    How do you stop hating yourself?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    I never liked myself for almost my entire life until this year. This year's the first year where the miraculous thing happened where I looked at myself in the mirror, and can appreciate the person I'm looking at in the eye. What changed? I learned to take responsibility for myself and my...

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I fully believe that pains and failures are what makes humans stronger. People will continue to be average, until they feel pain and suffering so much, they have no way but to change. When you feel all that is negative about yourself, don't attempt to ignore it. Feel it fully. It will...

    See things as they are, and accept the truth. This is important as well. Many people ignore the truth, or choose to hide the truth of themselves, to themselves. If you are able to realize that you are weak, right now, and you accept it, you'll honestly feel the pain of sucking at things and...

    Yes we're really saying the same things. I just assumed the path of entrepreneurship means one definitely works at getting rich as well. It's a given, so I have come to subconsciously expect an abundance of it, and be grateful for it. However, it isn't the only thing available in life to aim...

    I appreciate that you're capable to provide a donation to others Vigilante. I believe what Wuz meant was that proactively, the act of giving does allow one to eventually receive. The average person proactively tries to receive, but did nothing valuable to deserve it.

    I actually aspire to be a billionaire. So I think the 70k income gauge is too low. Why a billionaire? - Because at this level, the kind of things that I'll be able to do to challenge the imperfections in the world would be amazing. Money is in my opinion, this really, really useful sword...

    It's interesting that this thread has taken a course of its own. I intended for it to potentially inspire those who were going to suffer from aiming to make money thinking it's going to be the destination. For the start-up, so that if their focus was on making money from dropshipping, for...

    That's exactly right. What IceCreamKid said is from experience. If start-up founders and entrepreneurs are able to understand this, they'd be able to create something truly amazing and be successful at it. Be true to yourself, and express what you truly appreciate even in your business. Don't...

    Dear Rogue, This is one of the reasons why I've written this post. It's also meant to say, there can be a good experience making money. But the goal, preferably shouldn't just solely revolve around it, or else the founder would be missing out on too much. So there is an alternative, which is...

    I was trying to ground the mood of those who were reading this post by that statement. Mindset affects things.
