Is keeping the status quo keeping you back?
Is there such a thing as being too content?
Take these three scenarios:
- low income, high school degree, 2years of college, working at hardware store, getting married in spring, looking forward in starting a family right away
- medium-high income, college and master, software industry, interested in expensive side hobby or second business
- multimillionaire on the level of Donald trump and Oprah Winfrey
Of these three, who do you feel should be working to keep everything exactly as it is?
Who should keep their income, their job level, the size of their home, their circle of friends, their opinions and beliefs–exactly the same? Of these three, who should consider a lateral change over a promotion with addition training, growth and income opportunities?
Would it be the multimillionaire that already has everything anyone could ever imagine? Or would it be the medium or low income group, because they don’t have any spare funds to explore and experiment with (you have to have money to make money…)?
It’s difficult to answer because it is not the individual situation that dictates our response but our emotional and belief system. People that believe they can do, have and be anything they can imagine are often both very appreciative of what they currently have —- and are excitedly anticipating more and greater things. They are always exploring and expanding.
It’s rarely the size of their pocket but the wealth of their confidence-in-self that dictates the life they have designed for themselves.
