Mad About Money|How to keep the most toxic people at bay

THE YOUNG BLOOD IS ALWAYS CONSIDERED TO BE FULL OF RAGE AND POWER. BE IT THEIR RELATIONSHIPS, THEIR CAREERS OR THEIR EDUCATION OR THEIR DREAMS, THE YOUNG PEOPLE WILL ALWAYS TRY TO DESTROY EVERYTHING IN THEIR REACH. THIS KIND OF A BEHAVIOR GOES ON IN A PUZZLING LOOP THAT HAS AN IMMENSE IMPACT ON EVERYTHING IN LIFE. THIS BELIEF, THAT YOU WILL DESTROY ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING THAT YOU COME IN CONTACT WITH, IS THE ANXIETY THAT’S WORKING IN THE BACKGROUND FOR THEM. BUT WHY DOES THIS HAPPEN?

Why Do The Young Knock Down Things They Can't Do Without

The psychology behind the ‘self-sabotage’ syndrome:

The logic behind this kind of behavior is as children if you are deprived and suddenly in your youth you are given the same thing which you desired in a very teasing way, you automatically want to destroy it. From affection, security, appreciation, safeguarding are some of the things that the young folks are desperately looking for when they were kids. By the time they grow up starved of these things they feel they don’t deserve and are not worthy of it and hence destroy it even if others try to offer it to them. Just like an aficionado, the young folks live with this subconscious awareness that they will certainly destroy whatever good that is happening to them.

This self-sabotage not only destroys the person who is inflicting it but also to the near and dear ones who are suffering this infliction. The simple cause of this kind of behavior is the defense mechanism that the young folks have learnt to cope with separate pain and anxiety. Here’s three parts of what is the behavior all about, how you can overcome it and why does it happen.

Starting With A Silver Spoon Is Not Essential To Be Wealthy

Yes, probably we all envy the Mittals, the Kapoors, the Mallyas! Not because they are billionaires, but because the coming generation would also inherit the wealth and affluence that has been there since years. Perhaps, the great grandson of Vijay Mallya would be able to spend his entire life slurging and indulging into luxury without even stepping out of his house! Probably Taimur Khan, son of Saif and Kareena, would get casted in some big budgeted flick by some renowned filmmaker, to get launched without even struggling to show his acting skills.
