There is no eternal depression or eternal boom. There is no everlasting suffering or peace. Everything follows a cyclical pattern of good times and bad times. The problem is that I can’t control the situation on my own. This means I need to change my attitude and behavior according to the circumstances. During a recession, we should prepare for prosperity, and during times of prosperity, we should prepare for recession. Our goal is not to guess or imagine but to stay aware of changing circumstances and their consequences. Do not settle for the current situation; instead, read and prepare for even minor changes. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
To build wealth, you must live on your current income, not your future income. Using a credit card allows you to live in the present relying on future income, whereas using a debit card or cash enables you to live in the present with current income. To achieve prosperity, you need to have compound interest working in your favor. Living in the present with future income means depending on the compound interest of others , while living in the present with current income allows you to benefit from compound interest yourself. Don’t live in the present by discounting the future. Don’t discount your time; give it a premium. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
