As I already wrote, money is not about money, but about love, security, self-worth and responsibility. Today is about responsibility! How is an adult different from a child? The ability to take responsibility for YOURSELF!!! Yes, yes, for yourself! Children often take responsibility for their parents, for preserving a marriage, for brothers and sisters, but a child cannot take responsibility for himself, this is such a bonus of childhood: as long as they are responsible for me, I can be small. But for some, childhood drags on until retirement, but the child cannot become rich, because money is not a toy for children!************************************** ***************************************** And the idea for the article was given to me by students, they started writing and asking if they had debts and what they needed to do to pass the test. I teach psychology at a university. Although the classes ended before the quarantine, everyone was told what/who to take. But: “tell me what to do, and then I’ll say that you said something wrong.” What does this mean? It just means that children are not ready to take responsibility for what they do. Well, okay, they have two more years to study, God willing, we’ll teach them! But in this regard, I remembered one interesting parable.********************* *********************************************** Somehow the foreman, a good guy, pretty tired, decided to retire. And the director asked him to build the last house, then they say we’ll retire. The foreman agreed, it was always difficult for him to refuse the one who was in charge. But then he began to get angry, first at himself, then at his superiors, who again did as they should, to remember all the grievances, then at his subordinates, because they always worked poorly. That's why he built the house anyhow! And when he built it, the boss gathered everyone together and solemnly handed him the keys to this house and said that the company decided to thank him for all the good things. The foreman stood all red with anger, and everyone was thinking with embarrassment! He was angry with himself for missing out on a chance again, while blaming others for his misfortunes, he realized that this was exactly the kind of home he deserved. A good parable? And the moral of this parable is this: STOP LIVING AS AS IF YOU ARE BUILDING YOUR LIFE FOR OTHERS, do you want to live in abundance and for your life to be of high quality? Then stop blaming your parents (bosses), children (subordinates) for the fact that you cannot take RESPONSIBILITY for your life and do for others as for yourself. ***************** **************************************** ****Responsibility is an answer to yourself for your actions; it is difficult to deceive yourself. And the strictest judge for us is OURSELVES. Are you ready to take responsibility for your life and admit that how you live, how much money you have is your choice? Yes, perhaps an unconscious choice, but now you have almost realized it if you read to the end! And it is also important to be grateful to yourself for what you have, including the opportunity to work at a specific job, because you were not lazy to study in this specialty, and to the world for the fact that someone needs the results of your work, because money comes from people! How about you with responsibility and gratitude?
