Tycoon-ism: The only question with wealth is, what do you do with it? -John D. Rockefeller

How wealthy are you? How meaningful is your life?

What do you actually do that makes you a valuable person to the world? In our journey to success, we strive to become the persons that we want to become, and we do what it takes to reach the end of the line. Wealth is achieved through success, and success is nothing with undirected wealth. Undirected wealth is wealth that just comes and goes. We don’t notice it fly. We don’t even think about it. We may be happy of what we have, but how soon is it to end?

The power of wealth is more than making you happy. Wealth should be able to bridge the gap between the rich and poor. Wealth should be able to build friendship and fostering relationships among people. It should be able to educate, to feed and to nurture things that really matter. Remember that wealth can be achieved, and when lost, can still be found. But life and happiness, when gone, takes away the meaning of your existence, and the value of your person to the world. Wealth, therefore, should be realized as the instrument to life, to love, to happiness, and to success.

So what do you do with your wealth? What is your wealth? Whatever we have is our wealth – our lives, our family, our achievement, and our friends. We are all wealth to one another, and we are of value to everyone. Everything that we have is our wealth as well. Do not waste a single piece of your wealth. Nurture it, and live by it.
