There are three universal reasons for working.
Survive -- "to meet your basic living needs."
Save -- "to go beyond your basic needs and expand your life."
Serve -- "to make a contribution to the world around you."
"Most people spend their lives focusing on the first. A smaller number focus on the second. But those rare few who are truly successful -- no just financially, but genuinely successful in all aspects of their lives -- keep their focus squarely on the third."
A lot of us nowadays just go to work and work and work. Their most common reason, to pay the bills, to eat, to drink, basically to survive. Day by day, month to month and years gone by. Their goals are still to work to survive and save a bit for leisure and nicer things. Come to think of it, if your passion and goals in Life is helping and serving people, you'll be striving more than surviving and saving to help others who are much more in need.
Let's go down to debt, most of us here in North America are introduce in getting debt because of that we develop the mentality of buy now, pay later. Especially if your parents started that way, you'll end up doing the same unless you seek out for the right people who do have that financial vested interest in you that if your financially hurt they are too.
The three above are basic and straight forward. The problem is you don't have any of those.
How will you serve if you don't even save?
How will you save if you don't have enough to survive?
How will you survive if you don't have a means of surviving (job)?
and How about changing your thinking of building an asset that will replace your jobs, of being a full time mom and dad, daddy-daughter days, mommy-son bonding days, six Saturdays and Sunday every week and most of all retire your parents before they reach the retirement age.
Its a matter of choice, faith and determination.
Do you have what it takes to go beyond surviving, saving and serving.
Its starts with you.
