There have been so many quotes, slangs and even some beliefs that has contributed so much to what people think of themselves, how they can live and what they can do. Most of which we met them in existence even before we grew up to know them.
One of these beliefs that I would want to talk about is "use what you have to get what you want". This is a strong one that has not only been instilled in the minds of people but it has kind of been established as a real fact to live.
Although this is true but it just happen that people tend to use it in the wrong direction than using it in the right path.
You can be upskilled and use the knowledge you have to get a good job you want and you can as well attract goodness or fulfillment of your dreams with a good act that you have. At the end of it all, you used what you have to get what you want but in a situation or the context I am trying to talk about, people have actually turned the world upside with this belief.
You would see so many young ladies and girls exposing or trading their bodies in exchange for money or material things that they want to have because they have what the man wants and they are ready to give it out to get what they also want in return.
I've heard of stories of girls who were used by money ritualists just because these girls wanted to be in class of those who uses the latest iPhone model.
Over the years, I've learnt to stay contented with what I have, prioritize what I need and not bugle myself with what's not really necessary for me to feel pressurized. My body is the temple of God is my watchword and so I can't useless it just for material things. This has helped me not to be wavered even when economy and responsibility pressure sets in.
And for every young ones around me that God would destined to harken to good counsel, I had made them realize the thin line between misinterpreting this belief or popular quote to act negatively and affect their lives or taking it for the good path and having a life worthy to be emulated by others.
Life is a choice and for every negative belief out there, there is the power in our hands to accept them or ignore and not conform to them.
