The View Is Much Better from the Top.
It's tempting to wish that life were easier, or that things were cheaper, but that's like hoping a mountain changes its height so it's easier to climb. It's a passive approach. However, aspiring to be better and have more is like training yourself to climb higher peaks, or saving up for what you desire. It's taking an active approach that gives you the power to improve your life. Life's going to throw challenges either way, but by planning to be better, you're essentially gearing up to meet those challenges head-on. So, whenever you find yourself wishing for things to be easier or cheaper, catch yourself. Turn that wish towards personal growth and increased earning instead. Trust me, the view is much better from the top, and the sense of accomplishment when you can afford what you want is awesome.
