How Poor Are You!

Do you want to know your poverty graph? You are poor if you:

- do not have a firm commitment with yourself to succeed

- do no set goals and follow them through

- do not put your best efforts at work

- do not keep yourself updated on new information and technologies

- do not adopt a positive attitude and get rid of negative thinking

- are not strong enough to accept the challenges of day-to-day life

- are not ready to take any risk due to fear of failure

- lack self respect and respect for others

- discriminate people on the basis of religion, belief, cast, creed, nationality, etc.

- do not appreciate the good work done by others

- do not apologize to others for your misdeeds

- do not help the people in need

- do not thank God for all that you have

The list goes on and on. Let me leave it unfinished and ask you a simple question. Do you really want to get rid of your poverty? The answer, you know the better!
