RE: Don't Give It To Me, Help Me Earn It

in #ecotrain7 years ago

You're right @permieemmy. Anybody can go through bad luck due too different factors, we can have potential to get back on our feet. I think that's where the help must be focused. I always go by "Don't give me money, just help me earn it by showing me how," because that's how I become productive again for me and for others.

This is so true. I quit my job last week and I was terrified but because I have the tools to diversify my income I was able to find a few different writing jobs (one in permaculture which is great for me) and that helped me get back on my feet. Thanks to everyone who taught me the tools I have and the things I know, I have the capacity for self-sufficiency to an extent. I think this also encourages all to be mentors to other people
