Are you an angel or a cockroach?

Sharing with you this video (10:32 min on cockroach theory https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-3CB4_a33o&feature=youtu.be). Vishen Lakhiani is a successful entrepreneur who once felt that he was like a cockroach and he coined it as cockroach theory. This is indeed true when a self-employed person or a business owner has to do everything and anything and doing many things that are beyond the scope of an employee. Especially now due to the #COVID situation. Things are more challenging for business owners and I do hope this video can motivate them to press on.
There is another "cockroach theory" for me. For those who saw my Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/p/B_r4zsSHj2Q/), there were times when I feel like the world thinks that I am a cockroach - what I want is to support the people around me in financial planning era but they see me as a cockroach which they can't wait to get rid of. Instead of feeling negative about this, I am writing here to thank those who believe in what I do and know where my heart lies (please read my post https://sandylim.wixsite.com/sandy1467/post/why-change) and they have been given me encouragement to persevere on. A big thank you!

The value that I stand by and will want to anchor myself in the things I do are: connectedness, life-long learning, impacting others
It is not about having more money when I change the field of work. In actual fact, I had earned more in monetary terms previously. What I want is to be able to connect more to many others, to be able to learn (financial and metaphysics knowledge) and use my knowledge to impact others.
What are the values that you stand by? What do you want to attain in this lifetime? Feel free to share with me as well!
