ApolloAbove [JG]
Head of IT
There are many times I have reflected on my current life and my work situation, and I have realized something interesting. I have intentionally made my life more difficult than it needs to be, but this is actually making me much stronger. It is a good thing, to ask for more, to go back for seconds, to fill a bigger pair of boots. As SS we have the capability to push higher and be stronger than anyone else. However, this capability isn't always fully met, especially if you are shying away from challenges and not asking for further guidance from the Gods.
I am an entrepreneur, and I am not satisfied with working a day job. After having done it for many years, I wanted more from life, and I also wanted more money to give back to JoS. However, with a normal job salary, you can only earn so much per year. Whether you worked really hard, or slacked off, you still earned the same. Perhaps a bonus could show up or an eventual promotion, but I felt like this system keeps intelligent, active people stuck in a loop. You wake up early, sit in traffic, work, sit in traffic again, and repeat. Worse, by the time you get home, there are a million other things you have to attend to, plus all of your spiritual advancement. There was nothing novel, or exciting (depending on the job!), which eventually pushed me to start experimenting with random business ideas on my own time.
There was a point of no return when I asked the Gods for more guidance. I wanted to know what it took to not only generate vast sums of wealth, but also keep it, manage it, and grow it. It wasn't just money I was after, but it was building something myself, from the ground up. Something that I could look back on and say "I built that." From that point after, I experienced a lot of growth, most of it mental and mindset adjustments. I had preconceived notions that some things were "impossible" or "out of my reach" which is viewed differently now.
After this, many things in my life concerning my career became... "difficult" or harder than before. I was being tested, and gauged on how I reacted. There was always some failure before, but now each failure contained an obvious lesson. Running your own business is far more difficult than working a normal job, as you suddenly do not have a guaranteed paycheck, and you are more at the mercy of economic instability. But doing this cultivates an excellent, level-headed mindset, and forces you to mature and handle your responsibilities very seriously. This is even more true for SS, as we are guided to become extremely powerful entrepreneurs, and the Gods have our backs, urging us to continue forward.
I could have never asked for further guidance, I could have just aimed my wealth workings at getting a comfy, easy job where I could coast the whole day, I could have just asked for more money and that would have been it. But instead, I asked for more, and have been rewarded for it. Now, I aim my sights very high, and take on any challenge I can, which causes exponential growth.
