To achieve this level of wealth, requires some questionable ethics, risk taking, corruption, theft
… and you may even need to have killed a few people along the way.
I’m serious.
A man said to the Prophet (ﷺ), "Advise me!" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Do not become angry." The man asked (the same) again and again, and the Prophet (ﷺ) said in each case, "Do not become angry."
what a privilege is it is to afford a gym, buy healthy food, pay bills, have legs that walk, eyes that see, a brain that functions, work every day, and take our bodies to their full potential.
look the rich don’t split bills, that’s why they’re richer than you.
you spend 30 mins at dinner calculating who ordered what, wealthy people just pick up the whole bill with no calculator, no awkward convo or annoying gestures, they even leave bigger tip than expected.
my dad taught me something i’ll never forget: the person who fights over small money will never be trusted with big money.
being cheap is expensive.
it costs you opportunities, relationships, goodwill and trust. refuse to be cheap.
BE DELUSIONALLY OPTIMISTIC
Wake up excited. Believe that everything will work out for you. Pursue your dreams as if they are inevitable. Come back stronger. More confident. More capable. Inspire others. Affirmations. Manifest what you want. Feel as if you already have it. Imagination is your power.
The sun rises even after the darkest nights. Be like the sun.
Stand up no matter what.
Never lose hope. It will all work out.
FAKE IT TILL YOU MAKE IT
Become arrogant. Make others gossip about you. Break social rules. Be unapologetic about your actions. Act from your highest will. Remain hopeful no matter what. Walk like you own the place. Move like a winner. Rest because you deserve it. Get things because you want them.
Reality responds to those who live as if they already have the things they’ve always wanted.
Hard work is a lie.
Let reality bend to your will.
