money is freeing me from the desperation mindset i was in

starting to be more confident & secure in the things i like & dislike

feeling more ok with missing out on “opportunities” & “connections”

phasing flimsy/unreliable ppl out of my life

being more honest & vocal

etc

getting out of desperation mode is such an opportunity to break free from scarcity mindset, have felt it myself recently too

although it’s a shame that our capitalist society is built this way - by design - to keep people in desperation mode

Recently realized how people from higher social classes take more risks because they have a safety net if things go south.

It's wild to think about how this safety net boosts your success rate when taking chances. It's really not about the money but the mentality of just trying and not giving a fuck if you fail.

it’s a great point. although that last part is crucial. It actually IS about the money bc if you have a mentality of trying and not giving a fuck if you fail, AND you fail - you’re kinda screwed. 

Whereas the wealthy can experiment, tinker, fail, and still be in a good position. 

The safety net changes everything
