People will spend $10k on bottles and a table at the club but have never been to Europe. Make it make sense

You don’t become dangerous by learning more. You become dangerous by needing less. Less validation, less approval, less reassurance. The fewer emotional requirements you carry into interactions, the harder it becomes for others to control your behavior.

if you spend all day at a fish market, you’ll leave smelling like fish, even if you never touched one but spend your day in a perfume shop and you’ll carry the scent even if you didn’t buy anything, that’s how environment works. it rubs off, whether you realize it or not. stay around complainers and everything starts to look negative. stay around excuse makers and growth feels optional but get around people who move with purpose, you’ll feel it. get around people who live in gratitude, you’ll start to see differently. the scent of your environment will always follow you.

Every unsuccessful person I know believes the game is rigged. Every successful person knows the game is rigged and learns how to play.

The self talk and positive manifestation is real. Start talking positive.

I am slowly becoming that relative you see only when there's a funeral🥱

One sentence from Jordan Peterson that's worth remembering. “The direction you're heading is more important than the speed at which you're going.”

you seriously need to have an unshakeable belief in your ability to create your own reality.

Dad buys land for $100K. Today it's worth $5M. Dad doesn't sell because selling triggers huge tax bill. Dad borrows against it instead. A loan isn't income. So no tax. Dad lives off the loans for decades. Dad dies still owning the land. Kids inhert at $5M basis. Kids sell & owe nothing to the lRS. The $4.9M gain? Gone This is exactly what wealthy families do to avoid taxes and build generational wealth.

There’s no going down anymore, only up.

This is how locked in you need to be.

Sober lifestyle e monate hey. Don’t let them fool you.

You assume people will act fairly if you act fairly. They won’t. People act in alignment with their incentives, not your expectations. If the structure rewards selfishness, selfishness appears.

@stats_feed SA's figure reflects young demographics, high unemployment driving job hunts/education, and social media as income tool (content, gigs, trends). Japan's older pop + work culture yields less. Same hours, different economic realities... Context > headline.

South Africans spend 9h 24m online daily. Japan spends 3h 56m. Same 24 hours, different planets.

@Xeer the biggest flex is disappearing whenever you want

i have a friend who’s self made rich-rich. guy goes completely off the radar most days. nobody knows where he physically is. bali? london? dubai? miami? posts next to nothing. then randomly one story appears. a single espresso on a marble counter, receipt in a language you can’t read. or him having tea somewhere in the mountains. then gone again for weeks 😂 meet him in person and he’s in a plain tshirt and slippers. no logo, no watch, nothing. when you’ve actually made it there’s nothing to prove and no one left to impress. lesson in that.

@Cobratate To be hated, you must at least have something worth noticing. Haters are evidence that you aren't nothing.

Learn to enjoy all forms of attention and haters become powerless.
