The biggest obstacle to getting rich isn’t lack of money. It’s staying comfortable for too long.

i find this video misguiding. spending more time doing sth doesn't necessarily mean succeeding in it. i've been spending all day long every day the last year and a half, yet i'm even worse than when i started, i assume i'm doing certain things wrong.

Hey friends, in this video I'm sharing the brutally honest truth about getting rich that is so simple but slightly inconvenient: it really does come down to how much of your discretionary time you spend actively trying to make money. I'll walk you through real examples from students in my Lifestyle Business Academy who are juggling full-time jobs and kids while still investing 10-20 hours a week into building businesses, plus the simple framework that connects TIME → ACTIONS → OUTPUTS → OUTCOMES → MONEY. This isn't about hustle culture or working yourself to death. It's about being honest with yourself about where your limited time actually goes. Hope you enjoy xx

Yes I have the goal of being financially free, but I'm also hate watching your Harry Potter references 😂😝

I know I'm really late to this video. This is because just like Ali asked, I've been putting in the time to improve my business and didn't have much time for YouTube.

Ali if you don't mind, please keep up this series! It'll really help beginners like us!~ 🙏🏾🙏🏾✨

I filled this 168 hours table and found a big flaw that makes it pointless.

My free time result was -40 hours per week. MINUS 40 hours :D
because this table does not "understand" multitasking.

I eat and watch tv series at the same time. In reality that takes me an hour. In this table it's registered as 1 hour for TV + 15min eating. Same with working and listening for podcasts. Working out and strategizing business things and so on.

The biggest leverage isn’t working harder - it’s being ruthless about where your time actually goes. Track it, act on it, and the results follow.

@Lukettobin
@

a lot of high schoolers follow up, you have to be responsible, and tell them they have to be realistic how transferable are the skills they are building. devoting 10 hours a day on science is way more transfereable than spending 10 hours playing video games.

Think of top athletes, soccer, track-field, they work full time and their career is about 10-15 years., they need to save up a lot early.
