Abundant Wealth: Change Your Outlook on Money

The concept of money is people's fundamental views and attitudes towards money. Because everyone's outlook on life and values ​​are different, the concept of money is also different.

There is such a story, three priests, British, American and Jewish, by chance, they sat together. The American priest asked the other two priests: "What do you do with the money in the church offering box?"

The British, who had always been conservative, replied: "To be fair, I will draw a straight line on the ground and put all the money in the offering box. After throwing it into the sky and landing on the ground, the one on the right of the line belongs to God and is used as the fund for the operation of the church; the one on the left of the straight line is counted as my salary, and I keep it for living expenses.” The

pragmatic and frank American priest listened to this . The British priest replied with a smile: "I'm similar to you, I draw a circle on the ground, of course, the circle can't be drawn too big! Then I throw the money in the offering box into the sky, and what falls in the circle will be offered. Give it to God, and the money that falls outside the circle is my private money."

At this time, the Jewish priest, who regards money as his life, couldn't help but said, "It's so troublesome, I don't need to draw any lines or circles, my The method is very simple, just throw the believers’ money into the sky, and whatever is left in the sky belongs to God of course, and whatever falls on the earth belongs to me.”

A few years later, the three priests met again, and they met again. One time I mentioned the money in the church offering box, and the result is: because the believers donate generously, the British priest has more money in the offering box and more money in the private room; American priests because the believers are stingy, the money in the offering box is less, and the private room is more. There is not much money; Jewish priests often have empty donation boxes because of their unwillingness to donate money.

The reason why the three priests have such different fates is because of their different views on money. What kind of money concept, what kind of life will be. A correct and positive view of money will naturally lead to a happy and prosperous life; a wrong and distorted view of money will only make life progressively worse. There is a sentence in the masterpiece "La Traviata" by Alexandre Dumas of France: "Money is a good servant, but a bad master." It means that money should be your servant, not the slave of money. People who value money too much and are too fond of small profits often become slaves of money, and are led by money all their lives; while people who treat money rationally and manage their money in a healthy and orderly way tend to have prosperous fortunes and keep their wealth in their lifetime. Take control in your own hands.

What kind of person are you? If you are not good at managing money, please change your view of money as soon as possible! Make yourself the master of money! Get rid of the problem of wanton profligacy, change the habit of coveting small profits, and establish a correct view of money, in order to build a higher and stronger tower of wealth.

So, how to establish a correct view of money?

First of all, it is necessary to have a correct understanding of money.

In real life, many people lack the correct understanding of money. Some people take money too seriously, that is, the so-called "money worship" and "money first", as long as they can get money, they can do whatever they can. Influenced by "money is omnipotent", these people advocate that "money can make a ghost run the mill" and "money decides everything". There are also some people who take money too lightly, say that money is the root of all evil, and abandon the pursuit of money. These are all misconceptions about money. Money, as a tool of our life, is created by us and serves us. We should be the masters of money and let money play its best role. Remember, money is not everything, but nothing is impossible without it. For us, what matters is not money, but happiness, the happiness that comes from the heart after satisfying the basic needs of life.

Second, we must establish a correct concept of consumption.

The correct concept of consumption is to ensure that expenditure and consumption are proportional, not to overspend and not to splurge, and to have a fixed balance. The correct concept of consumption is the basic guarantee of financial management. It requires us to establish a sense of thrift, consume in moderation, spend every penny on the edge, and enjoy the fun of consumption. A person who does not have the correct concept of consumption, spends all day, and lives without restraint. After all, he will only sit and eat. Furthermore, it is clear that a gentleman loves money in a proper way.

The so-called wealth of a gentleman is obtained in a proper way, which means that a gentleman should pay attention to the way of making money when he loves wealth. Just like Fan Li, a statesman, strategist and industrialist in the Spring and Autumn Period of ancient China, who helped the King of Yue, Goujian, Xing Yue to destroy Wu. Family wealth, who used his own wisdom to earn wealth that can rival the country, is called "the ancestor of ancient merchants"; and He Shen, a corrupt official in China's Qing Dynasty, used his power to embezzle countless treasures and real estate, and owned a lot of money. But it was cast aside and left behind for the ages. Therefore, if a gentleman loves money in a proper way, and abandons the sword of conscience and goes sideways to make money, he will eventually be restless and empty.

Finally, use money in the service of all humanity.

The concept of money is created by human beings, and human beings create money in order to make it serve society and serve all mankind. Everyone is an individual in society and should assume certain social responsibilities. Therefore, it is necessary for us to use money to serve ourselves, the society, and all mankind. If you let money lie at home and sleep in the cash drawer, it will always be just a pile of paper, and it will not reflect its meaning at all. To reflect the greatest value of money, it is necessary to make it "live" and "move". Investing can give fundraisers more funds to start businesses, entrepreneurship can provide society with job opportunities and create material wealth, and philanthropy can solve problems for groups troubled by poverty... In short, using money to serve all mankind is the most extensive Bright most meaningful concept of money.
