Wealth, measurement, achievement

“To be rich, you don’t need to make more money; you chiefly need to better manage the money already flowing through your hands.”

“Measure your wealth not by the things you can buy but by the things that no money can buy.”

Before you are old, attend as many funerals as you can bear, and listen. Nobody talks about the departed’s achievements. They only thing people will remember is what kind of person you where while you were achieving.

I’ve been sharing collections of notes from Kevin Kelly’s book “Excellent Advice for Living.”

I loved the thread in these three notes. The first talks reframes wealth in a way that focuses on what we control.

The second reframes the purpose of attaining wealth.

And the third puts the attainment of wealth and conventionally defined success in perspective.
