Entitlement:
It seems we have become so
entitled, that we start believing we DESERVE to be rich? This is
funny to me, because I too was apart of this entitled philosophy. Even
the poorest Americans suffer from entitlement issues. The middle
class, if there still is one, has become angry because they say the
rich are getting greeder. I believe this is true for the rich, the
middle class, and the poor in America. Everyone expects to be given
financial freedom without “working hard.” I have grown to
appreciate “hard work.” It is a delightful pleasure to me these
days to know that I can accomplish anything I want through “hard
work.” God rested on the seventh day!
You Can't Give Up on Working Hard:
You say, “Leon, I am angry
about the hand I was dealt, and this hard work babble you speak of is
not true, look at lottery winners, etc, etc.” I understand there
are a few people who luck up but you are not that person! So if you
are not that person, then what do you have left? You have “hard
work.” What happens if you give up on “working hard?” If you
give up on it then you will become poorer and weaker! I personally
cannot afford to give up on the term, “working hard.” Giving up
would make me to cynical which would only impede my progress. There
are people who don't have the luxury of complaining and giving up;
because they need to eat, they shake their heads at your spoiled and
entitled attitude!
It takes time to get
wealthy:
Never avoid “hard work.”
It teaches you things you'd never learn if avoided. Hard work is a
seed you plant, and very few people understand this concept. The
bible says, “study the ant, you sluggard!” So remember, if you
ever get negative feelings and think that your hard work is not
paying off just remember, what else do you have if you give up on
hard work? Its a slow process to gain financial freedom when you
choose hard work as the pathway!
