As I have continued to grow and climb the
ladder from one level to another, I have come
across people who have planted a particular
seed in my life. From my religious life
to political life, academic life to social life, I have met several groups of
people whose perspective and understanding of life has always imparted a particular watermark
that remains engraved in me as we part ways with them.
Based on so many categories, today let
share with you some of these traits based on attitude towards costs. Those who
live real life and manage their own
financial services will agree with me that life is about costs;
1. I have these
friends who whenever I share with them anything I am going to do, the immediate answer is
usually, "Aluora you will make it." They demonstrate a certain
threshold of confidence in my capability that they always believe it is
achievable. I always march ahead and go to face the situation. These are the
friends I always go back to request for further support whenever am out of
ideas in seeing my goal go through. Most of these friends will attest that
whenever I tell them I am going to do anything, they are always prepared that I will be back.
2. The second category is friends whom
whenever I tell them I am going to do so and so, the next question is usually,
"How much will it cost?" This is a category of friends who do not judge the results of the project first.
They value it in reference to expenditure.
They will end up cautioning me to ensure I have enough money. They even go
ahead to warn me not to return. These friends are so good that I always tell
them even when I want to kill an ant.
3. The third category is these friends
whenever I share with them what I wish to do,
the next answer is a response in the form
of a question, "And where will you get all that money from?" Yes,
they value the cash, they may appreciate
the value of the end results, but these friends are
so pessimistic about my poor state that
they are sure I cannot make a single step in life. They are always scared that
they may have to spend on me. I love these friends, and I always report to them
results of the project at the finishing stage. Telling them before commencing
your project will demoralize you then finally fail.
But note one thing, I hate none of these
friends, I love them all. They help in shaping my wisdom in one way or another
and contribute to continued success. They are all a source of motivation.
Eventually, I
count all of them among my friends.
