Most people simply let life happen to them. However a few, a very few, decide what's going to happen to them. Making for a simple living is enough from many, but not for few. Others believe that accumulating lots of money will bring them long lasting happiness and undeminished successful life. What a big mistake!! Through research from the stories of life, books and experiences, I've learned that wealth doesn't bring contentment in life. If you reached a certain point, wealth and money becomes unimportant; what matters is YOURSELF.
I mean, our Relationships, Purposes, Responsibilities, Actions and Attitude, Potentials, Talents, Goals/Dream/Vision and personnal success are the most important thing than wealth.
Pool Player like Efren "Bata" Reyes accumulated Wealth and Price-Money not because he wanted it in the first place, but because he maximize his talent in Pool Table. Manny Villar became one of the richest businessman in the Philippines because he develop his management potentials and continually establish different kind of business. Manny Pacquiao accumulated riches because he develop his boxing international career. Mr. Henry Ford, who grew out his interest in anything mechanical and devoted his full attention in improving his skills in engine, founded the Ford Motor Company. This people don't prioritize how to get money, what they prioritize is how to develop their talent, potentials, and good relationships with other people. See? They became rich. A humble rags to richest individual.
If you have a good relationship with people. If you value responsibilities and practice good attitude towards friends and strangers. If you continually improve your potentials or translate your Goals, Dream and Vision into actions; Wealth and money is easy for you.
Because of Love of money, the big problem rise. Most people focus their attention in getting quick money and disregard other important factors in their lives. The consequences are, they forgot to enhance their good relationship with other people, paid no importance in exercising good attitude towards people, their potentials and talents are undeveloped, they didn't exert effort to realize their dreams into actions, they turn out to be undisciplined person with no integrity and credibility, and the worst part is they happened to be the great serial liars and cheaters. If we will look further, the long-term outcome are ludicrous; They're still uncontented in their life even they have numerous bank deposits. Unfelt real prosperity in their heart. They have Success & Happy image but not in reality.
"That's the most common mistake of men and i don't want to have that kind of mistake in my life. Never!"
