Be of service
Wealth, like happiness, is never attained when sought after directly. It
comes as a by-product of providing a useful service.
Do something that genuinely helps others and makes the world a better place in a
major way. That’s the way to have a happy, fulfilled life.
I agree with this line of thought. In my view there are only two ways to make a living
a)Do something on demand (supply & Demand are favorable)
b)Do something that improves the life of your client.
If you do the former and there are no barriers to entry one day you will be with no job (Even in Europe). If there are millions of people that can do what you are doing you have a problem. At the moment in Europe there is a huge demand to regulatory/compliance/legal & paper moving jobs. Those jobs have zero value for society. Everybody can be a compliance officer. One day they will be without job. On top of that deep inside you if you work in this kind of jobs you know you are doing nothing for society.
If you provide a service or a product that really improves the life of your client you have job and you feel a sense of pride in what you do. You are making a better world. This line of business is more sustainable and can bring you more money and happiness.
