      @-_*SlickySlickDo* _- Maybe because money is intrinsically worthless and very rich people should somehow smell that? So they invest in expensive building, but their value is instable too as you saw in 2008, cars and whatever... but everything in the end will be reduced to the value of money. You can't use 1000 houses yourself but you can get money for them, by selling or renting. Now what is the problem with money? Capitalism is built on debts that reach insane amounts these days and any year there can be a global financial crisis again. The more money you own, the more you will lose and there is just no meaningful way to spend it beside donating.

    • @paulgoogol2652
      @paulgoogol2652 5 лет назад

      @-_*SlickySlickDo* _- doesn't your state offer welfare? in our society we depend on money for the most basic things, so there is a real worth for money related to necessary things you can gain and use... like I said. The problem with money arises with its scaling. You can live buying a cake everyday so the money for a cake each day is fine but you don't need 1000 cakes for yourself. The scaling of virtual money and dept has by far surpassed buyable goods in the real world and this lost connection will hurt our system very badly if it is not addressed somehow.

    As an entrepreneur...I approve of this message. Not many are cut out to be risk takers, leaders, people who hold a great deal of responsibility. Money does not make you happy. Once you have a bit...you have to figure out how to keep it and make it grow. That is not easy in any way. I wish someone taught me that lesson. And yes... pursue what makes you happy and or comfortable. Not everyone is a born leader/risk taker. There needs to be teachers, service providers, farmers, carpenters, people in trades, mechanics, doctors, artists, etc.
    50% of this experience we call life is based on your attitude (loving others / having goals / believing in yourself / having a positive attitude when most can't or won't) The rest is hard work, planning, patience, and a little luck.
    A wise man once told me: I didn't know that when I left my job to become the boss that I would have a hundred more bosses once I owned my own business.

How cool would it be to have an IDEA for a new product, design it, prototype it, get someone to manufacture it, and let other people buy it and resell it to millions of people making you money. You can give hundreds of people a job. Wow! NOW your life has impact. Screw the lambo! Do something meaningful.

Money will come if you're doing something that you love, that can be being a CEO, music, drawing, dancing, selling or whatever is your passion.
    When you do something that you love, you always try to become better in what you're doing, that will make you money.

      Would you not agree there are jobs you would absolutely despise doing or jobs you just wouldn't do well? His point is know your limits, know what you are and what you aren't. There is no "Everybody" job that everyone can do, life isn't that simple. You gotta get out there and search for a passion and fire that rages on where other jobs simmered and faded. The goal isn't necessarily to find a job where you are jolly all day, but to avoid one that could cause depression.

      @stormtraders 5 лет назад +17

      I get your point, what he means to say is that what will make you happy wont make someone else happy. The fact that you make 20mil doesnt make you more happy in essence. It depends on the situation. If true freedom makes you very happy then there are other ways to achieve that. What is freedom? The thing is that if you are linking this to a lot of money you will always have the truth that if you make this amount or that amount you are finally free and happy. Thats crazy to think because when that moment comes you realize nothing changed you just live a more comfortable lifestyle.
      Just like fb and all social media they show you all the material things and freedom lifestyle. But the truth is really that all great entrepeneurs really dont have alot of time. They are all..ways.. working. Do you think the ceo’s of tesla and apple have an easy life? Hell no, these people hardly sleep and with companies like samsung, apple and macintosh those people are always fixing problems and are dealing with a minimal of 10 lawsuits at a time. Just to get everyone of their back. I guess what i’m trying to say is to dont link your happines and freedom in the amount of money that will set your free. Just focus on the goals and legacy’s you want to achieve and the money will be an byproduct of that. Seek happines and freedom now. For all you ever have is this moment.

      The fisherman is appreciative and grateful for what he has and the billionaire can’t be satisfied with himself because he is always trying to get more and more and more. I think the message you are supposed to get is that tangible things such as money will not cause intangible things such as a sense of happiness and self acceptance to occur. He is trying to say that money isn’t a bad thing, but you shouldn’t go into entrepreneurship for the sole purpose of making money but instead should into if it really gives you a sense of purpose and direction. He is also saying you shouldn’t be ashamed if you don’t go into entrepreneurship because it means you “aren’t hungry enough” or “don’t want it bad enough”, it just means you don’t need to be an entrepreneur in order to have a sense of purpose, which is okay. In all honesty I think he’s right, it’s better to have a life where you making 40k a year and you live within your means and have family and friends that support and love you than to make 400k and be working 24/7 and have no one to share it with. Some people are like me and other prefer the latter, but regardless it isn’t a reflection of who you are as a person because if you do what you love to do and wake up every day appreciating and enjoying yourself than regardless of your socioeconomic status that is a success.

    @PaBlo-io3sd 5 лет назад +2

    This message can be applied to anything in life, not just when choosing between being or not being an entrepreneur!
    As Alex said, if you engage in something, whether it be entrepreneurship, sport, any activity which you don't truly enjoy for the sake of itself but you do it because it's mainstream or tie certain expectations / emotions to it - well, then everyday will feel like a job or chore.
    You'll wake up with that thought of 'oh god, another day', without drive and hunger to practice and build.
    I have experienced it first hand with sports when I was younger.
    Each year a different sport - new team, new patterns, new drills,
    which were fun to begin with.
    But just a few months in, when I became more used to the practice, and the overwhelming feeling of starting a new sport was gone, I'd quit.
    I'd quit because I started the sport out of 'wrong' reasons - I saw a cool movie about it, or it was mainstream, all in all, I could've focused on one thing that I truly enjoyed, but now that time is gone and years of potential practice are gone.
    Anyways, what I want to say is the following:
    Whatever it is that you enjoy doing and gives you pleasure - practice it, build it, execute it, make a living out of it - but do it because you want it and have an inner drive to do it.
    Not because it's mainstream and cool. Because you'll just waste time, potential satisfaction and profit!

If I wasn't successful it just means the industry wasn't a good fit for me and I need to change careers. I am not willing to work extra hard just to be an entrepreneur and not have a boss, I don't care if I have what it takes I refuse to do it.

    You not right nor wrong... life is all about finding what work your journey(happiness, purposes and fulfillment) I started from 2012. And now in a 9 to 5. But you know what i hate now, is waking up to a job working a boss i hate(how he leads) do a job that i hate.. I was more happy doing my business no matter my income.

    I’m starting a business, I’m not doing it because I want to own a Ferrari have millions of dollars (because I don’t want to own a Ferrari... I’m an Ford F-150 guy) I am an entrepreneur because I enjoy challenges, I want to work with veteran owned businesses expand their reach and their dreams. I like working early in the morning and well into the night... I get fulfillment out of what I’m doing (I haven’t made a dime yet but I love every minute of this journey)

    A lot of people think being an entrepreneur is stressful bcs of the early uncertainties with friends, family and self. They have a limited midset . people need to know that you can't force entrepreneurship on your self by creating sth you are not passionate and ready to sacrifice for. But the end of the road is better than the beginning bcs it reveals the amount of work we but in. But still if you have a dream that can change the world don't let us it die, find a way. Either on your own if no one believe or with someone that actually sees what you see. Keep the work going 💪💪💪

I think people forget that entrepreneurship has always been around, the only difference is that the collective mind decided it is the cool new thing to do, because we have all this tech gurus and social media moguls who everybody is idolizing. Before that everyone wanted to be a soldier,lawyer,doctor or actor.Its typical high school mentally, everyone wants to be the cool kid, with little regard for their natural inclinations.

    The problem that I have is that I am 26 and I don’t know what I want to be. I went to college and now I work in an accounting department as an accounts payable coordinator and it’s a chill job. I used to work as a fund accountant and I hated it. I wasn’t good and it was stressful but now my job is chill and easy for me but I don’t feel satisfied at all. I feel that I’m wasting my time away here doing a job that’s too chill and too easy. I’m just at the point where I don’t know where I wanna go from here. I feel pigeonholed and it sucks. I feel like I need to change as an individual. I’m always watching these self help videos and reading book listening to podcast and it gives me perspective but not much really changes. I’m so hard on myself to the point where it may be detrimental. I want change now but change doesn’t happen overnight. It takes time. It takes work. I put in the work but I still put myself down and wonder why I haven’t changed yet. Patience is key. I ignore all the good stuff in my life and focus on the few bad. I have to realize that I’m blessed first and foremost. Waking up in the morning is a privilege cause some ppl don’t get to experience that great gift of waking up. Looking life at that way puts my mind at ease. It puts a smile on my face. I’m smiling while writing this. Sometimes I feel that as you get older it’s harder to learn new things. Going to college gave me a perspective that the major you choose is what you have to do for the rest of your life. That’s not true at all. You can do whatever you want. You don’t need college to learn something new. That is a perspective I’m working to adopt. Our minds is always capable of learning new things as long as we put in the work to learn it just as we did in college. Feeing stuck sucks but I must realize that I control the situation I’m in. Loving yourself is key. That’s how you acquire that happiness. At that point you don’t care what other people think of you. I find myself living for other ppl, tryna please them and satisfying their needs over mine. It’s ok to be a little selfish and care for yourself. Life is what you make it so let’s make the best of it. I hope each and one of you find what your looking for.

  • @Bylov6812

    I first thought about business like the only way to make money and allow myself anything I want, but I didn't understand that EVERYTHING has a cost. Either you enjoy the sacrifice or you will regret for the rest of your life the time you have wasted...have a goal, improve yourself and find a way to reach the goal. Once you have a set goal and you have set the deadline of that goal, you just have to find the way to reach it. Nothing stays the same, this world is changing rapidly and if you want to succeed or survive in the business, you have to match the pace or you get skipped. Simple question: Can you do it? Yes or no? There is nothing in between, be decisive and swift. Read the goddamn books that every successful salesman pushes you to read because they know it works! If you don't like the idea of self-improvement or striving for better future or whatever is your goal, well...leave your dreams on your shelf like those books you borrowed but didn't bother to return to the rightful owners, people, who show the way forward. No one cares about your past, how much you made or when, people care about NOW and either you procure them the solution to their problem NOW or never. One last thing: I am nobody and no one has to read this, but know this...right mindset will help you stay afloat, right knowledge will push you over the limits you once had. Thank you for reading this, if this has value.

    At the end of the day the only solution is follow your passion and make it true. Your passion is what will cause that fulfillment to come, for many of us we want to be entrepreneurs because our passions aren’t a source of money & aren’t good enough for us. What is entrepreneurship for me, is following my passion,helping others along the way, and the money isn’t even a goal of mine but I know if I truly work hard and help others with my business and God will provide and the money will just be a byproduct. So no the money won’t make me happy but it will help bring joy and freedom because I can also help my family while helping others. Not everyone needs to be an entrepreneur but for the right reasons it’s the best thing for some of us.

    Wealth only improves the quality of material things, it's only a material upgrade. Only you standard goes higher, problems are swaped but still exist, cars get expensive, house gets bigger, holidays become more often, when everythings is BOUGHT easy the charm wears out soon and thats when it hits your mind and you resort to drugs and get depressed pretending you're happy.
    Real happiness comes from seeing others happy after your intervention, improving others lives, giving them what they could'nt have, helping them through hard times, sharing, giving smiles. "Only when you are poor at heart you wish to become wealthy, a rich heart is never poor."
