How Your Mindset Is Hindering You From Being Successful by Tilda001(op): 9:24am On Nov 10, 2020
Most of us are like birds in cages. We really want to get out but we are so comfortable with the little our owners (parents) feed us and we are so comfortable in our zone while there are some that are being pulled back by the other birds (family and society).

They are scared of being killed by the preys or hunters, failure, taking risk andu hunger.

Parent and pressure keep holding and shielding us from the fear of the unknown.

Life is not as easy as you think. You will never grow if you're scared of failure and taking risk.

Failing is normal, taking risk is normal, crying is normal, being hurt is normal but the abnormal and most painful thing is losing opportunities.

Some of us are so scared of getting rich because they think they will be hated, envied and even killed by village people while most girls are so scared of being wealthy because they don't want to be tagged as prostitutes.

It's even worse when a lady is richer than her spouse. We really need to change our perspective and mindset or we will keep moving back ward.

A lot of females have been made to believe they won't get a responsible man if they are wealthy and they keep praying for a rich and successful men.

While some of us think the only way to make it in life is to go to school, study the best course, work very hard,graduate and work in a multi millionaire company.

They start giving us emotional talk and shouting '' school na scam'' when it does not work out. I know the government is the major cause of unemployment but there are some graduates that should Still be in secondary school.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying you should not study hard or go to school but make sure but make sure you invest in yourself (soft and hard skill but not yahoo).

There's no way you won't be successful if you're intelligent because you know how to use your skills in the right way.

Aim to be successful, read books, make researches and model rich and intelligent people (not greedy politicians) and your life won't be far from them.
