Lewis Howes

But what wealthy people are doing is you make money, and then you want to invest as much as possible, and then you spend whatever's left.

So wealthy people invest and spend what's left, while the majority of people spend and invest whatever's left.

And the lesson of this mindset shift is that this separates people who build wealth from the people who stay stuck living paycheck to paycheck.

Now you might be watching or listening to this right now saying, Lewis, this is unfair.

I worked so hard to make money.

I'm grinding.

I've got two or three jobs.

I'm sacrificing my life to make this money.

It's really hard to develop and save the money.

And I've got bills and expenses.

I get it.

I have been broke on my sister's couch for a year and a half.

I have been in student loan debt.

I have lived off three credit cards.

I have not been sure about how to get out of that debt.

And it feels like you're suffocating.

It feels like you're in the deepest ocean and you're just scrambling to barely keep your mouth above the water.

And it's like coming on top of you.

Waves are coming on top of you.

It feels emotionally, physically, mentally suffocating.
