A short motivational message (YouTube #shorts) by Vishen Lakhiani arguing that people receive what they tolerate: their current life reflects their minimum standards. He urges listeners to identify and raise their minimum—especially with money—by examining bank accounts/revenue, expressing gratitude, and choosing to lift financial and personal standards to serve and allocate more resources.
Chapters
We don't always get in life what we dream about, but we do get what we tolerate. We are living into our minimum standard right now. And if you're not sure what your minimum standard is with money, just take a look at your money. It's very simple. Look at your bank account, look at your savings account, look at your revenue. Cash in, cash out, all of it. That is your minimum standard. So, yes, we need a vision, we need a dream, we need precise goals. We need to choose that. And what if you focused on simply raising up your minimum? What if you focused instead on going, okay, I'm happy, I'm grateful for my relationship and my results with money in this way, and I no longer tolerate that. I'm grateful, but I'm done with $10 million a year. I'm raising this up. I'm here for more. I'm here to serve more. I'm here to be the vessel to allocate more resources in the world. We're shifting and raising that minimum standard. Again, it's a choice. And get curious with these pieces.
