Growth and change. Thus if you just optimize your life towards growth and change, how can you fail? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, when it comes to money and finances, it is not necessarily how much money we have, but the change over time. For example, it is better to start off poor and accumulating modest wealth, then to start off as a billionaire and end up a millionaire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Apparently I heard a story of a guy who made $1 billion in the stock market, only to lose $990 million committed suicide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I also think that this is why in life, we like to have a sense of progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What do powerlifters and bodybuilders care for?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re a power lifter, it doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t matter how much you lift. Rather, that your personal records are slightly inclining. Same thing in bodybuilding, it doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t matter how buff you are, but it only brings you joy to see if you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re actually gaining muscle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Car owners<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Same thing with car owners. It doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t matter if I have a Lamborghini, if my next car isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t more epic than the Lamborghini, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m not happy and satisfied.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is life?
