After I saw this post last night, I got curious. How does someone who wrote arguably the most popular book about building a rich mindset end up $1.2 billion in debt?
So I looked into it, then skimmed the book again to see if Kiyosaki had gone against his own advice. Here's what I found out: 👇 1/3
A billionaire once told me: When you feel stuck, go sit in the most expensive hotel in your city.
Order a coffee. It works every time.
Here's what that room does to you:
I watched my cousin sleep with a different woman every month.
I couldn’t even find one to stay the night.
So, I asked him the secret.
He said, “Say these 7 sentences that’ll get her in bed with you”:
3. Your spouse cannot be your entire world.
Your wife should be extremely important to you, but marriage doesn't mean you stop being an individual.
You still need your purpose,your health, your friendships, your hobbies, your personal growth.
The same applies to your wife.
A healthy marriage brings two whole people together. It shouldn't turn into one person losing themselves completely inside the relationship.
Love each other deeply, but continue becoming better people individually.
The quietest guy at my job just married a woman every man in the office had tried to talk to.
No pickup lines.
No “game.”
I asked him what he did.
He said: “I never tried to impress her. I made it safe to choose me.”
The 7 things he actually did:
She broke up with her boyfriend who had upgraded her to an uptown loft apartment and a Mercedes Benz but wants it all back now that the relationship has ended
She doesn't understand why he would do that
Yes, this is how stupid and entitled these women are
I was carrying 21kg I didn't need, a soft middle and a rounder face, and I had to get lean before fall hit. Here is how I did it, in 26 rules:
RULE 1. STOP RUNNING (your knees will thank you).
Improvement is a battle that must be fought each day anew.
Your next workout doesn't care how strong your last one was.
Your next essay doesn't care how popular your last one was.
Your next investment doesn't care how smart your last one was.
Your best effort, again.
One of the best recent podcasts on AI. Neil has a gift for explaining all of the jargon and insights simply.

Tony Robbins argues that the reason most people fall short of their potential has nothing to do with a lack of talent or ability.
The real bottleneck is something far simpler and far more powerful.
He puts it this way: “The Holy Grail between somebody taking action or not is one word: certainty.”
You can possess massive potential and still freeze in place if you don’t truly believe your effort will deliver the outcome you want. The sequence is straightforward: potential feeds belief, belief drives action, action produces results, and those results either strengthen or weaken the original belief.
When certainty is missing, the cycle turns destructive. Doubt leads to half-hearted effort. Half hearted effort yields weak results. Those weak results then get interpreted as confirmation “See, I told you this was a waste of time. I told you this wouldn’t work.” Belief shrinks further, action shrinks further, and the downward spiral accelerates.
The same mechanism works in the opposite direction. When you generate genuine certainty that a way forward exists, your sense of what’s possible expands. You take more decisive action. Better results arrive. Those results reinforce the certainty. Momentum builds.
This is why Robbins insists certainty outranks motivation. Motivation can spark a single burst of effort. Certainty keeps you moving long after the initial excitement fades and before the proof has fully arrived.
He points to Roger Bannister as living evidence. For decades the four-minute mile was treated as a physiological barrier. The moment Bannister broke it, the barrier dissolved in people’s minds. Within two years, dozens of other runners did the same. Human physiology hadn’t suddenly improved. Only the shared belief about what was possible had changed.
That’s the real cost of treating something as impossible. You don’t merely forecast failure, you reduce the action you’re willing to take, and in doing so you manufacture the very outcome you feared.
11 days of semen retention and no fap.
I have been a porn addict for well over 15 years.
There's nothing that has altered and changed my mind more than consumption of porn and jerking off.
There are many consequences, but I want to cover about four.
