Anyone Get Nervous When Everything Is Going Too Good

I will know I’ve left this world a better place if I can help those in need, care for the poor, sick, hungry or those in prison - imparting what I can to improve their situations.

What do I do to achieve this. I physically deliver food, door to door, to the poor and needy every month. I visit a major penitentiary each month and spend time talking with men who have very little hope of ever seeing freedom. I work at a homeless shelter periodically serving meals. I financially support a local organization that transitions homeless off the streets to shelters, then onto integrated housing with one of the lowest levels of recidivism in the country. Their lives are changed, many attend local community colleges, take entry level service jobs or in healthcare - and go on to lead productive lives.

I am purposeful and focused on raising children to be citizens of the world — to know and understand how others think, believe, live and appreciate and understand the differences — and hopefully follow my example of giving back to society (not just with money) but with hands-on service.

Peace out.

no, not trolling,

thanks for elaborating,

how did you make your miliions?

I hear you, there are certainly times in which I think "ok, when is the other shoe gonna drop". However, it is incumbent on me to push these thoughts aside and enjoy the moment. Worry will eat you up and while it's easier said then done, we all at times have to box that sh(t up and put it on a shelf in the back of our mind.

Enjoy the moment man, especially with your daughter. She'll grow up way too fast for your taste.

Cheers.

Just remember when you have more than you need in life, do not be bashful to give and help those who are in need.

Practice compassion; this is one way to keep good karma going.

I appreciate all the feedback! I do try to pay it forward and try to lead a value driven life. Just seems the scales are really tilted in my favor at the moment.

Values are big for me. A hand shake still means a lot -

I am grateful and fortunate for my blessings and don't take them for granted.

At the end of the day you have to keep pushing forward ->

I don’t sweat the small stuff so definitely not ruining the good with negativity.

Cool thread. Happy for those having a great year. I generally stay optimistic, so rarely think about the "what ifs".

I just ride the wave of good fortune. Give back as much as possible and if the wave crashes then I will figure it out then. Super grateful for the life I have and the people in it.
