This is perhaps the most important lesson that I have learned on my journey. Life is not all about making money. Money is important but it plays a minor role. Life is all about staying happy and contributing positively towards other peoples’ lives and society.
Tomorrow, if I did our some new easy to help others and if I enjoy doing that then I will do the same thing again. It does not matter which profession you are in, it does not matter how old you are. A courier boy can bring happiness with the timely delivery of parcels. A photographer can bring happiness by capturing sweet moments of a newly web couple. Teachers can bring huge positives impacts to our society by nurturing their students. As a professional photographer, if your sole intention is to earn money then I doubt your prospects. However, if you’re primary intentions to capture significant moments that can bring happiness to others, then you will surely excel in your profession. If all of us can consider our profession in that same manner without thinking too much about money, then the world will be a happier place to live.
Ask yourself whether you are enjoying your current profession or not. If the answer is no, then immediately consider other options. While considering other options, do not worry too much about money. When I resigned from IBM, I controlled myself because I knew that once I was being successful in something I enjoyed, the money would flow.
