Self Control, discipline, and honest hard work; are things that are becoming more absent in our country. This video is not about controlling your emotions, being more self-aware, and giving yourself a break. I’m going to be tough, and call stupid stupid, and smart smart. It’s not that complicated.

1. Need Vs Want
- None of us are special, just because I think I need a new a new phone or a vacation does not mean I need it
- We all have the same exact needs as humans
- So here is the list of 4
Shelter, Utilities, Groceries and Transportation
- That’s it if you make $4,000 a month and these expenses are $2,000 dollars
- You should be saving $2,000 dollars a month
- That’s the truth
However: Be Honest and Be Real
- If you don’t want to do that
- Then don’t call your unnecessary spending, something you need, because you don’t
- And if instead of you getting out of debt in 5 months, it takes you 12 months
- Or instead, you saving $10k in 6 months it takes you 2 years
- Be really honest with yourself, and be willing to take that
2. Grow Up
- Money is not free, it costs you time
- that $1000 iPhone you have, cost you roughly 50 hours
- and no it’s not worth it (although you say it is for you )
Here is my point: As People Get older, they used to get wiser, but now it seems like a lot of people get dummer ( why? Because it’s constant competition with marketing and society )
- You would be working towards being debt-free
- You should have savings
- You should be working on some investments
- And you should be trying to get a paid off your house
Honest talk:
- Stop talking about getting rich and wealth and all this stuff
- Just get your house and your finances in order
- I rather have no need to work and an income of $2000 a month
- Than be making 10k or 20k months and be trading my time for money
3. Manipulation
- Your ideas are not your ideas
- Imagine growing up in the school system until you turn 18
- Spending 4 years in college
- And thousands of hours on a phone or just getting bad advice about a lot of stuff
You may think you are defending your values when you say:
- Credit cards are good
- I deserve a vacation
- Life is about enjoyment
- Don’t take things so seriously
- I love my job and I work it forever
Ask yourself, why do I think that way.
- It’s a lot of indoctrination
4. You Don’t deserve anything
- There is a simple principle in life
- If you plant, you harvest
- If you don’t plant you don’t harvest
The idea that:
- I work hard so I deserve more money or a better life
- At its core, we all have the life we deserve
- If you want to change that, you’ll have to be intentional
There is no way to get wealth by accident: even the lottery winner has to play the lottery
5. Become Patient
- Delayed gratification is so important
Income:
- Instead of spending what you traded time for money
- Invest the money and then spend the money your money made you
Instead of Getting a car you have wanted since you were a kid
- Get the 2005 Corolla for $2,000 and invest that $500 per month
Instead of going on vacation and to get rest from work
- Get 10 more jobs, just kidding
- Go on a road trip and see what’s around your own place
- Entertain yourself
