Yesterday's post looked at the evolution of money, and money as a concept that is not a myth but rather real. And, since it is real, money affects our lives in many ways. Money is through which we pay our bills, EMIs and rents, we buy our basic necessities and our luxuries, we use it to educate ourselves and we save it to create a sense of security. But the strangest part is that the more we save it, instead of feeling more secure, the more we feel unsafe!
If we look deeper into this matter, we can sense and realise that while money is very much needed for our future security, we keep accumulating it more and more, assuming that the more we save it the more scared we would be, and then a whole lot of energy goes in keeping it safe and being worried what if somebody snatches it from me.
At this point, it is better to remind ourselves that money is a concept and is a direct byproduct of the efforts we put in to materialise our skills to benefit humankind.
At this point, it is better to remind ourselves that money is a concept and is a direct byproduct of the efforts we put in to materialise our skills to benefit humankind. Which means that as long as we have some special skill, the money shall keep rolling.
Isn't it better then, to invest in developing and refining new skills? Wouldn't that allow us to overcome life challenges and the shortcomings? In this realisation there lays no fear towards, about or of having or losing money. Our relationship with money gets altered...
