Transcript
These are a few things we wish someone told us sooner. The world doesn't reward people that rank, it rewards people that do. So whatever you wanna create in this life, I want you to just make it exist in its simplest form rank then you can perfect it over time. Your slogan for the year should be simple. Where your fear is, there your task is. Lean directly into the things that make you the most afraid if you want to build the life you've always wanted for yourself. The simplest way to guarantee you become a millionaire in this lifetime is to open up a Rank IRA and max out every single year. You can put up to $7,500 a year the moment you turn 18. Tier more that you give to people and try to truly serve others, the more life will reward you with in return. One of the best quotes I've ever heard from Zig Ziglar. You can have everything you want out of life if you just help enough other people get what they want. Protein, fiber, vitamin d, and sleep. Get more of it. Add a magnesium to that, and you're off to the races. Magnesium threonate is tier. Magnesium glycinate, also great. Pick one, roll with it. I can't stress this next one enough, but you need to stop gooning because your inability to control your lust and your addiction to corn is slowly ruining your life. Stop gooning. Everyone loves to say life is short, but life is a lot longer than you think, and nothing you want is gonna happen overnight. But if you stop now, it's never gonna fucking happen. Set a goal and stay consistent until you achieve it. The people you choose to have in your life will play a massive impact on your life's trajectory. That can be good or bad. It's ultimately up to you. This applies to friends, family members, and especially romantic partners. So choose wisely. The biggest regret you'll ever have is not chasing your own dreams because you fear the judgment of other people that are so insignificant to your life. You only have one life. Live it for you. It isn't easy, but it is simple. Don't overcomplicate it.
