Topic: Just a reminder. Don't lose yourself in the process. (Read 391 times)

Process is something that we must check and follow but that does not mean that we need to follow each steps or to be overwhelmed of the situation because in this many made mistakes and indeed most have failed because of wrong interpretations .
so wait and allow yourself to evaluate everything then decide after.

Just enjoy everything , if this is not bringing you smile while you are doing such then better leave it alone , try to find things that is always positive on you , the process is best if we knew what we are entering .
life is too short , we cannot act to favor others instead lets serve our self .

The endless chase for money, the rat race that never seems to end, it can feel like a suffocating grip on life. We all know people, maybe even ourselves, caught in that treadmill, hustling for that ever-distant finish line. And as you say, sometimes it all feels empty, a hollow pursuit leading to a hospital bed rather than a hammock on a beach.

But maybe, just maybe, there's another way. Maybe "enough" isn't a static number, but a shifting feeling, a balance between pursuit and contentment. Maybe true wealth isn't just measured in zeros in a bank account, but in the richness of experiences, the depth of relationships, the quiet pleasures of a life well-lived.

That's why it's important that we try to put ourselves in this kind of situation.
We do have to work and prepare for life in the future especially if we have a life partner and family to depend on, but that doesn't mean we have to become a workaholic to get that because our lives will become monotonous if we are in a situation like that.

I think in this case we need to know what is important for us even though making money and focusing on work is very good but we should not forget other important things because in the end apart from work or business done do not forget that we have to mingle to make relationships better so in this case we should be able to be wiser because something like that will make your life monotonous. Indeed you do not get your psychological needs in socialization because you only think about the material which is the future goal but do not pay attention to the condition of your biological needs as a social being.

Sometimes, I blame the society for measuring standards for people. The world was a happy place before the internet but now, it is now a place to oppress each other with success pictures on how life journey and how we have made it in life and the person looking these pictures on other end might have not yet make it, this will make him feel less of a man and will want to do anything to succeed in life, we go beyond limit to be successful just to show the world that we have made it that we even forgot to be happy about the little things that matters.


Gone are those days when we believe in gradual process because with patient, anyone can cross a mile a way but now, everyone want to be successful on time and I blame the society for making this standards. If not that we don't look beyond, most of the successful people that we have today are not in there early 30s, top 100 richest people in the world today are above 40 years old but you will see a teenage person want to be successful in life when he is still in college or living under the roof of his parent, indeed we have so many sad generations among us.

Life doesn't have a manual, just believe in your goals and objectives, life is not a linear line that you can have the way we want, you can fall as many times but always learn to progress and learn from mistakes, you will eventually get there one day if you are consistent in the journey.

As you have pointed out, there are a lot of aspects in life to take into account. We all know that no man can survive without money, but when it comes to seeking for it, we should always be composed. In fact, when we do so, we can occasionally pass money and we remain unaware. Therefore, if we truly want to succeed in life, we should learn how to be composed in whatever we come to propose. However, the issue I have with some people is that, even if they believe that they are blessed by God, they tend to forget those around them. Life is not like that. We must be together since you could not be here tomorrow.

"Don't lose yourself in the process." - what if it’s not losing yourself in the process, but metamorphoses that change you and take you to a completely different level?

In any process, you learn something and acquire new skills, which makes you, at a minimum, better professionally.

Not a single dream comes true if you don’t work and make an effort. Or did you want to find an easier way?

If you giving enough attention, but wouldn't ask these questions. If you think that you don’t spend enough time with your surroundings, then start spending more. Why complain about it?

Resources vary. Monetary is one of them, but there is also a human resource, which, like money, requires spending time and effort to obtain.

If your job involves a lot of anxiety and stress, you may want to consider looking for a new job. Why do you need a job that harms your mental state?

Not everyone achieves success, but those who don’t try, in principle, achieve nothing.

Base on how things have became so costly and difficult in the society due to inflation, we work work work forgetting so many things we ought not to, but in life it's very important to strike a balance between working hours and time you spend with your love ones.
We might not know how important it is to strike a balance now, till we get sick, that when we will know that their is more to life than just working all through our days.

I agree. It's easy to get so caught up chasing money and status that we overlook what really makes life meaningful - the people we love.  In our scramble to buy nicer stuff and climb the career ladder, we end up shortchanging the relationships that sustain us. 

We assume promotions or a bigger house will make us happy, but those things tend to provide a temporary high more than deep fulfillment.  Meanwhile, we miss out on little moments with our kids, friends, and partners that turn out to be what we cherish most when we look back on our lives and

The truth is our real wealth can't be counted in dollars - it lies in the bonds we form through shared memories and experiences.  Making time for those we care about feeds our souls in a way material things just cant replace.  I think it's important we keep sight of that, even as we strive for success.

You made the appropriate statement. At the end of the day, if we have this money, what if our loved ones are no longer close to us? There's no way we can bring them back into our lives. Those who were with us before we started chasing money are more important to us. The majority did not care losing people around them; they just cared about making this money. Op, when some people start chasing money, they think that's the best way to succeed in life. We know that money brings happiness, but we shouldn't forget where we come from. Not everyone will return to our lives once we eventually make this money, therefore we must treat others well so that even after we are gone, they will remember the wonderful deeds we did. 

Regarding chasing money, you mentioned that we shouldn't lose our lives while trying to find it. You know, some people find that life's hardships exhaust them; they don't mind losing their lives in order to make money; all they want is to feel wealthy, even though they will lose their soul. Money is important, but we shouldn't sacrifice our souls in the process.

Well, Said.. I think it is very important to maintain a healthy balance between your work life and personal life.
A lot of people fail to understand that if work and money is important then family and loved ones are also important. A human should not work more than necessary. and he should not forget about family in the race of this world of making money.
I think these problems can be solved with proper time management and discipline.  

Money will solve problems, wealth will make you never lack, but there’s more to life than money. It’s sad what many people will do just to make money. Many of us have seen homes where no one in the family is very rich or wealthy, but they are so happy with their lives. I think one of the issues we face is contentment too. We aren’t always content with what we have and continue chasing more. I think that’s as human beings that can leave this world at any time, we need to take breaks. Sometimes we need to pause, enjoy life, because everything we do is to be alive. Praise yourself for even merely being alive.

Not all people have the same status in life once they are born, some of them come from the lower part of society that getting hard to have money and one of the solutions they need to do is to keep working so we cannot blame them if they don't want to look back where they came from, and they want to focus on their future and current path, still, some people want to help back those people help them during their hard times and there's nothing wrong on it because you didn't reach that status where you are now if someone didnt help you out with your struggles. Even we keep saying that money doesn't reflect too much still in reality money is the key to power to get up your status in life.

When you do not have the money, it is hard to not make money your everything

Because money does not come often by you there will come a point where it is the thing that you prioritize first thinking that it is for the best it will benefit yourself and even the people around you sometimes because we have lost focus, in the process of achieving those dreams we lose the very reason why we had dreams in the first place

I do wish to be successful and rich in the future but i hope that i can keep the people i have shared my life with when i was not yet successful and be able to share what i have when i am finally successful

If you said competition is so high, it means everyone are trying hard to improve their knowledge and skill, so everyone only care about study or anything that will improve their ability. It's wrong if you need to look people around you because they're not looking to you or people around them, why need to take care or treat them when they didn't even care with you? I can say like this because it happened to myself.

To reduce anxiety or stress, you can do other thing with your money without need to hangout with your friends e.g. eat delicious food, staycation, going to bar, playing games etc.

It really depends on the process. If a person make money only by working for someone else, he could never become independent and would be obligated to spend almost all his time for work. The sad part is, it could never pay off. In my opinion, the only way to escape such a scenario is to make up some new way to make money, which would suit you particularly. Cryptocurrency can help with that, I am convinced.

This is very true and thanks for the reminder as many people that have loss themselves in the process can read this and have a sense of concern for their loved ones again. It is very serious that people don’t even care about their loved ones because of their verge for sustenance. One thing I realize about all this is that; after getting the money you’ve been chasing after, if you don’t have your loved ones around, you’ll not enjoy the comfort of that money. We hustle to make money for our families to enjoy with us and not for the main purpose of us enjoying it. 70% of the money you make in life are being used by others and not by you, and that is what we call selflessness.

Money is not everything but everything needs money. Having money can help you achieve everything you want, money can also make you sleep soundly without any problems crossing your mind. Money as a bridge to dreams, having lots of money allows you to start a business and build your dream house with your family. Success in achieving a level of financial freedom always requires support from those closest to you such as wife, children, parents and closest relatives.

Earning money is not the only goal in life, there are still other responsibilities that must be managed to manage time to gather with family. Being together with your family is another goal that must be prioritized which can help you live a better life.

Do you want to spend time with people and live in poverty forever or you want to be rich and other things comes second. Lets focus on what is important, hustle to make money so you can take the vacation you want and be with your loved ones later. I get your point but lets us not lose focus on what the goals are. One of them is to be financially independent and we're to do whatever it takes legally to attain that even though it has to mean we ignore our loved ones for now.

If you don't make it, it's still those people that you were giving your time that will neglect you as you become less important. Money isn't everything but not having it is the worst punishment on earth. Money controls everything, with the money you can give those loves one a memory that they can't forget in a hurry.


Earning money and being successful that's all that matters for now, forget about the bonding they're not necessary. Just been there for your love ones is fine don't put anything ahead of your goals of having financially freedom. Make the money first and you can take them all on the vacation you want and spend time with your loves ones. Don't put bonding time over hustle time but if there's a way you can balance everything then do it.

You would really be living a life to be boring and something that wont really be that colorful if you do really just that make yourself that too mindful about on how to make money.
Its true that you wont really be having that life on cherishing something specially with your loved ones because you had put all of the attention and time when it comes to money making.
You would really be definitely be putting up yourself into those potential family  relation problem on the time that your children wont really be that making out such treatment
as a family member just because you havent able to have some bonding into them. This is why it would really be that important on having some balance
when it comes to money making and spending time with your loved ones.

I think in this case it depends on us prioritizing and being good at positioning ourselves.
Preparing for a good future is a must and indeed it must be done but that doesn't mean it has to bury all the fun including the time that must be wasted to just hang out with friends and family. We must be able to make ourselves comfortable with the targets we want to achieve for the future while at the same time not making our situation seem to isolate ourselves from others because after all things like that are not very good.
We can still get both so that we are not complacent in one of them and it is actually a choice that we must make because in the end what supports us to live prosperously is not only about material and money but togetherness with family and friends can also be a good support so that we do not feel we are different from others.

Im really on such condition or on process on which time is already that being having no balance in regarding about family time and bonding but im thinking that reaching out on a particular state or condition on which
i wont really be needing to have some job or simply that financially free so that i could spend up time more with my family. This is my target and yes it might not really be something that can be known on what would be the outcome but as long im that still young then i could still have those chance and probability that i could reach it out. Money isnt everything but having none or shortage would really be bringing out such big impact
and there are people who cant really just bare up to see that their family is really that at tough situation in terms of finances.

It is really that normal for a husband or a father that they would really be working so hard so that they could give out the things that they do want in speaking about things and wants and needs in life.
Yes, time is crucial and important but having no money to support is much more not a good thing to have on. So it is a normal
approach that we would really be working hard for them.

I think that there is still a point in what he said, because if we are still seeking profit in this field, it is still showing that if we are aiming for profit in cryptocurrency, for sure it is also for the people around us who give value to us, and that's why we do this is also for our loved ones. Right?

So it means that what we are talking about is still related somehow, because if we only focus on money or earnings and nothing else, it will appear that we are very greedy when that is our only reason.

With money revolving around majority of our lives, a lot of it can make one's life comfortable and easy.

Perhaps this is the reason on why lots of people are trying their best to earn cryptocurrencies due to its potential in the future. Especially that there is a halving that s going to occur by April, everyone should keep track of the time and determine when they would cash out and convert their BTCs to their respective and desired currency.

At the end of the day, people should not lose themselves over a failed investment. Sure, we may have incurred some losses but this is not the end of the game as this is definitely part of the whole tools in cryptocurrency.

But what if we chase those dreams of ours for them? I guess this is a very good argument for this topic. I think it is okay to chase something like money because that is equivalent to comfort in the future. I mean I think it is okay to disappear and forget while chasing those things but we should always go back and take a look back to see and help people who helped us and supported us along the way. Being selfish is one way to give yourself a pretty hard time when we get old, when you can't stand on your own no one is there if you call.

The Best thing to do is check on people from time to time, you won't know when will you need help from people around you.

Yes, it’s the reality but we know definitely that it won’t be good for us in the long run. It’s better to still live in balance, give enough time to work to earn, and do not forget to rest for a while and enjoy your current life. That’s how it should be, but unfortunately people focus more on earning money and never get contented and still find other means for additional income, until the body decides to quit and end up stop working on its own.

Although it’s a requirement for us to work and earn adequate income, but we all know there’s no enough for us. We still work hard no matter what, even in times that we’re supposed to rest and enjoy what we’ve got.

Ironically, rank, position, wealth, and everything that boosts a person's social status actually makes them lose several things, including good relationships with their family members. Not all rich people really care about the condition of their parents, some of them are even abandoned in orphanages and only fulfill their needs without being willing to visit them.

I completely understand what you mean - but those are some of the things that happen in the social environment. A life full of love and peace of mind is something that everyone hopes for instead of just wealth and possessions - but unfortunately not everyone has it. So yes - keep trying the best for ourselves and everyone around us, especially our family.

People look for a purpose in their lives and some of them devote to their jobs, neglecting everything else. It might not be the best approach to living a fulfilling life, but it works for some, even if it is not the most ethical alternative in many cases. But, is the father or mother who are devoted to their family but aren't willing to have a job and let them live in poverty any better? There must be a balance.

A colleague in my work is retiring early, even if the effect in his income from now on will be terrible compared to what he would get if he held on for a couple of years more. He says that his work makes him angry or stressed sometimes, even at home, and that he doesn't want his son to remember him as the ogre he has become. And he has all my respect for that.

a man will need to be appreciated by the people whom he supports and will be able to work the entire week.  this is what society expects a man to do, it is to work to provide for the family. the more a father can give to his family the happier the father is because he will be appreciated by the wife and the kids.

as long as the person has the time to share with the kids, it becomes a mutual relationship between the father and the family but with less time to chat and no family dinner, it's not gonna be healthy for the relationship we've seen families break apart when fathers have no time to be with the kids.

That is the importance of dividing time in life for everyone, because time never goes backwards, but always goes forward without being able to repeat what has already passed. Within twenty-four hours a day and night, everyone can divide it into three important aspects, including work, worship and family and also rest. Each person can use eight hours of work time a day and also eight hours for rest, while the rest is for family and for individual worship. Because if someone is able to share their time in that way, I don't think there will be too much pressure on them.

We are all becoming mechanical day by day.  Everyone is just running after money.  Money is very necessary in life, it cannot be denied. But we leave everything and run after money only.  It is very frustrating. It is destroying our family unity.  Even under the same roof, there is a lot of distance between us.  We should come out of this disease. We should earn enough money to move on in life, give enough time to family. We should give time to ourselves.  Take some quality time for yourself. Otherwise, at the end of life, you will have money but no good memories.

It is important not to get consumed by work & to enjoy home life, family time & leisure time because a healthy work life balance is essential for overall well being. Constantly focusing on work can lead to burnout, stress & health issues. By prioritising personal & family time we can recharge, strengthen relationships & find fulfilment outside of work. It allows us to create memories, pursue hobbies & take care of ourselves physically & mentally. A balanced life leads to increased productivity, happiness & a sense of purpose beyond professional achievements.

That's not the point here mate. We can do whatever we want to make more money. But sometimes we lose ourselves in that process that we forget what is more important than money in our lives. Which is the people around us and the people we love. Imagine you have achieved everything in life and you have also trained your kids or family members to be the same. They are out there making their own life a success. But you fell sick at your 70 and you are on a hospital bed fighting with death.
How would you feel when no one is there and you can't recall any moment with them that can remind you of them? So use the precious time you have in hand to reconnect with the people you love. Make memories. It is hard to make time but at least make a few moments that are worth remembering. 

I agree with the op's sentiment. Money is necessary for survival and for some beneficial things, but it's not the ultimate goal, and life should be spent doing enjoyable things and making a positive impact on those around us. Being rich is not among my life goals at all. I just want to have enough to be able to live a comfortable life, to support my loved ones, to travel occasionally etc. But spending time with my family and friends is more important to me than earning more money because I want to enjoy my life while I can, and just earning more isn't giving much joy because it takes the precious commodity of time that could be spent doing other things. It's hard to remember these things in our capitalist world, but it's important to see money as a means, not a goal.

Everyone on this forum platform is looking for the same thing, and that is to get a good profit, whether it is Bitcoin or cryptocurrency that has potential in the market. And that's just that there is no shortcut here to being successful in the end.

We all need to go through what we have to go through so that we can achieve what we want to happen here. And this will only happen if we learn everything there is to know, such as trading and tracing potential altcoins in the market as well.

That's what people needs to know, we should be able to balance our work and personal time, first of all we might neglect our health because we are too focused on work, Sometimes we are not aware that we have changed a lot because we are too burned out we are doing.It is also important that at least once in a while we take time to rest and vacation with our loved ones because maybe later we don't notice, our time is consumed by working to earn money but the exchange is the loss of time and attention to the people around us.

I am sorry to break this but it is hard we can not just stop working and change the way things are working for us. I know we should live a life that's our dreamy land, and go out anytime we want with our families and friends but we are so stuck in the circle of work and life that it is impossible to go that way. Get this, if we try to live a life with just joys and get out of the process then we will ultimately have to live life on low wagers. This means we need to work less but also less wager and fewer expectations from the life expenses. This could be anything from good cuisine, to great gateways with family/friends OR having medical emergencies etc. This means we must compromise the life we can live with better earnings. The only way to get out of this is to manage the work-life balance. This is the only way to make this happen. I am not trying to deny the good life fact here but the reality is we need money as importantly as we wanna live life.

This is very true.

It's not bad to work like you're really broke but always make it balance. Too much time in the office or in your work makes you incomplete as a human being, especially if you have your own family. You also have to spend time with them, watch you kids as they grow, knowing what's their favorite, and what kind of game they love to play. You also need some vacation, to clear your mind away from stress in your work, to be more productive.

It's important to know if you work for money or money works for you.

What's sadder is that most of the youngster on their early twenties doesn't even have time to find the people that they consider their closest friend, they are too focused on the competition of live, most of them considering their peers as their competitor. They don't date, they spend lesser and lesser time to socialize, when they do it's because they want to do some business, not because they want to know and enjoy each other.

I think one of the reason is social media, we used to focus on our own life chasing our own goal, now we see other people achieve their goal and we think that we should have achieved the same goal like them, we never consider that we have different starting point, we have different privilege, and we have our own time to reach our goal.

That's right, I agree with you, making money is not wrong because of course we all have our own desires and with a good mindset of course we must be able to realize what we want by working hard to make money, and also that way we have a good income. It will clearly lighten the burden on parents, and in pursuing income or money, of course we should not forget ourselves or our family, because family is the most valuable asset in our lives.

Sometimes in a family there are people who have a bad relationship, even though they are husband and wife, but they themselves have jobs and they are also pursuing their own careers, so they don't have time to gather or communicate with each other, even once they communicate. only for a short time and this usually happens to rich people who have good careers, but with a simple family they can divide their time to earn money and time to gather with family, this is what must be done, balance the time to chase money and time to gather with family, because when we feel tired and tired, our home is our own family. This is what you need to remember, that family is the most valuable asset.

After a long time came across such a post which is close to reality and a great advice for everyone. All your words are very touching, Never in my life have I seen such people who achieve everything by earning wealth, because all desires can never be fulfilled but we are working day and night to fulfill every desire in life. Money is necessary to meet the needs of life, but if your needs are being met well then one should never want more. The things you mentioned are there in all of us, we get so busy in making money that we forget the relatives and friends around us. As the world is developing rapidly, now these things are becoming common. Every person is limited to himself.

In cities, you don't know who is living with you and what they are doing around you. The concept of relationships, neighbors and friends is now seen only in villages, because there is no lust and greed to earn more wealth. In the olden times when people were connected and shared each other's sorrows and joys, and felt for the people around them, there was no desire for wealth. Now wealth has taken the place of all these things, now wealth has become our relative, friend and neighbor.

That's a modern life there there. People work really hard to fulfill their dreams to come true, but they often forget about their closest one even their family because of how busy they are chasing the money for their dream things. Work is great but please take care of them, they did everything good for you when we were a kid then we should the same for them. I'm really glad that I have supportive family.

You are correct but the whole culture is pushing people to live their lives this way, why? Because it is better for their pockets and the economy, if a person was happy with a moderate level of success, once they reached it they will have no reason to keep pushing themselves like mad just to improve their living conditions a little bit, and in fact I do not believe there are many people which can do it, since it is in our nature to always want a more.

Where there is high greed, losing yourself in the process is what follows next. So if one cannot be greedy, that will be a lot better so that he can manage and balance his life and not just focused on money and profits, that he tends to forgot the most important thing in life, that is to still be thankful despite of not having too much and enjoy life even with the simple things around.

The best days in life are not actually those when you find riches in life like bitcoin and other assets, but it's actually those you can live with joy and satisfaction even without multi source of assets that will generate profits.

You are right, everything you said was true. It's true that it happens to rich families, so their other children end up on the wrong path because they don't guide them because they are more focused on their work, we can't blame them either because they are also doing that for the future of their children and to their family but no matter how busy you are, still give time to the ones you love. human life is short.

Do you know that some people never consider every family member when they finally make the money that they seek? Because of how much suffering and stress that some of these people went through before getting rich, they like for other people and members in their family to experience such hardship. They will never help because they have the idea that they suffered much before they could get rich and should not just be giving it out.

do not loose yourself while trying to make money also includes not loosing your humanity that you are willing to do anything to make money, and not loosing your kindness due to the process it cost you to make money.

The survival of the human  race from time memorial has not been an easy one, people strive day in day out to foot their bills, because if you don't foot your bills, nobody will do that for you and that is the reality of the Human nature and is surprising that in all the creatures of God is only human being that needs money to survive and in the quest of having that money they work everyday to earn every dime, that is why we always end up apologizing to our loved ones for not having or spending time will them mostly because they have to understand that we have to earn to make a living.

I don't forget the people around me, especially my family. But in the process, when I had big dreams, friends who didn't support me, even made fun of the dreams I had. and the people who are part of my family, they often weaken the processes and abilities that I have, with the statement "Never mind... you were born from a poor family. So it's impossible for you to have bigger and better dreams now "Look for a permanent job, with a clear income every month so that your life is more secure. Rather than continuing to try to build a business that sometimes makes a profit and sometimes makes a loss."

And believe it or not, for example, when you decide to enter the business world, namely selling clothes. My question is, who was the first person to buy these clothes? Are our brothers? No, because they often don't accept that their siblings have to be more advanced than themselves, instead they act in the opposite way by continuing to weaken the process we are going through. And are our friends willing to support the business we are starting? No... often they underestimate the process we go through, the product and when the product we sell hasn't sold, will friends help by buying or promoting it... but a friend actually says, "Never mind, the clothes won't sell, Just give it to me for free."
So in the end, whether you realize it or not, the first person who supports you when you are just starting a business is someone you don't know at all. And it's actually people you don't know who will buy the product you offer, for the first time.

The moment I realized I was nothing, life seemed so easy in every context. I used to work for a corporation with a pretty good income but then decided to quit my job and move to other areas. The countryside and even the mountains and forests are closer to nature. Not sure if everyone feels that life is inherently very simple, we ourselves complicate it, to put ourselves in awkward situations. Are emotions, material things, reputation,... really that valuable? For me, it's about balance, like I feel grateful for everything that's happening and don't intend to try too hard achieve something.


I have felt that from birth, people are pre-programmed with choices and opportunities to achieve their goals. In one way or another, each person is their own. The reason they exist is to fulfill their destiny in life. Yep, money is important but it is not everything because in the end we also use it to satisfy the things that we or others impose on the process of improvement, and money is nothing more than that. a tool to connect and accomplish goals easily.

Never live life that is manipulated by money. You still have to be in full control of your life, which means there are times you need to earn to live a successful life, but there are also times that you need to live and enjoy life even without money involved, that is simply bonding and creating memories with family and loved ones, which I think is also a necessity for a human being.

Live your own life, but never fall on the belief that everything you need is all about money. There are simple joys in life that money can't buy, that is happiness with family and the people who are close to us.

This is definitely a good reminder, because some people can take earning and collecting money to the extreme. Everyone should be aware that we're always getting older, and that you have to find a good balance between spending money now on amazing experiences, is something you may not be able to replicate when you get older and less mobile. There's no point hoarding cash so you can retire at 55 or 60, because you may just fall ill or your body might not be as ready for the long haul holiday experience you had planned. Alternatively, you shouldn't waste money on frivolous things because we are being bombarded in the modern world with advertising from every direction that is looking to drain your bank account on junk.

Moderation is very necessary with anything we are doing. As much as you're striving to make ends meet, ensure you take good care of yourself, your immediate family and those you might be in position to help.

While doing this, note that you are not taking care of anybody just so when you have died they will speak good of you. Help people around you because it is the right thing to do. The mistake some persons make is that they are to focused on making money that they don't even want to create any meaningful relationship while they've made all the money, it mostly dawn on them when they are getting old or are at the age of retirement and they now discover that they've wasted all their life pursuing things that they don't even know who they will leave it for.

The goal is to be moderate at the hustle because at the end of the day, no one is leaving this world with any dim.

Of course we need to focus on our goal to be successful one day. Consistency, patience, perseverance and of course us being smart will do the job well done in the future. We just have to love what we are doing to fulfill that goal on a good side.

It is always the mindset of "we do it for them" that justifies their actions of chasing money to provide their preset needs, the future, and their wants. The thing is people are too busy and focused on their work, business, etc. But sometimes you just need to enjoy life and spend your time with your loved ones, cause not all the time money is the solution, well this world runs with money but there's such a priceless thing to do when you are with your family and making memories, we all just have limited time offer in this world. Plus you cannot do all the things you can do with your family when you are already old, you might be rich but you lack experiences and bonding with your family. You can also balance life with work and bonding, they can help you to lessen your stress by distracting with your fam.

I agree, there is this "meme" on social media that I've read many times about working over time and the ones that will remember it are your children. It's okay to work hard and have some extra and side hustles but it is not the life that you should have be dwelling in. You're working for them as you get to inspired and want to give the best life for them but don't forget what's important is your life outside your work. While the good thing about this generation is about everyone is agreeing about work-life balance and companies that do value it have lucky employees and they don't interfere with their employees life after duty.

The irony is, the very things we chase – security, stability – are often found not in material wealth, but in the warmth of connection. The memories we cherish most are rarely about the size of our bank accounts, but about the shared laughter, the quiet moments of connection, the whispered secrets under starlit skies.

It's not about abandoning ambition, but about finding its rightful place in the tapestry of our lives. It's about recognizing that a true life, a life worth living, is a symphony of elements – career, yes, but also love, laughter, the quiet contemplation of a sunset.

This is the world we live in now. Money is more important than everything else. I wish it wasn’t but this system forces you to be like that. And there is no end to this fucking rat race. I know people who have a few million dollars net worth and they still work like a mad man. They just can’t have enough of it but most importantly they can’t say “enough”. They can’t quit their job/business and enjoy their wealth. They work endlessly till they wear out and when they do, it is all over. All those work for nothing. They spend their last days in a hospital room waiting to die. Sometimes less is more.

when someone chases something and forgets the people closest to them, it means they have lost something valuable in their life. it's true that money is the most important thing now and many people fight to get it, but the people closest to us and those we love are priceless assets that cannot be compared with the money we get.

we might be able to get a lot of money, but when we lose the people closest to us and those we love in the process of getting that money, does that money have any meaning anymore? money is only temporary, and don't focus too much on looking for it so that we lose the opportunity to build good relationships with the people we love.

That is true, if we consider the present time, most of us are leaving some important things of life into the back and running after success and money. One of these is not spending time with family or friends. And these things are slowly turning us from humans to machines, emotions & love are going away from us.
Recently I saw a report that the fear of expense among the Japanese is reducing marriage and having children, indicating that the elderly population in Japan will increase in the next few decades. So I also want to say that both money and success are necessary, but we must not go away from some facts for which we are human.

We now live in a world where we are busy making money and making ends meet. We have to in order to survive. The competition is so high that sometimes we lose ourselves in that process. We are busy making a successful life so that no one related to us won't suffer. Having a decent bank balance, having a property or having a car. Working to the extreme to make that dream come true.

But in that process, are we giving enough attention to our surroundings? People close to us or our loved ones, are we giving enough time to them? When we are gone, what will they say about us? Or even if someone left us forever, will we have enough memory to remember them?

Earning money and being successful is important in life. But never forget who you are and the people around you. Money is not everything. It is important to survive but make sure to take some time to bond with people around you. It will also help reduce the anxiety or stress that you are having because of all that work.

Trust the process, you will be successful one day for sure. But never lose your own soul in that process.
