Pondering on your words and the question above, I have never and I think I will never say it to my self. I did not grow up in a wealthy family, my parents even struggled sometimes to out food on the tables but we are just blessed enough to be able to eat 3x a day. Now that I have my own family and I already earn for a living, I keep on working hard not only to provide but also to save for the future. Though there are times thta I feel lazy or demotivated for many reasons, I still wake up early in the morning dragging my butt to work and not waste a day without an income or an output whether it be on my work or in hive or other paying platforms.
For now, I am looking forward to tge time when I won't be struggling to find a budget on the things I need. I'd do it slow and steady and each day, I could say that today is better than yesterday.
I understand that there is financial struggle to contend with. This post is about saying that money isn't always the answer to happiness though, rich people can be just as stressed and miserable as poor ones.
The thing is though, life could be worse right? I mean, take me for instance...I could be handicapped and in a wheelchair, have terminal cancer or be starving to death living in the gutter...I'm none of those things (yet) and so I think my life is ok and something to value and appreciate.
I understand completely, we all do that to some degree I think. I hope also you take some time to think about the good things in your life, your health and family, those you love, the fact you wake up in the morning. I think that can be a nice little injection of positivity to help keep a person on track.
Life could be worse indeed. I appreciate how good. My life is now. That's what I meant when I meant to reply but my hands are not that fast type in all I wanted yo say and I forget about them.
Life is good and Im happy about it. I could be content with it but somehow, I still want to make my life even better. Not only for me but also to my family.
So many struggle with the complications of life, not just financial, and they all want their life to be better, as do you and I. It's important to be in the right mindset to make life better though, and that can come from being grateful for what we already have; it's good to hear you are.
Have a nice Sunday.
