People have to learn today to understand that we need suffering. The region of your brain responsible for generating pleasure and motivation is the same region involved in generating pain and suffering. Emotional pain and suffering.

It's a scale. So on one side is pleasure and on the other side is pain and suffering. It's like a seesaw.

If you are only subjecting yourself to easy things, only simple things, only quick rewards, your brain becomes unaccustomed to living with a problem, and life is not a 100 meter race, life is a gigantic marathon. People have lost the ability to live with boredom, because today a 6-year-old child sees more information in his life in a week than an adult from 1930 sees in his entire life. Man, this is teaching our brain not to live in boredom anymore.

And people have to understand that if you unbalance this thing, if you put only pleasure, only pleasure, only pleasure, pain and suffering will start to push to the other side. So in the absence of pleasure, you no longer know how to do anything, it hurts for you not to have that, not having pleasure starts to hurt. Never surrender to mediocrity.

Never wipe the blood in the eye. They want you to settle for little, little money, little fun, an average relationship, fair friendships, an average life. The world is chaotic, but it's not because the world is chaotic that you're going to turn to the chaos of the world.

Always turn to the individual and not what you have no control over. This means that you pay attention to what you have control over for yourself and not for the world as a whole, for the problems of the world, that you do not control. It's simple, if the world is tougher, get stronger.

And treat it all as if you were a game. Today you have the opportunity to play a video game in real life. If you're approaching 25 and you don't have an idea of what your future will be like, you don't have a career and you don't intend to be the best in your area or you don't have a great business idea, then it's time for you to start thinking what hole you're throwing your time into and wasting your vital energy.

Start thinking about how many hours a day you spend on social media admiring other people's lives and seeing how other people's lives are better than yours. It's actually not better than yours because those people do the same things as you. The thing is, you do it like it's a drug.

You consume this information like it's a drug. You're trying to get more and more connected when you really should be disconnecting from what doesn't matter to you. People complain that they are tired, unmotivated, discouraged, but they never stop to think about what are the things that are draining their vital energy.

The motivation is there, it has always been there. When you're unmotivated it's because something is draining your vital energy. What is draining your vital energy today?

Your motivation? Is it the queues, the traffic, Instagram, is it the drugs, the alcohol, is it the ideologies, is it the war of the sexes, is it a problematic relationship? Is it an unresolved crush, the ex who broke up with you, what is it that is draining your energy both physically and mentally?

Your biggest investment asset is not money it's your time, it's your energy. Where do you put your energy? Where do you put your time?

As much as it sounds like self-help talk, but the mathematics of success is very simple: Good habits plus a powerful body and mind plus knowledge equals success and reality creation. And even though victimism is fashionable nowadays, you don't need to be part of this trend. And never forget the further down you go, the more consistent your empire will be.
