@FinPlanKaluAja1 True !

@asemota The book has 23 chapters or so and no dull moments throughout. The idea is that if you want to invest or go into business, there are things that will never change ('same as ever'). The book serves as a guide.

@olumidecapital I preordered on Audible months before it was released, listened to it, and was compelled to buy the hardcopy and I am reading the hardcopy for the 3rd time

The true test of character is whether you manage to stand by your values when the deck is stacked against you.
If personality is how you respond on a typical day, character is how you show up on a hard day.

[Isah Adamu @AdamuIa]

Growth requires much more than a mindset, it begins with character skills.
Character is often confused with personality, but they are not the same .

The reason to win a game is to be free of it🤔

The real currency of life is attention. Money can't buy time, & time's wasted if you're not present. Focus is key 💡

@morganhousel The most valuable financial asset is not needing to impress anyone.

This is an asset on your personal balance sheet that can be more valuable than anything else.

When ur expectations grow faster than your income, u will never be happy with ur money.

When u have a complete absence of expectations that things would have or could have been better than they are now. Then u get to enjoy what u have, what you are doing #Theartofspendingmoney

[Isah Adamu @AdamuIa]

Never focus on what money can do for you without a clear understanding of the cost of acquiring more of it.
It’s so much easier to fantasize about achievements while ignoring the stress of the process - rejection, long hours, uncertainty, time. #theartofspendingmoney

[Isah Adamu @AdamuIa]

If you're feeling unhappy, throwing more money at the problem probably won't fix it. Happiness is complex, and money's just one tiny piece of the puzzle. You can't buy the things that truly make life worth living – like meaningful relationships, good health, a sense of purpose.

You can be financially poor but psychologically rich , this means that when the gap between what you have and what you want is small.
Once you see someone master this equation, you will never think about wealth the same and this is the best measure wealth.

[Isah Adamu @AdamuIa]

All happiness in life is just the gap between expectations and circumstances. The person who has everything but wants even more feels poorer than the person who has little but wants nothing else. @morganhousel

[Isah Adamu @AdamuIa]

I think true test of intelligence is if you get what you want out of life, and there are two part to that , one is getting what you want so you know how to get it , and the second is wanting the right things, knowing what to want in the first place.

[Isah Adamu @AdamuIa]

You'd be richer if you were less distracted.
A distracted mind is a weak mind.🤔

[Isah Adamu @AdamuIa]

If you were not conscious of how you build what you are building, how would you explain what you didn’t understand?

[Isah Adamu @AdamuIa]

Any result you can not repeat, the first one was a mistake
