The second passage from my second book entitled “DARE TO CREATE THE LIFE YOU WANT”
The second passage from my second book entitled "DARE TO CREATE THE LIFE YOU WANT" (a passage on work life and finances).
A passage from my second ebook entitled “DARE TO CREATE THE LIFE YOU WANT”.

“The doctrine of Christ surpasses all the teachings of the saints”.
The life and words of Jesus Christ in the Gospel are a great gift to us humans. If we believe in God in the Trinity and in Jesus our Redeemer, this faith empowers us to follow Jesus, to listen to Him and to live according to His teachings.
Don’t spend all the money you earn (financial sphere).
The habit of systematically saving money is important if you want to be financially independent (e.g. from the state); I don't know about pension systems in other countries, but I know a bit about the pension system in Poland and I can say that the situation of pensioners in 20 or 30 years will not be very optimistic.
I recommend Brian Tracy’s book ‘Crunch Point’.
I have read this book twice. It consists of 21 chapters and describes methods for dealing with difficult, crisis moments in the operation of a company. The advice contained in this book is also applicable to private life.
