The Circle of Reality - Why Most People Can't be Rich

I had attend a seminar talk by a famous speaker Mdm. Tan yang Ho. I had learned something very interesting yet truthful. It is the circle of reality in our life.

In our everyday life, we are guided by a invisible force, called the circle of reality. We are guided by the circle regardless we notice or not its existence. So, what is the circle of reality is all about, and how it affect us in the path to build wealth?

Here I will tell you how I come about to understand the circle of reality. In our earliest life, when we were child, a toddler, a baby, we have a plain big circle of reality. Everything is possible in life, as often anything we ask for, we just need to cry, and walla, our wish often is fulfilled. Life is full of joy and disappointment seem to be so trivial, as we learn to walk, we wobble and fall again and again, we never give up and believe that we will definitely be able to walk and we did. Times goes by, and we are now a 9 years old primary standard one student. Remembering when teacher had given us an assignment to draw a elephant. Everyone is so excited and draw the elephant based on their imagination with their preferred colours. And imagine yourself drawn an pink elephant with wings on it. The teacher come over and take a look at the drawing, saying :" there are no such elephant, are you stupid?". From then on, the circle of reality become smaller.

When come to puberty age, being a teenager, believing falling in love is the best thing in life. And here goes a puppy love, but soon end up with breaking up. Now life seem to be ruins, disastrous like it was end of the world. Falling in love is worst nightmare in life. Such typical anecdote and episode again diluted the circle of reality in most people life.

Soon, we grown up, and started to have our first job, we believe by work hard we can be secured and successful in life. But soon after years and so, recession set in, despite seniority and hard work, the management decided to lay off those "obsolete" and "expensive" senior executive to be replaced by young and "cheaper" executive to reduce cost. Life again full of disappointment. The circle of reality now is almost disappear . The circle of reality turn form baby age of full of possibility into life that full of impossibility and disappointment. Ever since such pattern of life, we unconsciously shape our life into what I called cynicism. We would not believe in opportunities. We rather to believe opportunities to be something too good to be good than " no harm to try". Therefore, we lose many chances in life to change our life, to pursue and ensue wealth.

This is why, most of people today cannot be rich. Most of our life have greatly destroy the circle of reality that unconsciously shape our life pattern. When he circle of reality is gone, we lose faith, we do not believe. Therefore we failed. We failed because we fail to believe in ourself, to get whatever we desire and make it happen.
