It may seem cliche but in this way wealth is a state of mind,.... this is the profound truth at any given moment in any given circumstance.
The Reason for Optimism, Wealth and Prosperity In-Mindset
“There’s nothing more pathetic than a critic…They tell You how it is impossible to do something then You go out and do it.” - paraphrase of Donald J. Trump
Imagine a football field where the underdog team is down by 20 points in the fourth quarter. And the Vegas betting pools are decided against the team….
Or when the polling data aggregation websites are showing Hillary Clinton at 87% chance of victory in 2016…
As Trump went on to say, in these scenarios the critics tell You it’s impossible; but then, the catch is made for the TD, and Trump Wins Michigan and Pennsylvania.
What are other modes of the ‘Dream Big’ mindset. As Founder of Vice News and Proud Boys Gavin McInnes says [Who I frequently watch for satire news coverage] “Americans believe They are dispossessed Millionaires…” that is, Americans believe in and crave success in Their lives regardless of statistics or current material circumstance. This is what makes America Great, and it’s called the American Dream.
I believe in the American Dream…Even though I’m Canadian. And even though I’ve spent My 20s poor and broke with a crippling diagnosis in mental health— however I like Men such as Patrick Bet-David. Who passed the series 7 banking/brokerage license test with a 78% [an extremely high score for the difficulty of this test] without a college education coming out of the army, then going on to become a multimillionaire and podcasting powerhouse. Or Andrew Tate Who went from being a World-champion kickboxer to a deca-multimillionaire casino owner, arguably the Worlds most famous man in a moment.
I do not begrudge salesmen, even though I am nothing like a salesmen. Peter Thiel [billionaire PayPal founder, Facebook funder, and Palantir founder] points out that there are 3 million or more ‘sales’ jobs in America, which seems high if You are a theoretical physicist, scientist, or engineer but seems low for anyone who has actually worked in marketing.
Of all people, I have had the ‘hard knocks’ life to grow cynical and critical and jaded. I am not motivated to simply generate money for money’s sake, but rather to pursue mission and meaning and attain a status and a wealth apportioned to whatever ‘added-value’ I can put into the system.
You may say the system is corrupt, I am weak and there is no positive outcome to be had.
To which I will say ‘You don’t have to believe Me or bank on Me, but don’t tell Me to Quit and go down alongside You.’
As Andrew Tate says “Life is like a game of chess, and You have a best move regardless of circumstance.” This is to show that even if You’re on the dole, or have a major disability or are inter-generationally impoverished there is an optimizing solution or resolve to Your circumstance. As Peterson says additionally, You can pick one thing and improve at it. With the advice of both of these Men, it is even the case that Optimism is a more rational strategy than Pessimism, even if the pessimists are right…Let Me Explain. Optimism is more rational because it will spur You to action..Pessimism is less rational because it cripples You to inaction.
It may seem cliche but in this way wealth is a state of mind, it is the belief that You can Do something about Your present circumstances. Which is the profound truth at any given moment in any given circumstance.
A little anecdote…I was eating at a Chinese restaurant in a nearby city with My Mother after having been to the bookstore. I had a copy of Elon Musk’s new biography next to Me. The Chinese waiter said ‘Oh very nice, Elon Musk!’ And I had a good laugh. Then As I was leaving an Old Chinese Man [a grandfather who was eating with His family] He looked directly at Me and gave Me the nod of approval in sincerity. The Chinese are know to wish You a happy life with wealth and prosperity being figured into Their proverbs and culture.
Even though I don’t agree with Musk on a value or belief spectrum and think that neuralink is potentially evil and space travel is folley at this stage in Our history… there is something breathtaking in the bravado of it all. That is is the visionary Who may make revolutions in technology to aid Humanity [hopefully not to Our vanquish - the debate is still on]. Elon didn’t come from expansive wealth and spent His early startup days sleeping in His office and showering at the YMCA.
I have heard many inputs on Why things can’t be done and Why the circumstances are unfair as undoubtedly they are. My eyes are not closed…. I can see the New World Order just the same as You can.
And Yet as Patrick Bet-David says…He cannot be around those types of people, the critics and naysayers. It’s inimical to His personhood. And I’ve realized How it is opposite to My personhood as well. I may decry the elites and oppression and evil in the World. Yet I will not tolerate I Myself becoming a critic curtailing the dreams of the Young Men in My life; I would want to be an encouraging voice in My own life and the life of others, being aware of danger and injustice, but standing tall against the tide all the same.
In Jesus Name Amen, Pray for Israel.
