What do you do when you meet people who are financially or economically in a better position than you? Let us all be honest here.. we sometimes compare ourselves to our peers and see if they are doing better than us. There are times where, whether it is good or not, we can tell they are doing better in life. Of course we do not know their struggles but we know that financially they are quite more comfortable than you.

In that case, should you try to fake your own situation as to not get pity or should you be honest? When I encounter people who are financially ahead than me I just think that it will be me someday... That I will reach that level too where I would be able to buy whatever they can. So basically I try to make them my inspiration. Do you take inspiration from the rich people or do they make you feel worse?

I always take inspiration from hardworking people. Because only a hardworking person knows how hard it is to earn money. I have many friends who always drive around in cars, if I take them as my inspiration, I will never be able to do anything. Because they live their lives on their parents' money. So I always take a hardworking person as my inspiration.

When a hardworking person grows up, he understands how to grow up with difficulty. A person should not have any goal, if someone has a goal, he may stop near the goal or stop after the goal is achieved. If a person does not have a goal, he will never stop. He will always keep working and will continue to move forward successfully.
