It’s why I think succes is not so much a safe shore (final goal) you can reach but rather a never ending process you should persistently chart.
#PRINCIPLES TO LIVE BY HOW TO#
Welcome to the equanimity game, from Marcus Aurelius, or how to recover your balance as quickly as possible when life knocks you of the center. Grant Cardone before being successful faced adversity, drugs … and thanks to that he built resilience finding joy by helping people to reach their goals and building a great company via a show of style : but he has credibility vs fake instagram story telling.īut nothing is stable in life and we are always on a tight rope trying to find our balance. Even if you are successful in an extrinsic way, you will be less psychologically stable as people who are looking for intrinsic motivation. As Grant Cardone like to pitch : with money you can buy a good education, nice clothes, go to restaurant, take vacation, take care of your family … But I do think that money it’s a byproduct of our passion and Cardone is an awesome example by being a great entrepreneur and motivator. Of course you need a balance between the two : it’s not 100 % one and 0 % for other. That lead us to intrinsic motivation as being a better person, cultivating deeper relation, making contribution to the world etc. In fact, it’s more accurate to embrace a way of living, because circumstances can always change (setbacks, covid 19 …). When we imagine success or try to define it, we often picture the external circumstances that go with it such as : fame, power, wealth, prestige … purely an extrinsic motivation.
