As I was browsing through websites on global warming and non-profit organizations, I came across a website saturated with illustrations like the one above. Not just any illustrations, but those that we can relate to in life, and in mathematical diagrams! And yes, I was deeply immersed in trying to figure out the underlying messages in those diagrams.
The illustration above got my attention for quite a while. It depicts exactly what I feel the society now is facing - increased standards of living and the ugly rat race. With reference to Dictionary.com, the term "rat race" is defined as "any exhausting, unremitting, and usually competitive activity or routine, especially a pressured urban working life spent trying to get ahead with little time left for leisure, contemplation, etc." This, is what our working parents are doing. This, is what our working friends, colleagues and relatives are doing. Dreams are being sacrificed for the sake of keeping ourselves afloat in this deep pool of standards of living. Would you want to be in this rat race as well?

Then I saw this illustration as well. The amount you earn in the same amount that you spend. If you have the power to add in more branches to this cycle, would you? I know I would. I want to. I can't picture myself living in a "rut-tine" where further self-development is almost non-existent. Who wouldn't want to see savings, holidays, etc in their income cycle, isn't it?
The question now is, how do we earn more in order to add in more branches to our income cycle? I, have already found a way.
