Have you ever thought of what kind of emotion you have about money when many of us easily expose these two extreme emotions – fear, and greed? Why fear? We fear because we are afraid of one day being poor and living a deplorable life. So why be greedy? It is easy to explain, it is because we don’t want to be poor, so we crave a lot of money seeing it as powerful to secure us a comfortable life, thinking greedy is right. With that, we obliviously become a slave to money torturing our real nature.

In fact, what we actually are is the most important, and what actually inside us matters the most. In terms of money in our lives, we only have to make the most effort to equip well ourselves to earn it for a living but not crazily pursuing it thinking it is powerful. When money is powerful, evil things will happen, it is the same as when one is powerful, one will become evil. Furthermore, when you pursue money with a perception of thinking it is powerful, what you are and what is inside you will be instantly razed. Money is not powerful but just needed in modern society. Remember that the most powerful thing is what you are and what is inside you that makes you good, kind, and strong.

We are better to learn how to be poor instead of rich so that we will not be destroyed when one day our money is gone. Money can leave us anytime. Live simpler so that you can get rid of a fond dream of owning a huge amount of money needed in living an extravagant life that is – insane – to be a normal person. Not a few kinds of research have already shown us that many billionaires getting problems living a happy life. They find themselves empty and hollow inside but just money, the reason is they don’t have time to think about life and love because their time is all spent on making money with meetings and business, what’s worse, their mental state is always tense with their brains full of money related stuff.

Money is a servant and we are the master of it. Go learn to establish a proper relationship with it and it will serve us well. Everything in our lives talks about relationships. Think about it!
