In this current state of constantly changing world, we all keep looking for stability. In the process of gaining stability, sometimes we feel that our resources are getting wasted, our time and energies are getting wasted. I would like to talk about a phenomenon that used to happen in our previous generation (my dad's). They used to buy a house soon after either getting a job or getting married. They used to pay for the mortgage through out their job life. By the time they retire, the house value used to grow enough to save them from any financial hardship. Imagine an investment big enough rightly made and contributed through out your life and benefitting you by the time you retire
The current world and life is different. For example, if you join a job, you want to prove yourself, you work really hard. You become a key person getting involved in multiple things. But let's say if you have to change your job, you have to start from scratch all over again. Whatever you did was gone and you have to start from scratch. Let's take another example, you moved to a community, you worked really hard and made so many friends. Everything is going well. Let's say due to some circumstances you have to move to a different community far away from the current one, then you have to start from scratch, work really hard, make friends again and this cycle continues as long as the world around you is changing. Similarly you are in a relationship. You have spent a lot of time. Suddenly if you have to part ways from your current relationship, you have to start from scratch.
Every time you keep putting all your pennies into a jar. But the problem is that the jar was not big enough to hold all your pennies. If you consider the above examples, imagine a job which you don't have to leave, imagine a community or a relationship that you don't have to part ways with. Then you would have found THE jar that's big enough. Choose your aspects of life wisely before putting any efforts. Imagine your life if you have a dream that's worth your life. That's the biggest jar you can ever get
