It's your career

In life, we can choose what to do. But we cannot choose the consequences of what we do.

The above diagram shows fairly clearly that there are some activities (in red) that will simply not help a person to get closer to his/her career objective.

Yet, millions of people engage in those activities, often on a daily basis.

Few people do the activities described in green.

This is why only one person out of 20 will ever achieve financial independence. They fully deserve it.

The rest will keep doing what they've always done, and will keep wondering how come they're not getting everything they want out of life.

It may be comforting to blame the rich for exploiting workers, or to point the finger at the government or other institutions for our lot in life. Yet this simple diagram shows that if we want something, it is simply a matter of know precisely WHAT to do, and then just do it.
