Vidura Niti mentions this:
बुद्धिः प्रभावस्तेजश्च सत्त्वमुत्थानमेव च ।
व्यवसायश्च यस्यास्ति तस्य वृत्तिभयं कुतः ॥
Buddhiḥ prabhāvas-tejaś-ca sattvam-utthānam-eva ca |
Vyavasāyaś-ca yasyāsti tasya vṛttibhayaṁ kutaḥ ||
Which means that ‘One who has the brain, chivalry, poise, power, enthusiasm and willingness to work, does not need to worry about how to earn a living.’
Any person who is armed with the intellect to navigate life's complexities, the honour to act with integrity and the grace to remain unshaken under pressure, is already wealthy.
External circumstances and temporary setbacks cannot hold back someone who is inherently resourceful and driven.
So when you focus on becoming a person of substance, the question of making a living answers itself, because you won't just survive, you will thrive.
