just maintaining connections through wine, meat, and food will only be digested by each other and eventually become useless.
03. Pass the time and be generous in entertainment
There are many injustices in this world, but time, something that a lot of money cannot buy, is particularly fair.
No matter how rich or poor a person is, it gives the same gift. The only difference lies in each person’s choice.
Some people plan their limited time rationally and carefully implement every part of the plan, making progress and feeling happy.
Some people disagree with this and only use their free time for entertainment, eating and drinking, or playing games.
Occasional slacking may not make much difference, but over time, the gap between the two will naturally be clear.
People who race against time gradually improve their skill levels through continuous learning and slowly realize their own value in life.
But people who waste time always feel that it is too early, and they hold on to the dream of “there is wine now and drunk tomorrow”, and they live in a drunken dream.
Buffett once said: “Time is the friend of the wise and the enemy of the mediocre.”
Since we all know the truth that “time is money”, if you want to take the road to wealth, you must seize your time tightly.
This wasted time will eventually be converted into real money and cannot be recovered.
04. Save face and be generous with luxury goods
In today’s society, consumerism is prevalent, and everyone likes to pursue luxury goods regardless of their wealth.
Especially ordinary people who have nothing in their pockets are even more eager to get it and try every means to get it.
This is not only to satisfy one’s own empty desires but also to show off one’s lack of “decency”.
Whether it is brand-name clothes or cosmetics, or electronic products representing cutting-edge technology, they are all tools for showing off.
But such disguised indulgence needs to be maintained with real money after all.
No matter how much admiration and envy you get from others, you can’t buy even a penny of practicality. You can only pay for your external “richness” by yourself.
invisible poor people.
Their biggest characteristic is that they seem to live a glamorous life, but in fact they live in a mess.
These people can spend in advance regardless of the consequences for the sake of face. If they don’t have money in their cards, they will find ways to take out online loans or overdraft their credit cards.
In the face of unlimited desire, they snowball poverty and get bigger and bigger.
It is precisely because he cares about his face so much that he tears the inside to pieces. He is arrogant in front of others, but decadent and depressed behind others.
Life is like drinking water. You can only know whether it is warm or cold.
Living in the world in the eyes of others will only be a mirror image, and no matter how beautiful it is, it will not last long.
Mark Twain once said: “Change is the element of life, and seeking change is the force of life.”
Everything in the world is constantly developing and changing, and so are people. Only by constantly seeking change can we change the status quo.
For the poor, the cost of trial and error is too high, and the slightest mistake will lead to bankruptcy, so they must choose to be “cautious” and generous.
Transform old thinking and get out of the shackles of established thinking, and one day you will be able to make a fortune.
