🌱 How to Stay Poor
(Or how to stop being afraid of failure)
If you live with the fear that you might fail, that you won’t make it, or that you’re “not enough,” then this piece is for you.
Because the kind of poverty we should fear most isn’t financial — it’s the poverty of the soul, of movement, and of faith in yourself.
Let’s see, with a touch of irony but plenty of truth, how we “stay poor” — and, most importantly, how we can stop doing it.
📱 1. TV, phone, and computer all day
The screen is the easiest way to forget your worries. But it doesn’t make them disappear — it only numbs them.
Constantly consuming content doesn’t relax you; it drains you.
👉 Try this:
Go outside for a while without headphones. Look around, live life, let your mind breathe.
Reality is tough — but it’s real, and that’s where your strength lies.
🎨 2. No hobbies — no friends — no exercise
When fear of failure takes over, you avoid trying new things or connecting with people.
But hobbies, friends, and sports are some of the most healing things in life.
Hobbies make you feel creative.
Friends remind you that you’re not alone.
Sports teach you the most important lesson: you can lose today and rise again tomorrow.
👉 Start now:
Sweat isn’t weakness — it’s health. It’s freedom.
🔥 3. No passion in life
Passion isn’t something that “comes to you.” It’s something you wake up.
It starts with one small action, one small effort — and slowly, you watch yourself change.
👉 Remember: enthusiasm isn’t just for kids — it’s the most powerful adult form of courage.
🛋️ 4. Comfort zone
The comfort zone feels safe, but it’s where dreams go to die.
If you want to see who you really are, step just a little outside — right where it scares you.
👉 Secret: fear doesn’t vanish instantly.
It shrinks every time you move forward.
🪄 5. Waiting for magic
If you’re waiting for the “perfect moment,” it will never come.
Luck loves movement, not waiting.
👉 Start with what you have.
The road is built by walking — not by waiting for it to build itself.
👎 6. Blaming others
Blaming others is like handing the steering wheel of your life to someone else.
👉 Take it back.
You’re not to blame for everything, but you always have the power to change something — even one small step at a time.
And that step is worth more than any excuse.
💡 The Secret
Real poverty isn’t about not having the material things you want — it’s about being too afraid to try.
Too afraid to fail.
Too afraid to make mistakes.
Too afraid of what others might say.
That’s real poverty.
Life doesn’t reward the perfect — it rewards the persistent.
True wealth is patience, and above all, perseverance.
To persist until you get it right.
To persist in what you do.
To persist until you win.
Because whoever persists, wins.
