Don’t Watch This! You Don’t Know The Full Story

I am about to pass on some timeless wisdom to you. Don’t worry about what other people have because you have no idea what they did to get it. This does not mean that everyone has to sell themselves to get rich, but everything comes with a price. Some NFL players end their careers with a lot of money, but their brains are not the same. Some are willing to pay that price, and others are not.

What my dad was always trying to help me see is there is still more to the story than what you think you know. His point was not that people are evil or wrong. But everyone can seem like an overnight success if you don’t ask the right questions and pay attention.

• Worry about yourself, not others

Look at How They Got What They Have First ?

Look at what they gave up. That student that go straight As they gave up parties and fun to study. Are you willing to give that up? If you are not, then it does not matter what they have. It should be irrelevant because it costs something you are not willing to pay.

Sometimes you can’t find out how people get their wealth. They keep it hidden for a good reason or because they are living a lie, which brings me to the point of this entire article.

• What are you willing to lose?

Don’t Watch This!!! ?

Growing up in Toronto, this was the saying we used to always bark at each other. What it means is to stop paying attention to my life. Stay in your lane. Don’t worry about me! Let me live my own life. Stack your own habits and worry less about what they are doing. 

For example.

Someone could say, “Yoo where did you get those shoes?” And the answer is, “don’t watch this son.”

Understand? Good!
