10. Make the money, don’t let it make you. The best thing about you shouldn’t be that you have money. If you all of a sudden go broke tomorrow, are people still going to want to be your friend?
9. Don’t let the haters get you down. Haters are the people that put you or your ideas down, maybe because they don’t like you or they’re too stupid to have come up with that idea themselves. Either way they’re going to want to watch you fail and make your road to success that much harder, don’t let their negativity hold you back or discourage you. Use it as fuel to your fire, it’ll make you want it that much more.
8. Always follow through with what you say, even if you were drunk when you said it. People hate the person that says they’ll do this and this for them but never seem to follow through. Don’t be that person. If you say something or say you’re going to do something, then follow through with it or else keep your mouth shut.
7. Surround yourself with successful people. You’re going to want to learn from their success and how they did it and they can help you along. Don’t keep freeloaders, lazy people, and haters for company. They’ll hold you back and when you do make it, then you’ll break your back trying to support them.
6. Learn from the mistakes of others because you don’t want to make all the mistakes yourself. If you see someone else mess up, learn from it. It can save you a big headache and time by not making the same mistake they did.
5. View the cup as half full. If you expect something to fail because you don’t want to be let down, then you deserve to be let down. If you’re expecting to be let down, you’re not going to put your best effort into it. Simple as that. You don’t go into a project expecting it to fail, why would you do the project then? Think about the law of attraction. By thinking negatively you’re already off to the wrong start. No one wants to fail so why not hope for the best and let good things happen.
4. Have an emergency fund. Stuff always comes up when you least expect it. Don’t be caught off guard and end up struggling because you couldn’t put a little money away for a rainy day. Trust me when I say that emergency’s have a tendency to come up at the worst times.
3. Always remember where you came from and the people who were there originally for you. You can be the most successful person in the world but it’ll be meaningless if you don’t remember what it was like when you were unsuccessful. Forgetting about the people who believed in you when you had nothing is also a big no no. There’s a lot of haters out there and people who truly believe in you is a rare thing, never forget those people.
2. Try not to hold a grudge too long, it’ll leave you bitter and jaded. What’s the point of being mad for the rest of your life? Move on and learn from it. Holding that anger inside you will only give it time to boil up and eat away at you inside and eventually leave you a bitter mess.
1. Have a code. Live by it and stand up for it. A code is a set of rules you live your life by that you would never break for anyone or anything. You develop these rules by things you encounter every day. It could be something as simple as never cheating on a test or as complicated as never stealing unless there’s no other way to provide for your family. There’s no right or wrong here to anyone other than you.
