SCREW BEING RICH. Wait.. Read this post before verbally attacking me..
Screw being rich. Screw it if money has turned into the person you once said you would never turn into it.
We all lead a journey throughout our career and life. Can we predict our journey? NOPE. Can we aid it to be something we wish for it to be? YES. That is quite obvious but we all have our opinions and I do not wish to argue. I am willing to listen and learn your point of view so let's discuss this because I would love to hear your point of view.
Now, speaking of point of view.. let's get back to my point.
Whether you are just starting to discover your journey or have already embarked on one.. Four words should stick in your head
"I WILL NOT CHANGE"
Because, no matter the amount of success you reach.. WHICH YOU WILL. I PROMISE YOU THAT.
However, I can only hold up my end of the promise as long as you promise me that you will continue to do good and push yourself to the fullest in your career and relationships with other.
Promise? ARE YOU SURE?
Okay Deal!
Yes.. I get off topic easily but I am really hungry and I am at the cottage far away from Toronto so everything opens at 1PM on Sunday here. Hm. What do I do? I could probably cook some food but.. It's 6:10AM and my brain is functioning but the rest of me is GONE. I should sleep soon.
But for now.. we continue this awesome post :)
So.. Screw being rich. Damn.. I am so direct at this hour but I love it! Anyways..
If at the beginning of your journey you told yourself "I will never become that person" with the image of someone loaded with tons of money and their heart the complete opposite of their bank account.. poor.. mean.. dishonest.. and more ugly things.. well screw your money if you have or are slowly becoming into that person.
What's the point of being so filthy rich if your heart is so poor.
I am not saying to not CHASE YOUR DREAMS. Chase your dreams because I sure as hell do every single day. I chase success, I chase to better relationships with everyone and continue my great ones I already have. I am not saying you should not want to become wealthy because I DO.
BUT.. THERE'S ALWAYS A "BUT"
Don't start to become that ugly person you once said you would never become. Don't become a Mr. Donald Trump. Don't let the increase of money in your bank account also increase your ego and let you forget the purpose of your journey. Don't let the increase in the zeros on your paycheck look down upon those who don't have enough.
WITH GREAT POWER COMES GREAT RESPONSIBILITY.
Now.. you may not be a superhero like Batman, Superman, Spiderman, Ironman.. and let's not forget Antman.
I wish I was though.
But.. if you are at a point in your life where you can comfortably help someone, comfortably give someone confident advice.. Either you are at that level of success are on a route to get there shortly..
YOUR RESPONSIBILITY.. Should be to lend a helping hand.. You see someone on the street that looks like they truly have no money and aren't just asking for money to buy drugs.. well.. take them out for lunch... Buy them some groceries or a hotel room. Get them a new pair of shoes. Instead of adding a new pair of Jordan's to your collection, new pair of Gucci to your collection.. It will not hurt you to add a pair to the collection of someone in need.
A friend is in need of money? You trust them? Help them out.
YOUR MOM NEEDS FINANCIAL HELP? OH MAN. If you are at a place where you consider yourself successful and have enough money to maintain your life.. YOUR MOTHER should never need help. Especially FINANCIALLY.
If that woman carried you for 9 months and as much as you may think she is responsible for you.
You are now responsible for her. Plain and simple.
Screw being rich if your loved ones aren't part of it. Share your success and spread your joy because when you have it all.. you only have your joy to share.
Share it by giving.. helping.. teaching.. and so much more.
Let there be a great amount of success, wealth, and love in our lives..
Yours Truly,
Abdullah Khan - WealthyBLVD
