You Cannot Be Poor!

You know? Growing up, I never saw financial independence as important. I just felt, "Oh well, I have my parents here. They’re providing for me, and I’m literally enjoying my life." But now, as a growing girl, I see the relevance of being independent financially.

Every day, I sit down to think about how I can make a big impact in my generation. I want to make a change, so I started writing and making videos on YouTube. I want to impact people positively 😊. I love making people happy. Although I might not be the main reason for their happiness, I just love seeing happy people. It makes me feel satisfied.

Believe in your dreams, because as you do, it'll happen gradually... Don't be too scared to dream big. But to actually achieve that goal, that dream, you have to start small. Laziness is another factor that affects success. Don't think it'll just happen without you doing any work.

There's a law that talks about a force being exerted on an object for it to move, kind of like Newton's First Law of Motion. You can't expect something great when you didn't work for it.

I've observed that some people don't think they're meant for success. They'll say,

"Oh well, I don't think I'm going to be this or that..." –

that's such a mediocre mindset.

I remember telling a friend that I wouldn't visit my former senior high school until I've made it in life. I said, "I want to arrive in my flashy car, with me coming down in my designer suit and sophisticated shades." She said, "Vivid imagination." I told her she could think what she wanted, but I know who I am, where I see myself going, and where I'm going.

Don’t let anyone’s mediocre mindset ruin your future. After all, you’re the one to live your life. No one will live it for you.

My mom and I were chatting today, and I told her I can never be poor! 😊 She said, "That's right, my baby girl!" There's just this power in believing in what you can do – that's self-belief. If you're too scared to see yourself as a prosperous person, just remember that poverty can affect anyone, regardless of their work ethic.
Look at yourself in the mirror and shout,

"I cannot be poor!"

Say it until you believe it. There's power in self-belief.

This article is meant for someone out there who’s in doubt about their potential and dreams. I hope I was able to ignite a spark in that special someone.

Bye for now ✨✨
