Alex Hormozi Life advice 12: the sad man has only one wish #personaldevelopment #lifechanging

12. The Happy man has a thousand wishes. The sad man has one. When you are sad, you want to not be sad. That's the main focus. You want to feel better. And many times people will take the short term way of getting out of that, which is alcohol, drugs, etc. Because in the moment they can feel better, everyone. All of my focus was on feeling better. And so I couldn't actually have any energy left over to do stuff because all I was focused on was feeling better. And all I was spending all my day was in my head trying to not feel like and doing both short and long term things to do that. And so it was only when I came up with the mantra, which I have said before, but happiness, which sounds ironic because I said the person who's happy has a thousand wishes. But in choosing not to admit the deficiency between my current state and the future state of what I desire to be, I was able to accept where I was. And then the deficiency of not being good enough, not being happy enough, disintegrated in my mind. And then I was able to focus on just doing things. And then when I started doing things, I started making progress. When I started making progress, I started looking back and feeling proud of how far I had come because it was.
