You are Poor

When it comes to poor and poverty, you can call me an expert in this matter. How ? well I grew up in Bal Mandir, which is a children home. I was there for fourteen years; from the age three till seventeen. After my college my first job was in five star hotel, where I worked almost seven years. This contrast life allows me to pick poor by  their sights, behavior, manner and talk. I can sniff them from a distance.

If You want to shake of the poverty from your body then check the following ten qualities in you that makes  others it know what is your back ground. I am trying to list it in the most common behavior about poor people.
                                                                                                                                        Inferiority Complex : Although, this is that quality that can be found even with most successful and rich people but its rate. Inferiority complex exclusively belongs to poor people. when I attended a seminar one psychologist said 85% of the people suffers from inferiority complex  in every society. Then I can say that, those 85% sure belongs poor society.If you get over it you will be out from poor circle in your life. Remember that means success in your life.

Uncivilized :  Wild and primitive behavior is one such thing that you have to deal with when it comes to dealing with poor people. In the light  they may appear so timid and rigid to hide it, but slowly allow them to reveal their side you will be stunned. They cling so much with the old comfort zone  they refuse to change even for their own self.  In primitive society people do not care much about manners, hygiene, cleanliness and sanitation. Clean surrounding, hygienic food and sanitation is directly linked with self respect, happiness  and also long and healthy life. Its for us not for other yet its hard to see that how poor people are  tolerant for unclean and smelly environment in their surrounding.

Negative thinking :  one of the reason poor remains poor forever is because they are so negative thinking. Reading one swami helped me to understand why people think positive. He wrote people who suffers from low self-esteem can't think positive things in life. Changing your thinking from negative to positive is time consuming efforts and trust me, its not going to happen overnight. It takes years of reading and listening positive people. Have you read the book The power of positive thinking by Norman Peale ? This book will help you change your negative thinking into positive thinking.

Blaming it all on falling  sky above them :  Poor people invariably agrees with cynics who do not check facts but gives opinion out of fear of lack of knowledge. For them the sky is always falling and it falls on them who keep running with this fear. Have you heard of the saying, you attract fear towards you when you fear.

Superstitions :  If you see dictionary this means fear of unknown and unseen. This is the another exclusive right of poor people. They will do almost anything and everything including unthinkable due to superstition. In India every year thousands of children's life is cut short because there are people who still offer human lives to god hoping to please him or worship private parts of human in the name of God.

Cursing :  Poor people harbor so many negative thoughts and feelings and they are angry for this and that all the time. They are easily offended. To satisfy their hurt ego and mind they indulge in cursing. I am sure you watch Steve Harvey show he keep cussing and then there was a five year old girl who was in his show who kept him in her prayer. Steve Harvey may be rich now but its not hard to understand that he came from very poor family background. At least he honestly admits it in his shows and his cursing helps you to understand what he is saying. 

Have you ever paid close attention to the cursing ? this may give the one who curse an instant satisfaction of letting all out but that curse is so useless and it cant harm the one that is putting. its like burning if hate and hoping it will harm others.

Loudness : We all know some people who are loud, in opinion, when in anger, in dress ups, in hair style and body spray. Poor people disagrees in loud way, acts as victim, cry loud, complain loud and they fight loud. why cant they put forth their view point in polite manner ?   Polite what is that ? that is almost alien to 95% poor people. Those 5% of quite one will rise above poverty in due course of  time. All you have to do is, just keep on your watch list. why not you add yourself on that minority list !

Ganging up :  In 1950's society gang fight was normal but it seems the ganging up to fight purpose is yesteryear things. Today ganging up is something different, like bulling. There are some students who enjoy ragging in India and some victims of it. Forming a gang or leniency towards ganging up is a sign people are suffering from inferiority or superiority complex and they gain the power with their own small gang. Ganging up is a way to feel strong in front of opponent which is an animal instinct to face opponent. We are humans so, lets solve our problem as much as humanly possible.          


Crab Mentality  :  Poor are the people who instead of uplifting the others in the circle they like to pull people so that no one should be ahead from the slower crab. They are jealous if someone else will go ahead of them and this is totally against the rule open the door  for others so that you can enter in that door also. This is what many rich and successful people do.

Conspiracy theory believer : If you dig internet you will get plenty of conspiracy theory going on around us. One of the biggest conspiracy theory is that document made by Michael Moore. George Bush admin declare Gulf war against the Iraq was because he wanted to divert the mind of American to the Saddam, his oil rich nation. It was not for the people but for him and his family business. There are whole lot of people who will go hour and hour talking about such conspiracy theory but how many will look for the truth or move on in life for better.  Poor boy they have plenty of time for that baseless talk.   
          
It is not that these qualities can't be corrected but poor people feels at home with poor qualities. Only those who would like to rise above the poverty will shake these qualities off from them and move on to join the civilized people with better earning and life.

If you pay close attention to those who made their ways to better life it is only because they could leave behind the many qualities poor people clings so much. If you want to join the class of rich then shake it off from you at least 50% of the quality if not all that chains you with the poor class of people.
