There are women who want to have a husband and there are women who want to be wives. Go for the wives.
If you can't tell the difference, you've got A LOT of maturing to do.
Woke up today. Lungs working. Sun came back. Heart still beating. Countless things already went right before the day even started. That is not small. Most people chase what they want and never stop to appreciate what is already working in their favor.
Appreciate where you are. Keep moving towards where you are going. Those two things are not opposites. Gratitude stops you from taking what you have for granted. Hunger stops you from getting comfortable. You need both.
Most people only call themselves blessed when money's involved. It's way deeper than that. If you're healthy, can breathe without pain, move your body, think clearly, and wake up with another chance to grow, you're already beyond blessed.
I heard someone once say,
"one of your siblings will attend all of your funerals, one sibling will attend none & one sibling will have none of you at theirs"
Be shameless about your hustle, nobody will feed you if you go broke.
As long as you are not doing anything wrong you should not be shy about promoting your products, services, or job.
Once you realize that anything can happen, sickness, death, lose your job.
Literally, anything in the blink of an eye, you become very humble. Tables turn and that's how crazy life can get.
Always pray, stay humble, and be thankful.
Many of us don't even care about dismantling the system that exploits us, we just want to be rich enough to survive the system and exploit others. Lack of class consciousness will be the death of us.
Money gives you the freedom to make mistakes and still survive. You can fail 10 times and come back stronger every single time if you have money. Without it, one mistake can destroy your entire life.
Your mother loves you simply because you exist. Your woman loves you for what you provide, what you conquer, and what you become. One is unconditional. The other is earned and can be lost.
