Money as a Human Construct
Money is not an inherent reality but a human invention, similar to other concepts like latitude, longitude, and nation-states. It evolved from simple exchanges of value to bartering, and eventually to symbolic representations like shells, coins, and digital currency. Recognizing money as a creation allows individuals to consider the best ways to exchange values.
Focus on Values and Sharing
Instead of fixating on money, focus on what you value and how you can share it with others. Prioritize having fun, engaging with enjoyable people, and making a positive impact on the world. Approaching life this way eliminates the feeling of scarcity. Some young entrepreneurs are overly focused on financial exits and accumulating wealth, neglecting the importance of life's deeper values.
Mortality and True Priorities
Being aware of one's mortality shifts the focus away from material wealth and towards joy, love, empathy, and compassion. By prioritizing these values and making a difference, financial abundance naturally follows. The key is to enjoy the process of exchanging values and contributing to the world.
