The Right Tools


With all the distractions in life I've almost forgotten my love for writing on this blog. Venting, and sharing positivity, or insight. Don't worry my dears, until my brain is fully incapable of functioning, I won't stop writing.

Today I am reading a manuscript about my favorite topic, money management. And although I'd love to delve more deeply into the topic, that is not what I'm going to discuss today. Today I'm going to talk about the tools we use to get to success.

How many times have we heard the phrase "You need to have to right tools to do the job"? Probably 100 times with in the last year alone. So as this substantial piece of advice repeats over and over again in our heads, it's no wonder we become fixated on getting the right tools. Hunting down the latest IPhone model. Standing in line for hours to purchase that new $2500+ Nikon. Working our butts off to get into the most prestigious universities all with the intention of "having the right tools."

So now you have the right tools, but do you know how to use them? Enter in phrase number two: "It's not about what tools you use, it's how you use them." What sense would it make to buy the most advanced version of Adobe Photoshop if you have no clue how to use it? None at all!

If your objective is to be the best, you must learn how to use the tools you have first. Once we have learned how to use basic simplicities, it becomes almost second nature to master more complex things.

Short and simple yet still immensely profound.

Enjoy
