Hoffe Englisch ist ok, will nicht übersetzen.
Provokanter titel, finde den artikel aber sehr gut und der Rede wert.
Is your life so highly valuable?
Feb 17
Human life doesn’t have that much value! (shocked)
Because of the biased belief that one’s own life has high value, people take wrong paths. When that goes badly, they lament blame everything but themselves.
A typical example of this is the college student’s job-hunting. To job-hunt is to join a race. A race deciding who will provide their time in labor to which industry for about 40 years as a worker.
Put another way, you could say jobs are 3 million USD investments. The lifetime funding of an average salaryman is 2,8 million USD.
This is an investment of human life itself.
The greatest reason why people fail at that investment is that they believe they are born free. They mistakenly believe that they are valuable, and do not understand the real truth of things.
“ The difference between successful people and really successful people is that really successful people say no to almost everything.
Numerous greats including Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, and Warren Buffett have attributed their success to focus. Many people have long to-do lists and work on becoming more productive, when in fact, having a not-do list is more important if you want to do great things.”
