When a person is financially strapped, what should they do to turn their situation around?
The primary thing to focus on may be directly seeking opportunities to make money, rather than burying yourself in study, preparing for exams, or working out. After all, the most pressing issue at hand is a lack of money, which needs to be addressed first; otherwise, you may find yourself in a long-term predicament that's hard to escape.
Many people remain poor throughout their lives, with little savings, simply because they are too immersed in the 'preparation stage,' such as studying and self-improvement, yet are reluctant to take actual steps toward making money. When it comes to making money, they find all sorts of excuses to procrastinate, ultimately missing good opportunities and remaining in poverty.
In fact, reading, exercising, traveling, and falling in love are all fine, but there must be a premise—do not overlook the importance of making money. You must confront the reality of poverty and take action to change it; otherwise, you'll only sink deeper.
Speaking of preparing for exams, many people actually want to use it as a way to escape the pressures of reality. But avoidance is not a solution; if you dodge today, you will still have to face it tomorrow. Some people, due to difficulties in finding employment after their undergraduate studies, choose to continue their education, but if they lack a clear plan and blindly study and take exams, they may end up disconnected from society, wasting their youth.
Of course, this does not mean that studying is useless; the key is to be targeted. The goal of life is not to learn endlessly but to create and enjoy wealth. Learning is just a means; practice is the key. You need to apply the knowledge you acquire in real situations to achieve success.
Successful people are those with strong execution skills. After learning key information, they immediately put it into practice, spending most of their time and energy on execution. Confidence, passion, innovative thinking, wealth, and partners are all gradually obtained during the execution process.
For those who want to start from scratch, time is especially precious. You need to focus your energy on knowledge and skills that can generate income, such as learning how to sell products through short videos, making money writing articles, or understanding emerging industries like blockchain. At the same time, practice more, experiment, and don't be afraid of failure.
Also, you need to learn to filter the people around you. Those who cannot bring you financial or business value should be minimized in contact, or you can even choose to block them. After all, your time and energy are limited, and should be used wisely.
When you devote yourself wholeheartedly to making money, you will find that time flies, and life becomes more fulfilling and beautiful. Conversely, if you are just continuously learning and thinking without taking action, you will become increasingly lacking in confidence, and your spirit will be dispirited.
Remember, failure and rejection are a normal part of life. When you want to grow and make money, you will always encounter various challenges and difficulties. But you must maintain a positive mindset and keep pushing forward. As long as you try more often and persist longer, things will naturally improve.
In short, apart from illness and poverty, you should not have any reasons to be sad. Because when you have money and health, all other good things will naturally come to you.
