The wealthy think in decades, not months or years. Shifting your time horizon from short-term gains to long-term returns changes how you behave and what you build. This reframe is the foundation of sustainable wealth.
What I didn't know at the time and what I wish someone would have told me at 21 years old really is the key to building significant wealth over a lifetime. And it is this: it's not about chasing the highest amount of yield in the shortest amount of time. It really is about trying to achieve the highest amount of return over the longest period of time. And really why that is so different is that it forces you to change your behavior. It forces you to change your mindset and stop thinking in months or years and start thinking in decades.
