In the past months there has been a lot of trolling and negativity on BHW.
From my view some people are quite upset with where the digital industry is headed, while others are trying to make the best out of it.

For over +five years I have been a big fan of interviews/documentaries about successful people.
Note that "successful" does not necessarily mean financial successes.
Success could be anything like extraordinary charisma, leadership, personal change, etc.

One of my most favorite ones is the D. Rubenstein show.
Here's a really nice episode:

What I personally enjoy hearing is what these people did in their twenties/thirties -- this allows me to self-reflect, self-assess and change myself where necessary.
But even more importantly I love learning about how these people think and talk.

A few other successful BHW members wrote about this --> our mindset is what determines our lives the most. I can speak from experience when I say that life is better when I'm mentally healthy, it seems good things are being attracted. And even if sh*t hits the fan and life looks like hell, our strength lies in how we deal with a situation.

Cheers all! :)
 
Thanks for sharing! I have always maintained that the greatest way to become wealthy is to surround yourself with wealthy people. Period

As Aristotele Onassis once wrote, "if you must, live in the cellar of a rich building.; go into debt to dine with the rich."

Do you mean this quote?

" To be happy make sure you are tanned, live in expensive buildings, even if you have to stay in the cellar, go out to expensive restaurants, even if you can only afford one drink and if you have to borrow, borrow a lot. "

You don't need to be rich to have a rich mindset, rich people are not people with money but those that know how to live their life and enjoy it
 
Watched whole video (totally enjoyed it), it's amazing I will definitely remember name Masayoshi Son. This man invested in Jack Ma/Alibaba when no one believed in it. I'm amazed!!!
 
I agree that winning mindset is absolutely important. It all starts from our head. However I don't count success if money doesn't come with it. I know many of you will dislike this, but if you have 1M followers on insta and ain't earning money - it isn't success. Every real success should bring money with it. Just something that I think.
 
Nice post.

I think if you want to be successful you should surround yourself with other successful people.

Again that doesn’t have to be financial success it could be any type of success.

Yup! Great find! That made a big impression on me when I first came across it.
 
[...] but if you have 1M followers on insta and ain't earning money - it isn't success.

Sorry, but I disagree with you. Platforms like YouTube, Facebook etc. were not built with the primary intention to make money (I'm talking about the customer). These platforms were built to broadcast yourself and NOT to sell yourself.

Even if customers are using these platforms to make money today by selling their self, there are still people who don't do this (or just in a very small way).

So no, a big reach means a big impact which can be used in any way to gain success ...not only big financial success.

Do you think everyone who goes to a gym and has a trained body need to be a personal trainer, fitness model, influencer etc. and make as much money as he can to call themselves successful? Definitely not!

It's not all about the money for everyone.
 
Unfortunately, most of the rich people I have met are corrupt and lack ethics. I think it is common here.
 
Wow, loved the video, didn't know the man. And yes, if you surround with successful people and have a healthy lifestyle is very difficult to not become successful as well.
 
Basically this guy (from the video), made a couple of million dollars by working just ""5 minutes"" a day.
While so many people are still struggling to make $50/day on this forum.
We can all learn something from such a mindset.

Well... I don't even have a clue of how can you develop an electronic dictionary. So I don't think is that easy to make earn millions in 5 minutes a day.

But I get your point with the 50$/month problem.

Yeah, I'm sure you get my point.
The guy didn't know how to make one either, he probably didn't even care -- but there was a demand in his life for such a thing, and maybe in the asian business community.
In my opinion that's how people become successful, they know they don't know but yet they still make it happen somehow.
 
One fact about these people whether it's Musk, Gates, Masayoshi Son, W. Buffet etc. they all have a positive thinking, Musk went almost bankrupt too but he didn't let any negative thoughts touch him.

So yeah, you should all start believing in attraction law but commit yourself at hard work.
 
Great share, I will check the video.

I have been looking for shows like this, where they interview and go in-depth with successful people. If you have others like that, please share those links as well.
