The world wants you to be mediocre. The best way to sell products, enforce taxes, and inflate prices is to have a society of losers.
We should all strive to be our best selves; this prevents us from being average. The new world order uses new catchphrases to keep us at the bottom.
Some of these terms are “quiet quitting,” “the great resignation,” and “work-life balance.” These worthless words give you a false sense of empowerment but lead to overall sadness and depression.
Selling Covered Calls for Passive Income
Humans are competitive. By nature, humans love to compete. We can see this in sports, but we can also see it in our regular lives.
In the suburbs, we call it Keeping Up with the Joneses. In dating, we call it the 80/20 rule: 80% of women chase 20% of men.
Being an average person is okay, but being average is not. What the heck does this mean? You can have average traits, size, or brains and still push yourself above your station.
Being better is not difficult. Your daily habits are the best way to get the most out of yourself. Your daily routine defines who you are and where you will finish.
Retirement Planning for the Average Person 2
Let’s look at the same young man from two different lifestyles. Josh is 5 feet 6 inches tall. He is 30 years old and makes $80,000 at his remote IT job.
Josh in 2020. This version of Josh wakes up right before work starts at 8 am. He finishes work at 5 pm and immediately turns on his video games. He spends the night watching three hours of TV shows on HBO.
Josh in 2022. This version of Josh wakes up at 5:30 am and goes for a run. He eats healthy and writes 500 words on his blog before work. Once he finishes work, he spends an hour on his consulting business. He reads for one hour and finally watches one episode of HBO before bed.
Which Josh will be successful? The 2022 Josh will have much more success in life than the 2020 variant. However, it is the same person with a different habit, routine, and mindset.
5 Takeaways from “Make Your Family Rich”
Becoming the 2022 version of Josh is challenging because the world tells you something vastly different.
They will have you believe you can be a free spirit, do whatever you want, spend how much you like, and isolate yourself and still be successful.
I am here to tell you that this image is complete garbage. To succeed, you must follow specific rules and guidelines; however, that doesn’t mean it is boring.
A look at the rules. Let’s look at some life rules that society doesn’t want you to learn.
- Relationships- You need people in your life. Trying to be an independent human will not lead to long-term positive outcomes.
- Routine- You need to become a morning person. The early bird gets the worm, the dollar, and the spouse.
- Work- Staying in the workforce for over 20 years will produce diminishing returns. Get in, save money, invest in assets, and get out.
- Fitness- Your fitness and health must be a top priority. It’s hard to think critically when your body is out of shape.
- Money- To have success, you must take care of your finances. Saving 50% of your income is a great start.
Finding your way. How do you find your way through all of the noise? Easy, what is your dream life? Who is your dream spouse?
Orange You Glad You Have Passive Income?
We pair with the spouse closest to ourselves. Marrying a fit person will be difficult if you don’t believe in fitness. It’s the same for waking up early, being responsible, and handling finances.
If you want to find a high-quality person, you must become a high-quality person. If you don’t know where to start, here are some tips.
- Find your Body Mass Index and ensure you are in weight standards for your height. If not, start working on it.
- Start reading books. No, not romance and mystery books; you’ll need self-improvement, finance, and business books. “Rich Dad, Poor Dad” is an excellent book to start your journey.
- Start waking up early. You should be up at least two hours before work. You can exercise or work on side projects.
- Be creative. The number one thing we forget in today’s society is creativity. Half of our brain is creative but gets pushed aside for sorting through work emails.
What does being above average look like? So, what does it look like to be above average? You actually look the same from the outside (unless you lose weight).
But inside, you are entirely different. When you take care of your body and read books, you will build massive confidence. You will feel like the “smartest person” in the room.
Why You Should Learn Creativity and Design
People judge you based on your appearance; don’t let the media fool you. If you want people to take you seriously, you should aim to be in weight standards.
Even if you can’t reach your BMI numbers, you can still be fit and eat healthily. Life isn’t about us all looking the same, but we should never give up or give in.
Reading books gives you confidence because you input other people’s successes and failures into your brain.
If you read a book on buying a home, you will be much more confident when purchasing a home. People gravitate to knowledge and confidence; you will exude an aura of familiarity and calmness.
Don’t Fear Delegation
Beware of false prophets. Be very careful of who you let inside your brain. Remember, if you are not a creator (producer), you are a consumer (customer).
That means you are the target audience. You should see the world as a bunch of massive entities that need your money.
You have Big Medicine that wants you to go to the hospital; they don’t want you healthy. Big Pharma wants you on meds; they will prescribe you anything.
Real Estate is a Mindset (Advanced)
Big Sports want you to buy the latest jerseys and TV packages; they don’t want you to read. You have Big News that wants to keep you in fear; they want you glued to the TV so they earn ad revenue.
Conclusion. The more mediocre you are, the more money everyone makes. The first step to changing your life is deciding what you want.
I am sorry that the world put you in this position. When I was growing up, people pushed me to my limits (in a good way).
Should You Manage Your Own Rental Properties
When I was 16, I worked at Arby’s. They allowed me to open the store on weekends at 5 am. I had the code for the alarm and was all by myself. Now, I bet a 40-year-old manager does this job.
Is the world specifically against you? No, you are just a cog in the system. You are just a social security number that can walk and talk.
However, you can be more. You can have a fantastic spouse, money in the bank, a great business, and wonderful kids.
The question is if you think you deserve these things. If so, what are you going to do about it? I know I took massive action. Good Luck!
