The presence of money and power changes a person. These things leave a big imprint on behavior, character traits. But their impact is not always negative, everything can go according to different scenarios.
It takes effort to get money in large quantities or to take a managerial position. You need to learn a lot, become a professional or an excellent specialist, and all this changes the attitude towards people, events and resources. For those who have not passed this path, who have not strived to develop, the transformation seems to be very significant, and very often it is negative.
The path to the goal
Everyone can live better. Opportunities exist in the life of any person, but in order to take advantage of them, you need to do something. Usually painstaking work, a responsible attitude to life and the ability to correctly assess circumstances give results. At the same time, there is no time for stupidity, there is no desire to spend hours, money on unnecessary things, I do not want to help someone for free. A person sets a goal and goes to it, everything that does not help to move is swept aside. From the outside it seems to people that negative changes have occurred, because there is no longer the former sensitivity, attentiveness, separation of problems with them, but this is only on the one hand.
The aspirant understands what he needs and goes without looking back. It forms new principles of life that help to strengthen the position, which provide financial stability and the ability to achieve even more. And at the same time, the desire to listen to other people's complaints, talk about trifles and just spend time without a specific activity disappears. A person develops, and from lower positions it seems that he becomes more callous and ruthless.
Cons of power and money
The possession of funds makes a person very attractive to others. Friends, relatives, acquaintances constantly ask for help. At the same time, they often cannot pay for the service, they believe that they should be helped just like that. There are hundreds of such petitioners, to help each one means taking away your time and other reserves that could be multiplied. And if at the beginning a person agrees to lend a hand, then when there are too many supplicants, he refuses.
And again, from the point of view of the applicant, it seems that the person has changed, that money and power have ruined him, but he simply uses his circumstances correctly and understands that he cannot be spent on everyone. It is impossible to help everyone, it will not work to enter the situation of every acquaintance. For example, a person has become a leader in a company, if he makes concessions to everyone, if employees start to be late, do not come to work or do poor quality work, the company will go broke. He cannot allow people, even very close ones, to behave at random. But this does not mean that his severity and exactingness is a sign that he is spoiled by power. This is just the ability to properly manage circumstances.
Power and money can show the negative sides of a person, but more often this happens when position and income are not earned, but comes as a gift from other people. Then people sometimes become arrogant, behave arrogantly. But these are the exceptions rather than the rules.
