YOU ARE NOT RICH IN ALL THINGS, EVERYONE IS POOR

Thanks to @stellabelle for the wonderful, inspiring and motivating definition of POOR.

She said and I quote,

Everybody is Poor

Her word actually gave me more critical thinking about the specific word POOR

We all will have a good definition of POOR.

But what do I think About POOR after 10 days of great thought? Do I believe totally in being poor? What will I say to another person if I was asked his value status?

All this will be considered, but it's not going to be in little lines.

THE WORD POOR

Generally, the word POOR is almost used for someone who is not financially OK, but recently I realized it's much more than that. I quoted @stellabelle inspiring line above but it's incomplete,

Here, I'll give it in full;

Everyone is poor Just in different ways.

Firstly, I'll like to give a simple philosophy,

If you are Poor it's your Choice, simply because no Man is designated to be Poor.

What amazes me most time is when you see a perfectly OK somebody complaining about some things, but did you know the degrading fact about it? The complaint is not unique enough, Life Generally is not in favor of having all things, but some specific things are yours to have, all you just need to do is to strive a little to get it.

“Don't forget Everyone is Poor, But in different ways”

Now let's come to think of it, a rich man may be forced to say “POOR ME”, is he really Poor?, obviously, NO, But we he simply mean is that there is a particular thing he's his lacking, Funny enough someone can be Poor in Habit, Some may be Poor in remembering things, in likely scenario, A Rich man Forget his Staff naming ceremony, But in lieu of apologizing for his mistake, after confrontation, He said: Chai!!!! POOR ME, I'm sorry Dear, I forgot totally. So that explains he wasn't poor financially, but he's obviously lacking in remembering things.

With the Scenario, let's draft another definition of been Poor;

“Poor Simply Means Lacking In Something”

But is it that cool to be Poor?

In a real sense, everybody wants it all, In fact, there are Unending Wants in Human existence, Then everyone doesn't want to be Poor, But Out of my curiosity to study Human Nature, I discovered that being poor in a Real Sense is Likely to result from been poor in some specific areas, which I shall be discussing in the subsequent line.

POOR IN KNOWLEDGE.

I'll tell you this, been poor in the real sense arises from being poor in this area, on a more serious note, this area is assumed by me to be the most critical part of the topic under discussion.

• KNOWLEDGE IS POWER

"The essence of knowledge is, having it, to apply it; not having it, to confess your ignorance."- Confucius

There is this special quote I'll like to reference too

"Today knowledge has power. It controls access to opportunity and advancement." - Peter F. Drucker

I really wish I'm making sense, What I'm trying to emphasize is that many people lack knowledge, and if this is, definitely this people lack Power and aspect of Lacking power will rusticate having the ability to overcome something cheap, talk less of overcoming bigger things.

• POOR IN CONSTRUCTION

This needs a critical look, I'm sure I won't be able to Explain it all, but I must tell you, many are things we humans don't put in places, and they should,

Talking of Construction, I'm not talking about Constructing a Building, NO!!!, I'm talking about “Construction of Plans”, sincerely, I believe this is an area that needed to be noted regularly, what plans did you have? Are you plan a rigid one? Don't forget “He who Fail to plan, Plan to Fail“

Wait! Let me add something about construction, There is Construction in Words, this is an aspect that needed to be considered too, words is something that needed to be mind, one spoken it's not retrievable, even when writing, should be noted..... You can be Rich with just Simple Lines of Powerful Word written or uttered.

You're getting close to being out of being POOR is you consider something related to POOR IN KNOWLEDGE too, let's discuss it below.

POOR IN REALIZING

Let's ask our self, how well do we take note of our day in day out activities, one thing is essential, you need to be conscious of what's going on around you. Opportunity is something that's not constant when one is missing, it may not be recovered. So, How vigilant are you?

IF YOU ARE POOR TOO, I'M ALSO POOR, AND AGAIN, EVERYONE IS POOR BUT IN DIFFERENT AREA, IN DIFFERENT WAYS.

But what we need to be conscious of is what we are Lacking. If it's getting us to been poor in the real sense, then we need to swift to adjusting it.....

EVERYONE IS POOR, JUST IN DIFFERENT WAYS - Stellabelle
