I went to a talk once, or whatever it is, can't quite remember. The speaker talked about WANTS over NEEDS. And in my case at the moment, the income that I have and am currently looking for is a NEEDS for me to survive, both in the academical side and also my own personal side. It is a NEED, not a WANT. In fact, I am not someone who makes money a priority. I don't want money, but I need it to survive. Both are different.
It's kinda hurtful that people keep on saying that I'm doing Herbalife for the money. No. I'm doing Herbalife because I've felt the result from Herbalife. I stopped taking pain killers for my back pains, and I'm no longer in a lot of pain ever since I consume Formula 1. That's a wonder for me, and I want people to feel healthier by the day with the help of Herbalife and by the will of Allah, I can help them to achieve that too. It's not because of money's sake. No.
Ever since I was introduced to Herbalife, my life had changed drastically. I began to love the product when I went to my first Success Training Seminar (STS) at Kajang last December. It was awesome! Many people had achieved their results, with great stories behind every success. And I, too, told myself that I want to be like them, maybe not now, but one day too. Their success makes other people around them successful too. That's what I've been aiming for. I want to be successful alongside other people too.
But, people keep labelling me as a materialistic person. In need of money, live for money, can't sleep if I don't have money. I need to buy the latest stuff and so on. That's just a shallow mindset la! I mean, come on. There are many other important things to think of than that. I don't care if you're being sarcastic or you're being serious, but say that to my face, and I'll be angry. Seriously.
I don't understand how people can have such mindset. Money isn't everything in this world. Seriously, it is not. You know why? Because money will be used up, and you can look for it again and again if you want to. But, love? Islam? Dignity? If you don't take care of those kinds of things carefully, you will lose it.
I'm sorry, but I don't practice those kind of shallow mindset. Being materialistic is shallow. I am content to what I have at the moment. It may not be much, but I am quite content. But, in accordance to my current situation, I need the money to survive, so this is situational, thus explaining why I'm working extra hard for the money.
Do not interpret or say stuff like that to me. I will burst. Seriously. I'll stand on my own two feet for what I stand, and I say, "I am not a materialistic kind of person!".
