Do You Believe That Poor People Never Succeed In Love?
I received a private message recently on Facebook. He stated that poor people have never succeeded in love and asked if I believed in that. He also stated that stages in life separated them just like religions.
People change and do not stay the same, but sometimes their mindsets can limit their growth and opportunities. People that do not strive for more in life or are stuck in their limited beliefs and ways will more than likely stay the same causing limited success. They will end up with little success and feel as if they are doomed to fail inevitably.
If you are poor and believe that this holds you back from achieving your goals and that you cannot change your situation, you will be limited in what you want to achieve in life.
Love is an energy in its essence. You don’t have to have any money to show that you value someone. Money is a tool and a resource, but does not determine the fate of a particular relationship. Some people consider time to be of value and giving someone your time in a mindful way can allow a wonderful connection to take place.
A long time ago in school, I had to do a paper on what I would do with $10 if I were on a date with someone. I think this exercise still holds a valuable lesson to this day teaching that time can be as valuable as money. There is a lovely article from the And Then We Saved website called, “24 DATE NIGHT IDEAS FOR $10 OR LESS” by Anna. It goes over a creative list of dating activities that do not cost a lot of money. My favorite ideas listed in this article are hitting the nature trail, cooking a new recipe together, stargazing, skating and visiting local museums. It is about the time that you spend with somebody and how to create a sense of excitement and happiness in the moment with whatever you choose to do.
If you have the belief that you can’t do anything fun without money, you won’t have fun. It is hard to change long held beliefs overnight.
Circumstances can change. People that are poor don’t have to stay poor. People that are rich can have unexpected events happen and lose their fortune. Having love in your heart and communicating how much you value someone will do more than what money can do because there is real human feeling and emotion behind it.
If your significant other is only impressed by money and wealth, is that the type of relationship that you really want? Money and wealth is not the only source of happiness in this world. People that have had to struggle with money are oftentimes more resourceful and more creative. Who you are is not dictated by money. You are limitless.
