The Don

[Tai Lopez @tailopez]

Jeff Bezos was right, you can be grinding for 4 years with no results and in the 5th year you can become the biggest thing on the planet.

[Mr. Czar @Mrczar_]

Intelligence is not something you should be proud of or show off; especially if you’re a capitalist who wants to be rich.

Look around you. Have you seen the skits people watch? Dumb stuff!

Jarvis and Peller make the exact kind of content Gen Z loves.

VDM can sway public discourse for an entire week.

These are not stupid people. They’re smart in a very specific way: they understand how the masses think, and they know how to command attention.

There was a BBN season where a housemate was evicted and people were tweeting, “Good riddance; she been dey do too much book book.”

And who did the masses want? Mercy Eke, because big bumbum, and hot romance.

That should tell you something.

Your problem is that you take the masses too seriously. At the biological level, we are higher animals driven by fear, lust, hunger, status, and other base desires.

We just cover it up with clothes and a little conditioning.

Animals is what we are.

That’s what you tap into.

That’s why forex is such a favorite of the masses: they see outliers flashing cars and money and they want it too; the same way an ape wants a banana another ape is holding.

It’s biology.

It’s how the world works.

To win, you have to think, talk, and behave like the masses. Don’t fight it.

Don’t mock people who follow Peller and Jarvis; that arrogance is how you miss the lesson. Be humble. Observe them.

That’s how you learn to leverage mass behavior and move up in this world.

Lock yourself in a room and study until you collapse, true brilliance comes from obsession.

[Gary Vaynerchuk @garyvee]

The quicker you act on realizing you have to attack life, not let it happen to you, the quicker you enjoy this journey versus wasting it on stress, anxiety, and worry

[D🪿 @Devsthetix]

my college professor once told us: "go have fun the entire day, but once you're back home, study for just 2 hours. you'll be in a completely different league"

very few know how deep this is!

[Alex Hormozi @AlexHormozi]

I'd rather be a failure than a coward.

[lynk @lynk0x]

A man without money is a man without voice.

You could be the wisest person in the room, but if your pockets are empty, no one listens.

Family and relatives are only nice when you have something to offer.

Get-up every single day build your relationship with God and work like crazy.

Fix your finances because money fights many battles.

[Stijn Noorman @stijnnoorman]

If you solve your problems it’s called self improvement.

If you solve other people's problems it’s called business.

If you solve the world’s problems it’s called purpose.

[Kunal Gandhi @kunalvg]

Work hard. More than folks you know in your circle.

12 hours. 16 hours. After 10 PM. Doesn't matter.

Work hard. And you will outsmart the smartest folks you know.

[Shubhvani @shubhvanii]

The person you will become in five years depends on:

The books you read
The food you eat
The people you spend time with
The habits you adopt
The conversations you have

[Elizabeth🥳 @Deseiye_]

A man sat next to me at a roadside restaurant, staring at his phone, smiling nonstop.

Curious, I asked, “Good news?”

He said, “Yeah my daughter just sent me her first salary.”

I smiled and said, “That’s beautiful.”

He nodded, then went quiet for a moment before adding,
“She told me to buy something nice for myself but I think I’ll just save it. I still remember when I couldn’t even afford her school fees.”

A few minutes later, his food arrived.

Before touching it, he took a picture and sent it to her.

Then he whispered, almost to himself,
“At least now she knows I’m eating well.”

That’s when it hit me.

Some parents don’t need repayment.
They just need reassurance that all their sacrifices meant something.

[Dear Self. @Dearme2_]

Sex feels different when you never masturbate.

Getting drunk feels different when you have reasons to celebrate.

Spending money feels different when you’re rewarding yourself.

Cheat meal feels different when you keep a strict diet.

Earn your fun.

[Patrick Bet-David @patrickbetdavid]

No matter what you do, you’ll be criticized.

Win, they call you greedy.
Lose, they call you lazy.

So stop performing for them.
Pick a noble path you can live with.

You won't win over all your critics! EVER!

Do you!

[Shubhvani @shubhvanii]

If you grew up in the trenches, you already know this:

The dumber the people around you are, the more aggression you must show to be respected.

The smarter the people around you are, the less aggression you must show to be respected.

This is an unwritten law of human hierarchy.

[Tai Lopez @tailopez]

Use your unfair competitive advantage. Height, rich parents, a connected friend group, high IQ. No shame in that.

[Lawrence King @lawrencekingyo]

How to get ahead of 99% of people out there -

Work for 4 hours a day without getting distracted and don't quit in the first 90 days

The bar is genuinely THAT Low

[Fit And Fortune @FitAndFortune]

Before you die as a man, do this:

• See your 6-pack once.
• Deadlift 2x your bodyweight.
• Do 10 pull-ups straight.
• Travel solo.
• Quit something that’s killing you. Job. Habit. Relationship.
• Build something of your own. Business. Project. Doesn’t matter. Just yours.
• Be the fittest in your group at 40.
• Wake up at 45 with no medications.
• Look in the mirror feeling proud and inspired.

Most men will never get here.

[ARROW @phresh_arrow]

[Alex Hormozi @AlexHormozi]

To succeed you just need to do so many reps is unreasonable that you fail.

[Justin Welsh @thejustinwelsh]

The older I get, the more I realize that speaking your mind bluntly and directly is the fastest way to build relationships with the right people.
