Are we really in control?

I always believe in myself. I grew up in a middle-class family with absolute zero financial literacy (Abhi Bhi konsa Kuch pata hai ??). In my childhood money was like a precious thing for me as my parents especially my grandparents, always taught me and my younger brother how hard they work to earn ?545 as the first salary in 1974. These real-life incidents always push my thinking beyond my normal abilities.

Just imagine how hard our parents worked for us and we never relaize or admire their journey.

I always found myself very lucky with money. we always heard Money makes the world go around well this is the half-truth and almost 90% of people still believe this as a full universal truth. In my opinion, money is like an enabler it allows people to obtain what they need to live. But have you ever wondered why money is so much valuable why we all are ready to trade things in exchange for a piece of paper? Well, the answer is very simple as we all know this like gold and other precious metals, money has worth because for most people it represents something valuable.

Before the development of a?medium of exchange—that is, money—people would barter to obtain the goods and services they needed. Two individuals, each possessing some goods the other wanted, would enter into an agreement to trade.

Take a look around you at the lives you envy, the ones that make you boil with resentment, or fill you with insecurity about your own subpar existence: That adorable villa you recently saw in a movie or a top roof penthouse with a swimming pool; the career that?YOU?want (and you should have, what are you doing wrong?); the impeccable wardrobe; the mid-century modern furniture; the international vacations; the time spent flitting between gorgeous hotels or going to boutique fitness classes or (seemingly) not working at all. Maybe it’s simply easing of life indicating that whoever possesses it has been better at this game than you have.

Now the question is why does it feel like everyone has more money than you?

Well, the real truth is overthinking. I myself made a lot of mistakes just because of overthinking. I can't even imagine how the worst can happen to me due to my over-processed decision. I always believe whenever you overthink about anything, you will find yourself in trouble. 99% of the time we develop problems because of one misunderstanding so never let this overthinking take over your thoughts. If you want to get rid of overthinking just start thinking about why you are better than others? (This personally helped me a lot).

Overthinking ruins you. It ruins the situation. And it twists things around. It makes you worry. Plus it just makes everything worst than it actually is.

Don't you think money has a great influence over our lives?

Simple emphasized sentences (NLP) can influence our thoughts. Psychologists who study the impact of wealth and inequality on human behavior have found that money can powerfully influence our thoughts and actions in ways that we’re often not aware of, no matter our economic circumstances. Although wealth is certainly subjective, most of the current research measures wealth on scales of income, job status, or socioeconomic circumstances, like educational attainment and intergenerational wealth.

Now the question arises, is money-making us evil?

The answer is very simple, it's just us, not money.

Most of the time lower-income individuals are likely to judge and stereotype those who are wealthier than themselves, often?judging the wealthy?as being “cold.” (Of course, it is also true that the poor?struggle with their own set?of societal stereotypes.)

Rich people tend to be a source of envy and distrust, so much so that we may even take pleasure in their struggles,?according to?Scientific American University of Pennsylvania?research?demonstrated that most people tend to link perceived profits with perceived social harm. When participants were asked to assess various companies and industries (some real, some hypothetical), both liberals and conservatives ranked institutions perceived to have higher profits with greater evil and wrongdoing across the board, independent of the company or industry’s actions in reality.

Well in the end it's you who decide everything from the first input to the last output it's just you not money. So never let your nonsense thoughts take over your logical abilities. or never let money be the reason to lose anything.

Don’t make money your goal.

You are the writer of your own destiny, Life is full of mysteries so enjoy every adventure of yours and never let anyone else influence your wealthy future.
