Can You Choose To Be Painless? - Millionaire Success Habits

Here's a question for you. Is life easier living it the hard way, or is life harder living the easier way? With all the opportunities that exist today, why haven't you reached your next level of income, life and wealth? In most cases, we've been lied to. We've been told that if you find the right opportunity and you work hard, you can be successful. And that's simply not true. Millionaires, billionaires, and successful people have realized you need the foundation for wealth, the habits. And that's exactly what you'll be learning on the Millionaire Success Habits podcast. All success starts here. So David Kekage is a friend, a friend of a friend, really, but I've met him a couple times. Great guy. And he was paralyzed from the neck down. A guy that was into health and fitness and taking care of his body and living in a wheelchair, not being able to do anything for himself. He's thrived, thrived on a whole new level and does so much for innovating and helping other people with the same circumstances. But the reason I'm sharing this is because he did 30 KKJ credos to live by. If you want to live a joyful life, this is somebody in a wheelchair. Now, remember the obstacles he has every single day when he wakes up, can barely swallow on his own. I mean, think about that, right? So one of his credos is, if you live life the hard way, it's easy. And if you live life the easy way, it's hard. And here's what I equate that to. We have to pick our pain. Think about that. Now, let's just use a silly analogy. Is working out easy? No, it's a pain in the butt. Going to the gym, it might be hard. It's painful, right? But not exercising and not working out, will that be painful someday in your life, Will it be that you're out of shape and you get heart failure? Will it be out of shape and you're overweight and get diabetes? Will it be out of shape that you. You don't have muscle tone and you break a hip someday? I mean, you might be young, not thinking about that now, but living the easy way of no. Working out, can that be more painful? Absolutely. What about eating healthy? Can it be painful to eat the right food and not choose the greasy fried food and not get up and have a coffee and a donut and try to have green juices and live green veggies and eat lean protein and do those things? Is that a pain? Yeah, and it's kind of Hard. It's the hard way. It's the hard way, but it gives you an easy life. So you're full of abundance, joy. I mean, you feel healthy, you want to thrive. You can run. If you have kids, you can move or when you have kids someday, or you can live to see your great grandchildren. Right? So living the hard way, meaning do the right thing, eat the right food, work out, maybe a little hard, but that's the path to an easy life. If you want to live the easy way now and not work out and eat terrible food, maybe it's temporarily easy, but will that give you long term health and satisfaction? And even if you make the money without your health, are you really wealthy? No. Right? But think about that also with your success. This is the Millionaire Success Habits podcast. But the foundation for success is if I gave you the tools to make money, but didn't share with you that you should be fulfilled and satisfied and healthy, then I'm just a fraud. Because it all ties together. If you got money out of the way today, the next thing you would be worried about or thinking about is how do you live the best version of you? How do you be the best mom, dad, son, brother, cousin, you know, spouse, Right? So I want you to think about it when it comes to your next level of income, next level of long term wealth, or starting a side business. The easy way is hard in the long run. The easy way is to settle for the job that you're in that's killing you. The easy way is, is to look for a magic money machine online and not spend time with your habits. The easy way is hope that someone does it for you. The easy way is to hope the government changes the rules and more money comes to you. That's all. The easy way. And what do you do? You sit around and hope for years and years and years and then you look back at the end of your life and time is gone. You look back at the end of your life and you go, I wish I would have gone after it harder in the beginning. So the hard way may be listening to podcasts like this, reading books like Millionaire Success Habits and all the other books that come from people that are actually doing it, or get enrolled in courses or get involved in a mastermind, or dig deep to find the research to know if you're in the right path, if you're in a future proof industry or not. Yeah, that might be a little harder now. It might be harder now to wake up when everybody in your family tells you you're insane. When your friends and relatives say you should be happy with the life you have, or people tell you you don't have enough money, you don't have the right education, you don't live in the right area, you don't have the right pedigree, you didn't get the right degree. People can all tell you that. And it's hard to overcome them. It's hard to overcome getting up and going for it. It's hard to overcome procrastination. It's hard to overcome getting sucked into social media. Go check your bank account and two hours go by going down rabbit holes of stupid things, that's hard. It's hard if you're in a relationship and the other person thinks that you should be strict and steady in your job and do the right thing and follow the rules, it's hard to step out of the line when 98% of the world listen to somebody else. They live a mediocre life, they live an okay life. Do you want to live an okay life or do you want to live an outstanding life? Do you want to live a good life? How's your relationship? Good. How's your health? Good. How's your income? Good. How's your job? Good. Do you want to live good or do you want to live excellence? Do you want to live great? Do you want to live an outstanding life? If we do, then David Kekich has it right. The Kekich credo that if you want to live the hard way now gives you the easy life. The easy way now gives you the hard life. So why not just declare today that the easy road is not for you? The easy road is what everybody takes. Those that aren't in shape, those that aren't happy, those that don't have good relationships, those that don't make the money. I'm not criticizing them because if they're happy, great. But if you're listening to me, you're not happy with that road. I mean, think about it. With relationships. The easy way is to ignore the connection is gone. The easy way is to ignore that the intimacy is gone. The easy way is to go out and have an affair to fill the. The easy way is to fill yourself with hobbies and extra work so you don't have to face the relationship. That's easy. But does that end in a hard way? Does that end in the end of a relationship? The breaking up of a family, scandal, money? Yeah. I'm surely not saying this like I have every area of my life perfect. I'm just saying from Witnessing this is the easy way. Now the hard way is say, screw it. Today I'm gonna schedule us for therapy. Today I'm gonna listen more than I talk. Today, I'm gonna read a book on fix. Today I'm going to be a better man. I'm going to be a better woman. Today, I'm going to make a difference. Is that harder now? Yes. But is it easier in the long run? Hell yes. So again, I'm going to say the same words. Why not? Today, listening to me on this Millionaire Success Habits podcast. Watching or listening? Decide that today is the day that you'll declare to live life the hard way and be proud of it. Because if we live the hard way now, if we hustle now, if we grind now, we get the byproduct of living an easier tomorrow.
