Mad About
Money
YOU MUST NOT HAVE HEARD THIS PHRASE QUITE OFTEN.
IN FACT, YOU MIGHT NOT HAVE HEARD THIS PHRASE AT ALL.
THE MAIN REASON FOR THIS IS BECAUSE MOST PEOPLE WILL
ASK YOU TO BE “CONTENT” IN LIFE. THEY’LL TELL YOU TO BE
SATISFIED WITH WHAT YOU HAVE AND BE AT PEACE. HOWEVER,
TODAY I WILL TELL YOU SOMETHING WHICH IS COMPLETELY
OPPOSITE. I’LL ASK YOU TO BE DISCONTENT IN LIFE IF YOUR
AMBITION IS TO BE RICH AND SUCCESSFUL.
Being content is closely
associated with being ha-
ppy. A philosopher once
studied what happiness
actually is. She says that
happiness is relative and
everyone experiences di-
fferent types of happine-
ss. All these happiness is
not necessarily related to
each other and one kind
of happiness may conflict
with the other. So, in other
words having too much of
one kind of happiness mi-
ght undermine other kind
of happiness, making you
docile and handicapped
in your thinking process.
EVOLUTION:
Let’s look at how we
evolved into the most
dominant species on the
planet. We evolved from
being mindless apes to
super intelligent homo
sapiens. From building
fire to building nations, we
have done it all. How did
you think all this happe-
ned? By staying content? I
don’t think so.
If humans would have
been satisfied by just
building fire, they would
have still stayed in the
stone age killing animals
and living under rocks.
The inherent nature of
human beings is being
dissatisfied, otherwise
there would have been no
evolution for us, or more
precisely evolution so
fast. It is that dissatisfacti-
on that has made humans
go the extra mile, lift that
extra kilo, move that extra
brick.
Evolution is the biggest
proof that humans have
been dissatisfied through
centuries, and that is not
a bad thing. In fact, that
is the best thing that has
happened to our species,
and that is why we have
come so far.
REVOLUTION:
Don’t listen to your peers
or elders or gurus saying
that you should be satis-
fied with what you have.
You should never be sa-
tisfied with what you have,
in fact you should never
be satisfied at all. Make
sure that you stay hungry
to make more and make
plenty. That’s the revolu-
tion I want you all to have
within yourself. Break free
from the comfort zone,
get cracking today.
If you have made a signi-
ficant amount of money
either by saving or by
smartly commercializing
your skills, it does not
mean you should stop
or you have come to any
sort of an end. It basically
shows what you are capa-
ble of and you should use
it to build your confidence
to make more of yourself.
Building your wealth is
not a journey from point
A to point B. It sure starts
from point A but there is
not point B, that journey
should never end for you.
Revolutionize the way you
think! It all starts there.
Being content with what
you have today basically
means you are strangling
the hopes of what you
might have tomorrow.
Go all in, take risks, make
calculated decisions and
make your money grow
with you. Look at oppor-
tunities around you, know
the market, invest wisely
and quickly. You will be
surprised how rich you
can be if
IF YOU HAVE MADE
A SIGNIFICANT
AMOUNT OF MONEY
EITHER BY SAVING
OR BY SMARTLY
COMMERCIALIZING
YOUR SKILLS,
HOW TO
GROW UP
AND GET
RICH
STEP 1
If you want to stay rich,
stop taking financial
decisions abruptly.
The rich are extremely
careful about making
investment decisions.
STEP 2
You will find plenty
of investors keen on
investing in a new idea
or startup. Be fully re-
ady with your proposal
with a long view of the
turnaround. Leveraging
your credentials and
experience can tip the
pitch in your favor.
