Give up the short term mindset

Successful people set long-term goals and they know for a fact that these aims are merely results of short-term habits that they need to do every single day, they realize that they need to dream big but they chunk it down small and they have these wins every single day but on the other hand, broke people and people who won't become successful have a short term mindset, everything they do is short termed, for example they believe in getting rich quick, they believe they want result like that, they believe there is a magic bullet that will solve all of their issues in one, while on the other hand, successful people realize that it the daily habits, it is the things you do every single day, those micro increments, that's what makes the biggest difference in the long term.

Give up on playing small

If you never try and actually grab the opportunities that are in front of you, if you never go out there, just put yourself out there and speak your own truth and do what you boldly want to do, not what your parents say what you need to do, not what your next door neighbour says, not what your friends say but what you say and decide to do.
The moment you actually take full ownership of the ship you are sailing and you become the captain and not the victim, that when your life truely changes, give up on playing small, dream freaking big, play it big, treat your life like an olympian, whatever it takes to push past yourself, realize that only winners run through the finish line, there are going to be days when you feel down, of course, everybody does but the ones who perceiver, the ones who actually get up and run through the finish line, they are the ones who are going to win.
