HOW CAN MONEY CONTROL PEOPLE?

Hi people, this is my first cut in blog! I am so excited because I didn't know why I decided to make this blog. Believe me, I don't! My English is suck but I must try before I stop, right? When I was in senior high school, I saw my classmates had everything. Money, new arrival gadgets, super cool shoes, they had everything that I wanted. Sometimes, I just thought, how pity I am! But then, I found something in my book. Something really good that changed me. No, I mean changed my mind.

I didn't believe a book actually, but I tried to believe that book so I read it again and again. I saw their tips how to manage money, but in the same time I am controlled by my money. They restricted me all day. Nothing I could do without worry about my fund. And then, I decided to act all tips that I've learned and finally I realized that everything can change if we don't stop trying. Yeah, the point is, there is a will there is a way.

One day, God took my beloved mother. My life was totally changed after that. It wasn't good change. I got more difficulties to control my money because my father felt the same way too. He was not an expert in money control. He is not! He could work all day to get much money but He couldn't save them. He never thought to save them and never thought about future. He just thought that He will work and get money every day.

Honestly, that made me so sad. I tried to talk with my father and shared the tips but he wasn't interested at all. He said that he was tired enough to think about family and job, so he had no idea about money control. He said that people can't control money because money is something we can reach but we can't control.

Finally, I passed from senior high school. After that, I decided to study Physics in university. Unfortunately, I didn't really like that major. The physicist in Indonesia get difficult to find a job. Many of us become a jobless and some of us work in other part like Bank, Life Insurance, Sales, store department, etc. In the end, the knowledge we've learned for 4 years in university can't be applied.

I was a fresh graduated and I got tired to get a job. I worked in education center and I was so bored. I just thought why people study hard in university and then work in people's company? Why don't we make our own business? Working in our own brand! That arrogant questions finally woke me up. I didn't want to be an employee. I don't! I want to be a businessman and work for myself. I am the owner.

Sometimes I saw my face in the mirror and my lips said "How arrogant you are!! You won't be a rich man if you don't get a part in big company!". But then, my heart and my mind told me that I did something right. I just tried to do the best thing for my future and they said "You don't have to be a rich man, just be a successful man who stand on your own feet".

So far, I get my strength to make me feel alive. I've decided to build my own brand to fulfill my life. You know, I always ask and still ask to my heart, "How can a paper called money control people?"
