Do Money and Success Change us

“Money and success don't change people; they merely amplify what is already there” by Will Smith. 

A lot of people say:”Only if I had such money or success, I would do this and that”, or “I would be different”, “I would help people”, “I would give to charity”. The fact is that they are lying, probably without knowing that. Why? Because they do not know themselves! These exterior things won’t change you inside out, but will simply bring about things that are already there in your mind and soul. So, search your heart to find out what kind of person you are and whether you want to be like that. Because when money and success come they will bring what is best and worst in you.

The Sword or the Spirit

“There are only two forces in the world, the sword and the spirit. In the long run the sword will always be conquered by the spirit” by Napoleon Bonaparte. 

Kings, armies, dictators, empires and others bodies of power have always relied on advanced guns and weapons to stay in power, conquer others and rule the world. However, a much stronger force is the spirit that does not give up, but keeps on fighting. Eventually, the spirit overcomes, because it operates in the supernatural, whereas all other human weapons are physical. We have to remember that the spirit always rules over the matter.

Love Overwhelms

“Romance is thinking about your significant other, when you are supposed to be thinking about something else“ by Nicholas Sparks. 

Those who have been in love know the experience. You may have all the worries of the world on your shoulders, yet if you are in love, they do not really bother you. You can only think about her/him. That’s very powerful. In essence there practically isn’t a stronger feeling than love. On the other hand, it is priority number one in anyone’s life. We may not admit that, but what we really search for in things, money, joys of the world is fulfillment that only true love can give.

Never Too Old for Another Dream

“You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream” by C.S. Lewis. 

Since life is all about change and moving forward you are never too old to think of something new. The greatest achievers have lived all their lives like that. You should not believe anybody who tries to convince you that your best days are in the past. Nothing could be further from the truth. They are ahead! Only, if you believe it! Dare to believe it. You will not have a single boring day if you make that choice. The best is yet to come!
