Emotionally Distraught About The Wrong Thing

My absolute favorite passage in Seth Godin’s new book, This Is Strategy, is when he refers to the fact that a construction worker doesn’t get emotionally upset about the hammer.

So why would someone who is trying to increase their net worth emotionally upset with money/budget?

Far better to see those elements for what they are: tools.

Of course, if the tool you have isn’t working, find a better tool. But if it’s a working tool and it’s causing to be emotionally distraught, that’s not a problem of the tool’s.
