When my bank account is low on money , i would always take this out and look at it and say to myself " i am not poor . Just not enough usable cash. "
Yup , even we numismatic dealer may look rich since we are selling banknote or coin collection but many don't know that doing this field is not easy.
I would take this out to remind myself that my current life is better than when i begin . Because when i begin my journey as a numismatic dealer i only have RM300 per month and i need to build up my business with this money.
The current situation remind me of this War of the Three Kingdoms Episode 42 at 27:07 where cao cao say " heaven is generous to me to leave me 27 people . " than he say when he fail to assinate Dong Zhou he need to escape and often alone. Within few years, he manage to get a big army and an imperial flag . He have nothing against heaven . At the ending he say since i still got 27 loyal soldie . it mean heaven never let me down , i will never let it down.
Remember to always appreciate what you have even when time is bad .
