Recently, I’ve been pondering a question: why do some people always chase after money, while those who are actually pursued by money tend to become wealthier? What’s the real difference?



I believe the key lies in mindset. Many people constantly complain about not having enough money or that earning money is too difficult, and as a result, money actually stays away from them. Money is actually quite spiritual; it can sense your attitude toward it. The more desperately you chase after it, the faster it runs away. Conversely, those who don’t treat money as the main goal and instead focus on self-improvement tend to be pursued by money.

I’ve noticed an interesting phenomenon: people who truly make big money are usually not the ones obsessively chasing after it. Instead, they focus on refining themselves, elevating their awareness, and then money comes naturally. It’s like the law of attraction—you become the kind of person who attracts that level of wealth.

So, how exactly can you do this? First, you need to change your thoughts about money. Eliminate the mindset of poverty and think like a billionaire. Don’t always think about taking advantage of others—that only earns small amounts. Instead, learn to share money, help others solve problems, and you’ll find yourself earning more. Because, fundamentally, wealth is the reward you get after solving other people’s problems. The bigger the problem you solve, the greater the wealth you can gain.

Another very important point is: don’t spend money on things that aren’t worth it, and avoid wasteful extravagance. But at the same time, allow yourself to buy what you want—this is about balance. More importantly, keep a low profile about your wealth; don’t boast about being rich. Wealth should be kept discreet—that’s the wisdom of our ancestors.

There’s also an often overlooked point: when your life energy is low, chasing after money will only make you lose more money and fall into debt. So, raising your energy and awareness is fundamental. Spend time with people who are better than you, learn from their mindset and discipline—this is much more valuable than blindly chasing money.

Finally, how much wealth you can carry depends on your virtue. Be a good person first, then make money—virtue sustains all things. When you shift your focus from “I want to make money” to “How can I help others,” the situation where money chases after you will naturally form.
