The first car I ever had was
an old Ford Escort.
It had 150,000 miles.
The passenger door
was jammed.
So when I drove
my mom, she had
to go in and out of the
drivers side.
I remember back then
we’d go to this one
bakery every week.
There, mom and I
would pick up a bunch
of near-expired,
leftover bread.
And we didn’t just get
a little bit.
We got enough,
so we had enough bread for
2 meals a day for
the rest of the week.
Not only was I poor,
I was also an
opportunity-junkie.
Anything that sounded
like I could make
a quick buck, I WAS IN...
I would jump from
program to program.
Seminar to seminar.
And the more I chased
fortune, the more I
dug myself into a hole.
Before I knew it, I lost
my mom’s entire life
savings (I’m sorry mom
I put you
through that).
On top of that, I put
myself in $150,000.00
dollars of debt.
Now years later, I’m a
self-made, multimillionaire
and I got a Bentley.
And while the journey always
looks easy on social media
and you can feel like
life works out for everyone
but you, it’s not true.
All you need to do is
what I did back then.
You just need to look
in the mirror and
realize if your life sucks,
it’s your own damn fault.
Not your parents fault.
Not your friends fault.
Not the government, the
school system, or
your country’s fault.
No.
It’s your own fucking fault
for not being the man or
woman who is skilled
enough to get what you want.
Now even though
it’s your own fault, the good
news is you can do
something about it.
You can always choose
to move a little closer to
being the person you need
to be to reach your goals
every day.
And step-by-step...
day by day... your life will
get better and better.
And soon enough, you will be
the success story people
talk about on social media.
You will be the one
people call lucky.
But deep down you know,
you weren’t born lucky.
You were just born different.
While everyone else
plays the victim,
you chose to be responsible
for your life.
Comment below if you’re
ready to be different and
you’re ready to be responsible.
