RE: Comment contest//Best advice I have ever received//10 SP prize 🏆
Best advice? Mind your own business would make a good one but it's saving for that rainy day and... don't share. My mom always fought the "sharing part" and it's a good advice. You can't share what you don't have or can't miss. Also never borrow anything! Those who borrow have nothing and won't pay back. They don't care, believe you are rich can miss it. All you get is a ton of excuses. It's frustrating, makes mad and kills family bonds and friendships. Both fake cause paying back is a decent thing to do.
I love the first piece of advice! As for the second, I have to admit that, unfortunately, I've always followed the philosophy of "mi casa es tu casa," sharing what’s mine with others. Over time, though, I’ve realized that your mother was right. Sadly, I think it’s too late to turn back now. Some things you do naturally and innocently, despite the setbacks you encounter. If it’s in your nature, you’ll keep making the same mistakes, but I’m trying to work on this, to be better prepared in my next life.

You mean like 'mind your own business' or saving like the grasshopper while you are the ripped off backstabbed ant? Or are you the creative musician not appreciated?

The perception of not being recognized drives me to constantly improve, but I realize this can turn into a vicious cycle that may lead to nothing positive, or perhaps it might. However, I believe that who we are depends solely on ourselves: if we give our best, we should feel satisfied and fulfilled, regardless of how others perceive us. Your reference to the fable made me smile, it was by Aesop.

The question is: who should recognize you? If that doesn't happen... indeed you can try to improve but to what point? An other option is to change the 'environment'.
If it comes to a business for example. You can keep trying to make that client happy or say: Sorry, I can't help you this is not what I like to sell, this isn't me.

The moral of the fabel changed as time did. It wasn't about the hard working ant but the unappreciated artist.. Strange, how we are still fighting to be noticed.

Awesome. Right on target, especially the "not borrowing" part. To lend is to lose... Thank you for mentioning this contest to me.
Great, you joined!
