Which mindset will make you more successful?

1. Following the money, power and influence to secure your interests. While doing that, working on happiness health and self development. Doing what works for your benefit. Doing what makes you wealthier, more powerful, and more influential.

2. Following how and where you can add most value. While doing that, securing yourself and your interests. Also working on self development. Doing what adds value. Being too valuable they can't ignore you.

____________
When I try the 1st mindset, I am afraid I will be of limited value that I won't be very successful anyways.

When I try the 2nd mindset, I sometimes find people who attack or bring me down for reasons I do not get, probably because they can.

What do you think?
