For Every Problem, There's Likely A Solution Already

The sheer amount of activity that people do in the name of fulfilling personal development or goals can be quite amusing. Some of us read book after book, or watch video after video in search of some magical answer that will be a one stop shop for all our problems.

Sometimes what we hope to find isn't an answer, but a magical solution that probably absolves us of any responsibility. Many don't want to do the work, or accept that things take time, consistency and effort to actualize. We instead keep seeking out these magical answers but are soon met with the reality of circumstances.

Least Effort

From a financial perspective, what many seek is a magical investment that gives us insane returns in the shortest possible time with the least amount of effort. This isn't helped by the fact that some people have indeed stumbled into wealth, and we ride on such stories creating expectations for ourselves.

This is how a lot of people fall into the hands of scammers though, and lose it all. If something looks too good to be true, it so often is. Impatience is not a strategy, neither is the endless consumption of theories without applying them. What we'll rather get is theoretical knowledge without results.

The solution doesn't lie in theories but in practice. Many of us have procrastinated over investments we know are decent, only to the missed opportunities later. The reason we don't invest is because we perhaps need that extra bit of assurance and validation, because we are too scared of loss. There is no assurance that is without some level of risk though, unless we forfeit the commensurate level of rewards.

Government securities are pretty assured, but they are not immune to things like inflation, devaluation, and will not create wealth in the ways we imagine. Any worthwhile investment has to come with some level of risk involved. The only way we stumble on something worthwhile is by showing composure in the face of decision making.

The strategies for success are well documented. There is perhaps no new piece of information we need in this regard, and even what we consider 'new' is simply repackaged and recycled. The solutions are already on the table, and we have probably come across them already.

Conclusion

Applying them is what we should be doing now, as we cannot grow without action. It really is all about deciding to act - pick one and build on it, than it is about anything else. The book of success has already been written, and we are meant to be participants

This is what I firmly believe. A problem comes along with its solution. It applies in all domains, be it finance or politics. Loved reading it 😁

Sadly that is the reality among alot of people, they are not willing to make much efforts but they want great results.. and that does not appear feasible..
