Here’s a tip: No matter how much money we might acquire it is not going to be guaranteed. Here’s an example for you to consider.
Many people are aware of the great Kennedy fortune. Some might even agree the family has a legacy. The catch is that most folks don’t know that it was Joe Kennedy who got things rolling (as a financier). Most do however know John F. Kennedy. An interesting paradox is that it was primarily things outside of money that he’s most known for wouldn’t you agree?
So here’s the point I am getting at… We all have within us the unique ability to build something that will long outlast our time on this earth. Things that can offer us true peace, as we grow older — and even outlast our very earthly existence. This is based off of the simple saying “we can’t take it with us”… No matter how much wealth you have the simple fact still remains you can’t take it with you! Now here’s what we can take with us.
The time that we spend with our friends or family, each time we take throughout the day not only to give, but also to show another how to provide for themselves. When we take the time to slow down a bit during our busy day and simply take in the moment. These are just a few of the things that can have a lasting effect. Increasing your income is important, but do yourself a favor and don’t neglect the “smaller” things in life. It takes all things — both big and small — to say you’ve truly experienced a well lived life.
It’s your life, LIVE BIG
