Mindset. I think everything boils down to it.
It is not the money that seperates the rich from poor. It is the mindset which makes rich, richer & poor, poorer.
I read a study which stated, if you took everything from a rich person, most likely he’ll become rich again in 3-5 years. Thanks to the mindset he has developed.
Also, majority of lottery winners are back to their mediocre lives in average 3 years after winning the lottery because they don’t have the mindset of saving & investing and end of splurging money carelessly.
I remember my father quoting my grandfather, “The world can rob you of your clothes, your money, your material possessions but no one has the power to rob your knowledge.” I think the same applies to your mindset. No one can rob you of it. It’s your asset which grows the more you work on it.
I remember one of our taxation professor saying, “Paristithi wahi hoti hai, manastithi badlo toh paristithi badale.”
Mindset is one thing which will help you in EVERY area of your life.
Work on your mindset. Make it strong. Rest everything will get taken care of.
