If you want to be like the 1%, you have to abandon the 99%. How you live, how you work, and how you communicate are the key elements to creating a whole new world.
There’s not a human being on this planet that doesn’t have the same opportunity to live a magnificent life. The difference is what we do with the time we have. We can fall in line with the status quo and be complacent, or step outside the box, remove our ego, and pay attention to the simplicity of the answers to everything we’re wanting right in front of us.
