Hm
I’m sure that man will never forget what you did. You had your financial difficulties but you still chose to teach the boy despite knowing that his dad is having financial issues and won’t be able to pay you up
If you want to know why you’ve gone this far today, it may not be because of your hard word alone but also the things you’ve done and the smile you’ve put on the faces of other people 

Failure is definitely not the end of a man, it's a stepping stone to greatness. When we fail we automatically learn better and become a master of it. I don't see failure as a disadvantage but a movement towards greatness. Thank you for sharing this wonderful piece 

It is exactly like this, a man's real life begins only after failure and then he starts working hard from the beginning again and then one day he succeeds in this world and the whole world sees it.

Indeed. We need to pray for our bosses also because they are giving money to us and we are dependent on the money. Their financial matter can affect us directly. I think uncertainty in case of finance comes sometimes and we need to find the way to adapt with the situation. 

There is profound message for me about calculating future income, I do that all the time, and it's hard when everything falls apart, the same thing happened to me when I lost my weekend job a while back, which paid my car payments and some other bills. What struck me was that you don't just say to be positive and everything will be fine, but you give steps to follow like looking for other ways to make money and getting rid of those people who only know how to take and never give anything back. I also guess if my boss does well we'll probably do well too. Creating different ways to make money, like you did with Hive and also teaching classes is a very smart idea in these crazy times when jobs come and go so quickly, I wish my Hive account grows eventually as I become more active and learn how to navigate the ecosystem. Your story shows that recovery isn't just about having a good attitude but about doing something about it instead of just complaining and not looking for ways to get everything back on track.

Burl is a money manager oo 😂...see calculations, lolz, up to 6 months salary wey you never see.. lolz 😂, that's pretty indeed, motivation ingredients.. really nice

Your approach is nice, especially cutting ties with some people who are so much draining our lives. The truth is that some people in our lives are the real setbacks...we must discover those kind of people and fleeeee!!

I also have the habit of calculating my earnings in advance to know how much I would be expecting at the end of the month, I do this on Hive, too. But sometimes, our plans fail but most of them come as a blessing in disguise. 
Many people do not understand how important it is to pray for their bosses when working under them because if anything should happen to them, it will affect them, also. 

This is an interesting insight that I really don't anticipate much on, i.e also praying for those helping us. It shows how interconnected and interdependent we all are even when we like to think otherwise. 

You did well, it's not everyone that wants to work without getting paid. May God reward your effort.

You're right when you said we should pray for our bosses, whatever that affects them will also affect us.
