It seems fitting that May hosts both Workers\u2019 Day and Mother’s Day\u2026 because who works harder than Mom? A mother is always there when needed, always willing to see the best in you and is a constant source of comfort and wisdom.<\/p>\n
And quite often, she knows a thing or two about money too.<\/p>\n
Mom would say: \u2018You can be anything you want to be\u2026\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n Mothers hear every aspiration, from astronaut to movie-star all the way to wanting to settle down or get an MBA. And she believes you can do all of it. Why not follow her advice, financially, and set some audaciously big goals for the next ten years?<\/p>\n Complacency kills passion, which kills productivity. So dream big and chase some wild horses!<\/p>\n Mom would say: \u2018Hold your horses!\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n Your mind may be running wild with new dreams now, thanks to Mom, but remember that these things take time. In the meantime, balance your head and heart to make rational yet passionate decisions; don\u2019t let those wild horses run away, keep them in check! Mom will often advise you to follow your heart, but what moms do is rather a masterstroke of loving fully and at the same time not throwing away responsibility, patience or the mindset of others\u2019 dreams being important too.<\/p>\n Mom would say: \u2018There there\u2026 does it hurt?\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n Sometimes when you risk in life, you fall down. The more worthy a goal is, usually, the more attempts it takes to succeed. When we fell and hurt ourselves as children, we knew we could run to Mom and she\u2019d know what to do. Often, she knew that \u2018time heals all wounds\u2019 and would simply comfort you until the pain was gone. Now that you\u2019re older, the pain of more complex things like a failed business or money troubles can seem like it\u2019ll never heal. Take a moment, allow yourself to feel what you\u2019re feeling and try to learn the lessons that came with the fall. And yes, it\u2019s still okay to talk to your Mom about it.<\/p>\n Mom would say: \u2018Always look on the bright side.\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n It\u2019s true \u2013 in life the only thing you truly have control over is your attitude. Just one thing, but that one thing makes all the difference in the world. This is often said by the same mom who would say things like \u2018don\u2019t cry over spilled milk\u2019 and, too, is true. There is good and bad in every circumstance, but those who pay more attention to the good and learn from the bad while not over analysing it tend to enjoy life more.<\/p>\n As Mom would say, life is short\u2026\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \t\t\t\tIt seems fitting that May hosts both Workers\u2019 Day and Mother’s Day\u2026 because who works harder than Mom?
