I have made it my job to help the next generation avoid survival struggle but it is a tough thing to do.

That is why I have been trying to learn the psychological reasons behind poverty and I have found many reasons but I will tell you one of them today.

I always say that if you're poor, your children have 80% chance of being poor and19% chance of being middle class and 1% chance of being rich.

Here is why?

Research has found something in the brain and they call it Mirror Neuron. It is what triggers you to do whatever people around you do.

Mirror Neuron makes you copy or reflect what you hear, see, touch smell or feel, especially from people you respect or love.

Let me prove my point.

Oh wait! Let me scratch my head before I continue.

See, I am sure you're definitely having the urge to scratch something or you just scratched your head.

Do you know why that happened?

It because I said I wanted to do it and your Mirror Neuron influenced you to copy me.

Just like that, behavior that influence poverty are copied from our environments, teachers, friends and parents without knowing it.

Every day, I try to unlearn many of the poverty mindset I have copied because of where I was born and school I went to.

The best solution to this copying thing is changing your environment. Yes! It is scientifically proven to help.

But you don't need to change you offline environment if you can't afford it but you can easily change your online environment.

Or meet people you want to be like once in a while.

Follow and be friends with people you want to be like online, without knowing it, you copy their habit.

Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

In the near future, I would take helping people avoid survival struggles seriously. But for now, let me save myself.

Thanks for coming to my Tedtalk.

True! Our faith psychologically gives us the energy we need to get better provided we use it properly.

You have a point,your circle drives you or surpresses you.

You're right about changing your environment, be it physical, online, mental, or even spiritual.

Aps. Joshua Selman in his teaching titled "The Law of Mental Transformation," said that your pocket is a reflection of what you have in your mind and that's literally true.

Reading and meditating on words in The Bible and other books written by people who have achieved what you hope to achieve is the best way to transform the mind.

As for changing your physical environment, a relocation to Canada can do a lot of good and I have valuable information on the topic.

Start taking appropriate actions today.

That is another reasonable angle. Cheers!

It because I said I wanted to do it and your Mirror Neuron influenced you to copy me.

I did not scratch any part of my body.

Hello!

You're right but don't you think poor people have issues they don't share too?

Rubbish

Knowing God isn't an escape from Poverty. Lazarus knew God but was poor

The Rich guys in this Country didn't know God

If you're poor, forget about raising family; stop copying people around you who are poor and have 5 children.

If you are among 9 millionaires you'll be the 10th, same with been around 9 poor people



Someone said this Sha I think it make sense

So that will cure poverty...

Ahh...ah...ah...

You just teach people how to forever wallow in the pool of poverty.

Meanwhile, @op, you are right, but me i find it difficult to do what others are doing, if it is not self influenced, i will never do it.

i create the rule, others follow.

Nonsense..error in your teaching

Matt 5:45

that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.

You become the people who you stay around.

I can vividly remember sometime that if i spend 2 hours online, then one and half hours was spent viewing cars.

So..

That is strong.
