All about money
Do you remember about the beginning of your journey for money? Most of us would think that when they earned their first wages was the point when they started it. Some of us would want to believe that when they got their first pocket money probably that was their first earning point. But according to me, none of it is a right answer the fact is your journey of earning started while you were still in your mother’s womb. You were learning the secrets of life right from that time and money was an important point of learning even then. A child begins to learn realities of life even when they have not yet arrived in this world yet.
A person develops feelings for money, good or bad right from his childhood according to his family circumstances and background he grows in. If a person is from well to do family background his feelings would be entirely different from people who come from weaker section of the society having nothing much to discuss but how to make their both ends meet. Such people do not have many choices but to develop sense for money based on their own surroundings consisting of their own parents, teachers, neighbors and relatives. Some of the feelings they develop come from their schoolmates, who belong to different sections of the society but in that case it is mostly the sense of jealousy which they get seeing their rich schoolmates.
Importance of Money
In Indian culture ‘To give’ was always more important than ‘To Take’ that made us believe that earning money was not as important as donating it even some of us made to believe that money was mother of all evil. Now, did we ever care to know about people who taught us the value of “Giving’ and not keeping it for our own needs? If you care to look-back and make a list of people who taught you about importance of donation or to whom you paid money were all those whosoever might have told you the reasons of ‘donation’. The common most reason of the same was the benefit about your enjoyments of life when you would reach in ‘other world’ although you are not one hundred percent sure about very existence of the other world. People kept giving and taking to make sure that they get the best places available in the ‘Other World’
Moreover, it never was a secret for anyone that it was a well-planned and managed mission in propagating this idea among common man of our society that ‘Giving’ was the only possible method to reserve best seats, which were too few. There is another important factor behind this ‘give and take’ that the takers were far more exceed the number compared to people who donate substantially, although small donators are spread allover the places who keep paying in different forms expecting that the amount they pay in charity will come in handy when they reach to the other world.
Money makes one selfish
Most big beneficiaries of such donations do not deserve it and the people, who need your charity your money never reaches to them. Most people who borrow money from you as your close friends never intend to repay when you need it for your own use. Most people who own big business do not want to pay their workers their rightful share because that is how they became big money people. There are different such species of people who invent newer ways of manipulating the innocent people on regular basis to fill their own coffers. Money is al what matters to them in the end ethics of how it came has no values at all. However, money has its place in every body’s life, if it is in your pocket that is well and good if not it is in your mind all the time.
To become rich is natural feeling
Money plays a vital role in your life and you cannot imagine your life without having enough money in your pockets. It is quite a natural desire to become rich and successful and every one tries for it with all his might. Some people succeed in their efforts and make millions but most of them get far lesser than what others get. There are innumerous examples of people who did best of their efforts but never had enough to become rich. But this all depends upon the circumstances and the way they did their efforts. We cannot compare outcome of any two persons who did the same efforts but their results were altogether different. But then some people feel satisfaction in lesser money and at the other hand, some never get satisfaction even if they earn millions. It is state of mind of persons concerned.
How you manage your financial problems
Everyone faces financial problems in their lives but some get out of them easily, some get out these with lot of efforts while some other never manage to out of their financial problems. For a simple reason, they were not prepared for rainy season. One does not have much control on ‘force majeure clauses’ but such problems make a big impact on their lives as far their financial health is concerned. People with advance financial management in place, come easily out from however the big the problem they face. They save the situation by saving enough money for difficult times. People who begin saving at an early stage of their career, never find it tough to get out of financial problems because they have enough money to counter it. As they say prevention is better than cure, same is true in money matters, regular saving is the best weapon to fight financial problems.
You are ‘No One’ without money
‘Money is not important for me’ I know this is one of the biggest lies we hear coming from different people at different occasions at different places. Perhaps you do not need many proofs to learn that every thing in life needs money to run it smoothly. And if one wants to say that money has no value for him, perhaps he is the biggest pretender or belongs to Himalayas that too where there are no shops, no houses and enough fruit wearing trees to keep him feed, forever. The fact of the day is you are nothing without money. The money keep you going in your life, money makes your position in society. Money is one of the most important factors of life perhaps as important as you need oxygen to live. You must set your priorities right and decide now that you are going to begin your efforts immediately, because if you do not it will be too late.
What does money matter
You do not have many options as far money is concerned. It either takes you toward money or away from it. Now it depends upon you whether you are want to go toward it or wish to stay away from it. There are people who do not know about their priorities and walking blindly. One should be very careful while dealing with money related maters because it can change your life if you know what you are doing. If you are careless in tax related matters or not keeping your accounts properly maybe too lazy and always trying to find excuses would see you loose money. One should understand properly that ‘it is money that follows work’ and not the other way round. You never get a good result out of wrongdoings. One must always remember that a high-rise building needs a rock solid foundation.
The ultimate target
Why does any one want to earn money? You may find it funny to answer but not all answers are going to be the same. Some want it for a successful future life, others want it for their daily bread and other necessities or yet others want it to be self-dependent. But the aim of earning money is common, everyone wants to achieve their targets through earning money and that is the ultimate reason for people to work. People should learn to respect money, in other words, they should utilize their money for right purposes. Most people know how to earn money but they do not know how to spend it or how to save enough, in my views they are not earning enough.
