Invest in people, including yourself. If your financial outcome isn’t what you wanted it to be, don’t take it personally. Adapt. Find a new direction. Take the lesson and recognize failure doesn’t mark your worth as a person, but it does provide a roadmap for where to grow.

Invest in people, not outcomes. Having a general plan for guiding your children is good. Micromanaging their decisions so they never grow beyond your control is smothering and will lead to either a weak adult or resentful estrangement. Educate your children for their own path.

If you’re angry about outcomes, you’re not investing in people. You’re investing in your own vision for how other people should act. This is a fool’s proposition and leads to endless frustration. Invest in people. Adapt to outcomes by reinvesting in new ways to reach success.
