Life is Vanity but choose your vanity wisely, would you rather live in abject poverty and pass it unto your coming generations or strive hard and break all obstacles on your way to the top, achieve greater things and leave those things for your next generations.....

Some people said life is short, there is nothing we bring and nothing we shall take back, so they decide to enjoy their life to the fullest, spending lavishly what they see with no plans to set up anything that will benefit those coming after them, i think this is just a selfish thinking and only selfish people think this way, what happens to creating wealth to make sure your generations never have to suffer again, write your name in the history book of your lineage being the one who defeat poverty and change the story of your generation and the ones to come...

People envy the rich Families, forgotten it was one of their past generations that made them so, it was the hard work of the dead who paved way for the riches the new ones are now enjoying, ever wonder what your lineage were doing back then? we never can know and some people are really trying to break this chain of poverty but as we all know not everyone is destined to be rich but it is another problem if the chosen one have no common sense on how to utilize his wealth for the gain of his generations...

I was told about a family that all their family members are rich, they all have their own houses and most of them are not even in the country and they only visit once in a while, i get to know of this family story when their grandmother died, she lived up to 100 years of age and as the story entails, she was the one that gave her family financial freedom, when she was young she work so hard and made sure to build her children by sending them out of the country to pursue their career, she made sure no one was left behind and those children also know what they were doing and the impact of their mother's lessons reflect on them and they also work hard to become great and when they gave birth they pass this legacy unto their children and their family becomes a great one that people talk about...

We all see see the success but we do not know the hurdle the grandma had to overcome before she was able to achieve it, she must have had troubled days, days she felt like giving up and days the roads were block but she never gave up as she knows what she want and was determined to achieve it and she was successful in doing that!

I already know what i want to achieve even before this prompt happen so it is not something i need to crack my head to do, A man who failed to plan has already planned his own failure....

Legacy

I can not give them the whole world but i will give them a good portion of it...

*My goal in life is to make sure my generations to come never have to go through any hardship, my children should never have a reason to skip a meal due to lack of food, they should never have to be worried about bills to pay, i want life to treat them better than it did to me...

Man wishes God fulfills, if my wishes come to pass, then i will definitely create source of wealth everywhere, be it company, factories, houses and any other thing that will generate income, i must do this for my unborn kids! I must live generational wealth down for them and i will be forever remembered even when i am gone for being the one that sacrifice everything to give my generation a life worth living....

PRINCIPLES OF LIFE

What is the usefulness of wealth that can't be maintained? If i leave the wealth for them and didn't teach them the principles of life, the wealth will also vanish with my demise, they must be well educated, i must teach them about morals, how it pays to be selfless, loyal, kind and modest...

I will take good care of my kids but i won't spoil them, there is no usefulness of a spoilt child as he will only become the black sheep of the family, so i will make them follow my path, they must not feel they are above anyone and must be ready to help those who cross their path...

They must not depend on my wealth to survive but it should be something that inspires them to create their own and mine would be just a bonus added to what they achieved....


PATIENCE

Patience solves all problem and he who has everything to lose should never engage in a fight, imagine someone driving a benz fighting with someone driving a keke napep, if the fight get heated and they started venting their angers on each others car, who stand to lose the most?

So patience is a virtue they must learn to have, he who is patient already have half of his problem solved!

God's time is the best and they must be ready to wait it out in any aspect of their life that needs it...

Man, you wrote everything that I had in mind to write. It is great to leave generational wealth for your lineage but what is the use when they don't have the values to keep them? They feel they are entitled and chose to leave a reckless life. Nothing would remain left for their own lineage.

This is an awesome read brother

I agree! It is not enough to bequeath just wealth but knowledge on how to manage and strive with it in life. We must ensure our successsors are well groomed with principles otherwise our efforts would go in vain.

Yeah, I also love the point of patience. It's truly one of the greatest virtues one can obtain.

Thanks for sharing this nice read Burl👌.

As we live our lives, we leave behind a trail of memories, experiences, and interactions. Over time, these accumulate to form our legacy. Our legacy is the sum of who we are and what we have done. It is the story that we leave behind for future generations. Thank you for this posible legacy you intending leaving behind. You are a good man.

There are indeed some basic principles to life that everyone needs to know, we have to pass it on down to the ones coming after us so they don't get to make the same mistakes we did.

Thank you for sharing this with us.

@burlarj nice to hear your legacy plans however, there are some difference of opinions but in the end, we all want to have our next generation in good and better place than us, that is the main goal.

This is an awesome write.
When a child is born to wealth, he tends to braggadocios but with the help of discipline, the principle of life, the child will do the right thing.

Patients is a key to speed, there is a time for everything, and if you run faster than you are, you'll miss road, but patients will take you with an unusual speed.

Nice write up boss, well explained.
