The Mindset you Need to Overcome Generational Poverty
#1
Dear Friend,
If the script your family handed you doesn’t inspire you, toss it out and draft a new one. But know this: new stories aren’t written with pens, they’re written with guts, sacrifice, and the courage to build. The sting of sacrifice lasts a moment; the sting of recycled poverty lasts forever.
Here’s the truth nobody admits: many people stay broke not because they don’t try, but because they never learned the real codes of money. School skipped those lessons. If you knew them, their system of control would collapse.
1. Poverty is Not a Virtue
Some of our parents endured suffering and dressed it up as humility. Don’t swallow that. Poverty is not noble—it’s a sickness. Decide you’ll be the last in your bloodline to suffer it.
2. Learn What They Missed
Your father may have labored for decades yet still struggled to borrow fare. Why? He never cracked the codes of selling, multiplying money, or using leverage. You must. Financial literacy is the first act of rebellion.
3. Jobs Are Not Freedom
If your biggest dream is “a safe job,” you’ve already chosen chains. A salary can feed you. Only assets can free you. Freedom belongs to those who own, not to those who only earn.
4. Kill the Excuse Culture
“No connection.” “No capital.” “No opportunity.” Maybe true then, but not now. You have the internet, a smartphone, and global access. Your parents lacked tools you already carry in your pocket. What’s your excuse?
5. Lose the Shame
Rebels don’t wait quietly. They sell. They market. They pitch. They get rejected and come back again. If you remain shy, you’ll inherit the quiet poverty of the last generation.
6. Shift From Spending to Building
The poor celebrate what they can buy. The wealthy celebrate what they can build. Don’t be the one flashing new shoes and gadgets with zero investments. Be the one who looks boring today but owns tomorrow.
7. Stack Assets, Not Validation
Applause doesn’t pay rent. Followers don’t cover tuition. Assets do. Put aside something each month that will pay you later. That’s how lasting wealth is built—quietly, consistently.
8. Have Faith: Last but not least. Have faith in Jesus Christ. Accept him as your Lord and personal  saviour.

Although this is not a must since even sinners get rich, it is very important if spiritual forces are the cause of your poverty. If that is the case, no amount of head knowledge can save you, but Christ will, if you accept him.

Another advantage is eternal life and escape from the torment of hell.

Poverty and wealth are both generational. Somebody has to break the chain. Why not you?
