What the Elites Don’t Want You to Know

‘You are the author of your life.’ I’m sure you have heard this a thousand times before as this cliché has been said by a lot of great speakers to motivate their audience. But somehow, you most likely believe that some lives are authored by bloodline especially for people who are born with a silver spoon in the mouth. And you know that the quote ‘You are the author of your life’ is only applicable to regular people so that they couldn’t blame anyone for the poverty and scarcity they experience.

-The Trap-

Now let me tell you some truths that might shock the very core of you. The things that the world and the media has led you to believe are façade and lies to stop you from being free from the trap. And when I say trap, I mean that 9-5 job you’ve signed for. Trap is the routine that you do, an endless cycle of going to work, receiving your paycheck monthly, that’s not even enough to cover all the dues. Trap is also the miserable and dangerous world that you believe you are living in. These are traps. And a lot of people are still in this trap because of the lies that the society has successfully made them to believe.

First off, education will not make you a wealthy person. A regular job from a gigantic company will not make you wealthy either. Please don’t get me wrong, I am not saying that education is unimportant. In fact, I strongly believe that it is necessary, as necessary to have a regular job. But the question whether these things will make you rich, the answer is a short no.

The sad thing is as a person learns the things in school, he becomes unlearned of what life is truly about. And there were only few people who were able to be free from the trap and saw the bigger picture. And these people I’m talking about are the self-made millionaires today. 

You can check the validity of my point through research. It would not take long before you figured out that Steve Jobs, Bill Gates and even Mark Zuckerberg, to name a few, didn’t have a college diploma. Mark Zuckerberg though, got his Harvard degree recently in 2017, in the aftermath of Facebook success. That was actually twelve years after he left Harvard. My point is, education doesn’t make one rich. But yes, it is necessary for one’s foundation of knowledge.

-The Life Pattern-

All the self-made millionaires today who were able to free themselves from the trap were the ones who chose a life pattern contrary to the norms of the society. Life pattern is one of the greatest lie that the world has made you believe. By making you believe that you are a human with very limited potential and having limited resources, they have dictated you a life pattern of how you are supposed to live your life. 

The common life pattern that the society has been trying to feed you is that life is all about having an education, getting a regular job, building your own family, retiring at old age, and finally enjoy the remaining short years that you have. But do you really believe that your existence is all about schooling, working, having a family and die later on having feelings of regrets? In your heart, you know that there is more than this life pattern. This life pattern is part of the trap that will keep you from seeing the bigger picture. 

-The Bigger Picture-

Aside from breaking the society’s life pattern, do you know what else these self-made millionaires have in common? It’s the discovery of the bigger picture. If I would tell you right now that you can possibly earn as much or even twice as the CEO in your company does, you might laugh at me. I understand simply because not everyone can see the bigger picture. So, what really is the bigger picture?

The bigger picture is the fact that you can possibly be anything that you want to be and capable of having all the good things that you desire. This is a fact. What else is the bigger picture? The bigger picture is a realization that you are an unlimited potential. You are powerful. The bigger picture is realizing that you are not limited and there is more to life than the life pattern that the world has been trying to dictate you. The bigger picture is the discovery that the most treasured and expensive possession people have is their ‘time’. The elites don’t want you to see that. Mainly because if you realize how expensive your time is, you would realize how badly underpaid you are. Moreover, if one realizes that the best use of their time is to do what they are truly passionate about, which is the surest way to success, who else would choose an underpaid job?

Everyone has a gift. Everyone has talents. Everyone is meant to be great regardless of where they come from. Everyone is meant to have a major contribution to mankind. Life is meant to live like a beautiful melody, discovering the mystery and wisdom as you go through life. It is never meant to live the way the society has told you so. Life is all about serving your purpose using your G-d given talents and passion. Do you know why people like Mark Zuckerberg become billionaires faster than anyone else? It’s not magic. It’s simply because they use their talents to make major contribution to mankind. The result? Massive success.

Even the elites know that everyone has the ability to live a life that they desire because they too, have proven it to themselves. In fact, there are a lot of factors that the world has been using to evade you from seeing your purpose. Media, entertainment, even religions these days have a way of controlling people to prevent them to see what everyone is truly capable of. 

For instance, the media tell you that the world is dangerous and that you live a truly depressing life. Your religion tells you that it’s a sin to be wealthy, and let me tell you now, these are bunch of lies! Truth is, we all experience random acts of kindness every day. Look at the sun rise, hear the birds chirping, listen to the early morning wisdom and you’ll realize it screams beautiful miracle every single day. And for the record, being wealthy is not a sin, it is your birth right!

This is why I am very supportive to self-discovery. I encourage people to take time to discover their passion or improve their talents because these are the obvious hints of one’s ultimate purpose. Maybe there’s a song you’ve been wanting to compose, or that book you’ve been wanting to write, or business you want to start with, and a lot of talents and wisdom that you have to share to humanity. Isn’t it wonderful to wake up at your own time, do something that makes you feel so alive every day, rather than going to work feeling deprived and underpaid?

I may not be sure of what exactly it is that you are assigned to do on earth for it is your own journey to discover. However, I know one thing. And that is the surest way for any investment to be successful without a risk is to follow your own bliss.   

Life is a gift. Seize its beauty. Once you understand that you too can have a joyful life, your life will start to change. Once you understand that it is not evil to persevere for a better life for yourself and for your family, you are on your way out from the trap. Once you finally accepted that being happy and living well is your birthright, you will realize that there is more than enough for everyone. 

Now that you understand the bigger picture that the elites don’t want you to see, it’s up to you whether you choose to be free or stay in the trap. But if you still find it hard to decide, let me leave you one quote from one of my favorite audio books that has truly moved me. It was from the man who’s known as the “Oracle of Omaha”. Mr. Warren Buffett once said: “I have been poor. I have been rich. And trust me, rich is better.”     ----M.D.
