I knew from the day I met you that I wanted to be the "not smartest" person I YOUR room. Your courage to break free from your conditioned mindset and take action to become the person you were meant to be is inspiring. Seeing your social presence growth and impact over the last year has shown me that the dream is real if you adopt these new habits. Also, never heard of Loom. I am signing up now.

    Loved this video and I feel most people would take a look at the title and coil back given you are sharing what you stopped doing to become a millionaire, it most likely hits like the word budget... sounding restrictive in nature, but ultimately setting you free.. The reality is someone has to change their mindset and lifestyle to get to millionaire status...

Many people told me to take that video down. I told myself: "No. I want people to see the human in me, and to let them know that it is all a matter of learning, growing and improving, and doing what you love.", so thank you! This is such an important message for a happy life. ❤❤❤

    It depends on what are your priorities. I’m a caregiver and seen elder going to the next life. Their advice “enjoy life enjoy family, and if you are gonna work do it to enjoy what you do and enjoy what you worked for. Do not be a slave to money or to your job. What’s the point of working and making a lot of money if at the end you are not going to enjoy it. Just recently I was working with a man who worked hard all of his life, he said he never big a new car that he didn’t know what the smell was, not because he didn’t have the money, but because he chose to save that money to have more for his retirement. Ask me where he is now, and if he is enjoying what he made. Others are though.

    I think "Stop Pursuing Active Income" chapter has a fault. The example of making a youtube course, specifically, and making it perfect ("as comprehensive as possible"). It sounds like a suggestion to make a huge project right away. But one really needs a lot of experience and dedication to complete it. This only applies to well experienced and extremely internally motivated people. I guess that's what it takes to be a millionaire, but IMO this part has to be said. Also striving for perfection goes against 80\20 rule, which IMO is essential to being efficient with time.
