Things worth more than money (So you should pay for them!) (Why I TIP some people big!)
Share
I went to a Popular Restaurant yesterday and I asked for my free reward from the app.
(They give you free fries, but I don’t eat fries & for the past year, I have been given a salad or 2 eggs instead--mostly with only a few employees)
“I can’t do it’ “I already asked the manager she said ‘no’ too”
“Ok, that’s cool. I don’t need it. I have to go. Thanks”
In the process of packing up my bags, the manager comes out (My Beats were on, Listening to Dr. Rabbi Lapin’s book “Thou Shall Prosper”)
I took my Beats off “Miguel told me to give this to you” I hugged her “Aww tysm” then I was thinking “Why did I hug & thank her? SHE JUST DELIVERED IT! (Plus, she could have taken care of me but didn’t) BUT SHE NEEDED A HUG AND I ALWAYS make the RIGHT decisions! (LOVE IS ALWAYS THE RIGHT DECISION--ALWAYS!)
I looked and YELLED LOUDLY TO MIGUEL (he was still cooking) “Miguel, I APPRECIATE YOU! TYSM” “Thank YOU, Liberty” “NO, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU” he kept eye contact with me. I sucked in my bottom lip to stifle my unanticipated forthcoming tears)
I looked up to God, thanked Him for Miguel & asked God for Miguel to receive my gift graciously I quickly pulled out my only $4 and said, “Miguel, come here quick. He looked at me weird and just stood there, ¡ONDELE! (Hurry up in Spanish) Haha laughing (because we CAN joke like that!)
I handed him the money and his eyes GOT BIG “Thank you so much, Liberty!” “NO THANK YOU, Miguel”
As I was leaving, he kept staring. (I think they all did but my SOLE focus was on Miguel)
I told Miguel “Loyalty is worth more than money” And I have told him many times “I pay for loyalty” “I appreciate your loyalty”. I looked up the definition of loyalty, and it seems I misspoke. I used the wrong language.
What I really meant was “Your consistency is worth MORE than money” “Your KINDNESS is worth more than money” “Your GENEROSITY, YOUR CARE for ME and MY PHYSICAL HEALTH AND WELL-BEING is WORTH MORE than money” “I CAN TRUST YOU to always come through for me--EVEN THOUGH I DON’T ASK--AND THAT is worth more than money!”
I have said “I have a need for certainty”
Then I wrote “Entrepreneurships is about NOT having certainty, it’s about adaptability. It’s being able to embrace change, being prepared to pivot.”
Then, I listened to Dr. Rabbi Daniel Lapin’s book “Thou Shall Prosper” a Biblical/ Torahnical PROOF as to why God wants us to be rich and how it helps society.
Rabbi Lapin Discussed Lazlo’s hierarchy of needs, and said “You need to be able to embrace change, innovate, pivot--WHILE STILL keeping AS MUCH OF THE THINGS THAT ARE CONSISTENT and give you certainty and comfort.
I’ve been VERY UNCOMFORTABLE---WAY TOO Uncomfortable IN TOO MANY WAYS FOR TOO MANY YEARS.
I’ll save you sob story--CHILDHOOD WAS HELL for me. To say it was HELL--is like saying it was a day at the beach.
I go back there (to THAT HELL of my childhood) EVERY day. ALL day.
I am exposed to the disease of fear, LEECH “Neediness” (THEY FEEL they are lacking/ in need of attention, NOT TRUE)
Then there are fears my physical safety is threatened (like when sex dogs come into a store or restaurant I’m (WORKING AND WORK ONLY) In
LOUD NON THINKING BUTTHOLES and I feel there may be a fight or they may try to hurt me (TOO LATE IF I HEAR Them, then I feel it & I’m transported back to my childhood)
Psychological safety is threatened
I finally had to admit to myself that what Rabbi Lapin says IS CRUCIAL for me (and ANYBODY who wants to be happy, healthy and (at least) financially secure (OR FINANCIALLY WEALTHY (Multi-millionaire or more) like I do!
“YOU NEED CERTAINTY in your relationships and your environment while you are working on things that you are NOT certain about, like creating Financial wealth”
This is what Miguel gives me. THIS is what I NEED MORE than money--not just as an entrepreneur, but at the core of who I am.
Things that are worth MORE than money (So you should PAY MONEY for them)
Loyalty
Certainty
Reliability
dependability
Psychological safety
Physical safety
Time
energy
Initiative
Trustworthiness
Consistency
If you don’t believe you should PAY MORE for these things, and tip people who give them to you--I RECOMMEND BECOMING HOMELESS, CLEAN AND SOBER NO PILLS NO SEX BEFORE MARRIAGE FEMALE ENTREPRENEUR IN A BRAND NEW STATE
