Do not speak about how rich you are in front of a poor person. Do not speak about how happy you are in front of a sad person. Do not speak about how healthy you are in front of a sick person. Do not speak about how wonderful your life is in front of someone going through a hard time. Don’t waste time chasing validation or living for other people. Build your own foundation, stay disciplined, and away from the distractions. 18-29 is the time to grind, not party. Focus on being better, not fitting in. Focus on positive energy and people: "Surround yourself with people who FORCE you to level up. Because if you don’t, You’ll fall behind. Every time I’m around the right people, My focus sharpens, My decisions get smarter, It’s not luck; It’s alignment. Success is contagious when you’re in the right circles.
