I’m going to preference by saying I am someone who is planning on massively growing my financial wealth. But I will say that the want for money is an illusion. Money is only representation of value. If I told you. I will give you a million dollars. You’d most likely say yes. But if I added that in return you have to live on a deserted island by yourself for the rest of your life. Well that changes things. There is story after story of people who got wealthy and absolutely hated their life. That shows that money doesn’t inherently make you happy. My finances are just a tool to what I REALLY want. Don’t fall into the trap of basing your self worth on your net worth. What do you actually want in life?

Ego isn’t all bad. In fact it can help you improve and become the person you truly want to be. For example some have their ego tied to religious believes. “I’m a Christian therefore I act like this” where it becomes dangerous is when you become inauthentic because you’re trying to persuade others what you’re “ego” is. Ego is your self identity so keep it to your self. You don’t need to convince any one of who you are but you.

@Asia Verbrugge @Deleted Mini Habits by Stephen Guise is one of my favorites. Heard it's very similar to Atomic Habits
