The Burden Behind Responsibilities

As it is, there are some responsibilities we always tried to evade by all means especially when they are compulsory, sudden yet we know we aren't ok enough to do them, more reason why some people always try to run from billings especially when it is too much. There are times I always wonder why people find it hard to believe some set of people can't go broke all because they don't use to bill others or they just work their shit out or solve their money problems without bothering anyone. Well, somehow I'm in that category but at times I always find it worrisome even when people that suppose to believe I'm broke don't, and yet always always make me think i have one tree i do pluck money from.

I kind of watched a nollywood movie today on youtube titled "For a season" where a guy wasn't moving forward in life and relationship wise all because he earn little yet has lot of family burden on his neck financially, maybe he was the only guy and the duty was too much on his neck and he had no other option or know what to really do, he earn 80k month and yet nothing to show for it, if he is not paying hospital bills of his mom today, he will be buy his sister seizure drugs tomorrow and lot of even his gf started complaining of marriage talk and all after 4years relationship and his work wasn't helping. Somehow I felt there are things he can easily avoid just to make things easier for him, which was to have more source of income if possible, in this computer age, no one stay focus on just 1 job that is paying penny as salary. Someone once told me, doing a salary based job especially when the pay is poor is like a scam, you are building someone else future while they are robbing you of yours, because any small mistakes, all your effort will be thrown at your face like shit

There are lot of things that we are someone scared of that do make us take up some responsibilities especially when we know we shouldn't and the one that really top the list is fear of failure, at some point we know there are lot of expectations places on us that we are somehow afraid not to do because we know if we don't fulfil such obligations, we will be failing not just ourselves but those that place such expectations on us. Most times it is best to prioritise your sanity and well being above others if need be because at time I do believe if you aren't available those problem will still have solutions because they will surely meet someone else, also we are in a kind of world where when you solve one person problem, they do become dependant and one problem solved equals to two new incoming problems. Run if you can and avoid unnecessary burden from responsibilities🤣🤣

The billing makes some people think abnormally because it is just too much at some point. And like you rightly said, there are ways to avoid these unnecessary billings and for me is by saying a simple but hard NO!

When you have do but if you don't Learn to accept the fact that you don't and say no. There will always be problems and you are not always going to be there.

It was really nice reading this, thanks for sharing 😊

For some reason I was anticipating where he committed suicide because that’s what was in the movie I watched😂

Do you know what’s funny? If has a side chick😂, that means another 50m bill every month

Someone asked me for a favor and I said if it's within my power I'll do it. The person then replied yes I know it's within ur power.
The person went ahead to ask me for a particular amount of money,which I don't have from anywhere 🤦.
