We live in a world of hierarchies
Here’s the thing: we live in a hierarchical world. You always have someone better, someone more important than the other/others, no matter the context. Denying this is to completely miss the point of reality.
There’s one guy among your friends whose opinion is more important than everybody else’s. Everyone wants him around more than anyone else. When you’re in a relationship, one partner is more important than the other. Argue with your feelings.
Everyone in your family has that one member they hold in high regard. Even if it has nothing to do with him, he must approve decisions before they go into effect. I could go on.
Start working your way up if you’re not the most important.
Remember, Important = valuable.
You don’t have value if you’re not important. Money plays a huge role in it. So the first thing you should do is make as much money as you can.
But money isn’t all…
It’s all about certain elements as you go higher. It’s easier to play the game when everyone’s got money. You realize if money is the common denominator, then you gotta find other things you can do to be relevant.
