Hello guys, how are you all doing? Let's talk about something very very important, it has to do with our pockets (financial life). Most people have made wrong financial decisions that almost ruined their entire life but then since there is life, the zeal to reach the top is sacrosanct, so then let's talk about how to Fold sleeves.

When I came to this city newly, I was always hiding and not allowing my friends see me at work place because I was just a cashier, I was thinking I deserved something more appealing to the eye (society) but little did I know every race starts with a step.

I was working in a supermarket and when my friends comes around to get some stuffs, I won't want them to see me, sometimes I will even pretend like I am pressed then used the toilet to escape but do you know the most funniest part of it? Most of these my friends were still staying with their parents and still feeding with what the parents provide.

So when I realized how ignorant I was to folding of sleeves and never taking paychecks serious, I blamed myself, infact I worked so hard that I was made the manager of the supermarket, at that point, I never cared who saw me or who didn't, all I cared was to get my money and sort out my bills because I don't have anyone to settle them for me.

Why am I saying this? Some people are too shy of what puts food on their table, it almost happened when I started writing on steemit, I thought it was just a micro blogging site so when I see my friends who are earning from YouTube and facebook, I would be jealous but today I can boast that Steemit has been putting food on my table and settling my bills that's why I don't joke when I am out here sharing some piece, it gives me so much joy regardless of who I am with.

No matter what you do and it atleast settles your bills, settles your debt and puts food on that table, don't play with it, do not share a nonchalant attitude towards it, don't give your employers the impression that you are bigger than their jobs by the attitude you display, you might be surprised that the job you are even eyeing won't be as paying as the one you think you are managing.

Get your hands dirty and don't be ashamed, when you go broke, no one will ever look at you, people will blame you for not being serious with your life even those that kept advising you from getting those hands dirty. If you loose that job, they won't pay your bills and even if they manage to, they will turn on you one day.

Fold your sleeves and get to work, you owe no one any explanation as to what puts food on your table, no, you owe yourself a good future and you need to start from somewhere. Fold your sleeves and work so you feed yourself my friends. This is just a friendly advise. Thank you for having me guys.
