What if money isn't the problem?
I have gone through a couple of posts regarding this topic and authors tend to highlight how important and crucial money could be in the life of every individual, and point out how life itself might not run when money is taken away from it.
It's almost true as most of our daily activities and dealings has to do with the presence of money ranging from moving from one location to another, paying to be able to access good communication with loved ones who are not close by, paying to put our health in check just avoid falling sick or probably treating the already sick.
All that everyone talked about what money can do in the life of every individual happens to be true.
But then what if the problem no longer relies on money?
What do you do?
I spent days pondering on this statement until I came across a clip of 3 children sitting all looking unkept and very hungry.
I watched as someone brought something to give to them, just a banana, not a bunch of it. I mean just a single one from the bunch.
When he stretched his hand with the banana to those kids I was surprised that they didn't all reach out to grab first as the picture of them tells they are very hungry. Instead they relaxed and allowed one of them to reach out for it and with full confidence they trusted his judgement that he was going to do the right thing.
He collected, pilled and divided it into 3 giving a part to the two the boys sitting close to him.
So I said to myself it doesn't have to be money all the time. In this case money wasn't the problem all they needed was a good representative.
Sometimes it's about trust, when people believe so much in you when people don't have fear of losing something meant for them when it's in your position.
Sometimes it is all about hope when they know that having you was never a mistake, having you close to them will always bring them close to their expectations until they achieve.
Sometimes it's about making them feel comfortable having you as a leader to them they are sure that your decisions and leadership skills will not fail them they are sure of good governance, they are sure of experiencing peace, they are sure that there will be no regrets.
So I said if money is no longer the problem then my life should be a currency that will impact the lives of others.
I will ensure that people are happy when ever they find themselves by my side, joy and peace will be my major responsibility.

Helping people achieve little goals.
What if you help a young boy who is pushing some kegs of water in a wheelbarrow?
What if you help an old man or woman cross the road?
What if you help a little child get his ball from the rooftop?
What if you help a lady fix her shoes?
All this will surely bring joy to the faces of the people involved.
When money is no longer the problem then look at the real problem and help fix it.
