Poverty is a state of lack and not having something ( money, material, property) that is needed at that present point in time. Globally speaking poverty has been a major issues with the united nations general assembly even giving out time frame to end poverty and improve the standard of living of the world population especially in third world countries where the rate of poverty is higher.
Infact I have come to the realization that poverty is the biggest problem that we have in the world right now poverty is what actually makes people to define who we are as a person as it confines us to live a life style that is far below our expectations and potential that are deposited in us.
Initially I was thinking that people who are poor where due to lack of opportunities and the right environment for them to grow and develop themselves but today I heard a different view entirely I was told that poverty is what is inside of you so before you can become rich that you need to be rich inside of you, infact the person even said if you are poor inside of you even if you are given a $million that it will be a matter of time before that money will be wasted and you become poor again.
That got me worried and thinking what really makes people to become rich? Let share our opinion on this
Look, I think one of the main reasons for poverty is laziness and reflection of thoughts. Apart from this another major reason is the social environment. But this is definitely after the first one. When people in society overcome laziness, expand their thoughts, and become successful then other people will succeed by holding their hand or following their methods.
